AML is an aggressive malignancy of immature myeloid progenitor cells. Discovering effective treatments for AML through cell differentiation and anti-proliferation remains a significant challenge. Building on previous studies on CDK2 PROTACs with differentiation-inducing properties, this research aims to enhance CDKs degradation through structural optimization to facilitate the differentiation and inhibit the proliferation of AML cells. Compound C3, featuring a 4-methylpiperidine ring linker, effectively degraded CDK2 with a DC value of 18.73 ± 10.78 nM, and stimulated 72.77 ± 3.51 % cell differentiation at 6.25 nM in HL-60 cells. Moreover, C3 exhibited potent anti-proliferative activity against various AML cell types. Degradation selectivity analysis indicated that C3 could be endowed with efficient degradation of CDK2/4/6/9 and FLT3, especially FLT3-ITD in MV4-11 cells. These findings propose that C3 combined targeting CDK2/4/6/9 and FLT3 with enhanced differentiation and proliferation inhibition, which holds promise as a potential treatment for AML.

Correlations of the expression of Cx43, SCF, p-cyclin E1 (Ser73), p-cyclin E1 (Thr77) and p-cyclin E1 (Thr395) in colon cancer tissues.

Background: Previous cellular studies have demonstrated that elevated expression of Cx43 promotes the degradation of cyclin E1 and inhibits cell proliferation through ubiquitination. Conversely, reduced expression results in a loss of this capacity to facilitate cyclin E degradation. The ubiquitination and degradation of cyclin E1 may be associated with phosphorylation at specific sites on the protein, with Cx43 potentially enhancing this process by facilitating the phosphorylation of these critical residues
Aim: To investigate the correlation between expression of Cx43, SKP1/Cullin1/F-box (SCF), p-cyclin E1 (ser73, thr77, thr395) and clinicopathological indexes in colon cancer.

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an inflammation-associated tumor with a dismal prognosis. Immunotherapy has become an important treatment strategy for HCC, as immunity is closely related to inflammation in the tumor microenvironment. Inflammation regulates the expression of programmed death ligand-1 (PD-L1) in the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and affects immunotherapy efficacy.

Determining the differential diagnosis of small scalp cysts identified on a fetus is difficult. In particular, many physicians have difficulty differentiating small meningoceles from small scalp cysts during the prenatal period. Volume contrast imaging increases contrast between tissues, thereby allowing an enhanced view of target structures.

Objective: Chronic wounds are a common clinical problem that necessitate the exploration of novel regenerative therapies. We report a method to investigate the in vitro wound healing capacity of an innovative biomaterial, which is based on amniotic membrane-derived stem cells (AMSCs) embedded in an alginate hydrogel matrix. The aim of this study was to prepare an sodium alginate-based hydrogel, cross-linked calcium chloride (CaCl with the active ingredient AMSC (AMSC/Alg-H) and to evaluate its in vitro effectiveness for wound closure.

Bone metastasis and skeletal-related complications are primary causes of mortality in advanced-stage prostate cancer (PCa). Epigenetic regulation, particularly histone modification, plays a key role in this process; however, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In mouse models, JARID1D was an important mediator of both visceral and bone metastases.
