Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most diagnosed cancer in men. In recent years, nuclear medicine has played an expanding role in diagnosing, staging, monitoring, and treating PCa. Specifically, the introduction of prostate-specific membrane antigen PET/computed tomography has significantly contributed to detecting locoregional and distant disease. Radioligand therapy, with its capacity to induce highly selective cytotoxic effects, is progressively being integrated into PCa therapy. The advent of novel therapeutic agents, additional indications, and a more comprehensive integration between nuclear imaging and therapy, represent the forefront of nuclear medicine in PCa.

The P2X4 receptor is implicated in various pathological conditions, including neuropathic pain and cancer. This study reports the development of 1,4-naphthodiazepinedione-based P2X4 receptor antagonists aimed at both therapeutic applications and potential use as PET tracers for imaging P2X4 receptor expression in cancer. Structure-activity relationship studies aided by docking studies and molecular dynamics simulations led to a series of compounds with potent P2X4 receptor antagonism, promising inhibition of interleukin-1β release in THP-1 cells and suitability for radiolabeling with fluorine-18.

Background And Objectives: Hyperacute cardiac CT has shown greater yield for intracardiac thrombus identification compared with transthoracic echocardiography. However, routine use comes with higher cost and additional contrast and radiation exposure. Pretest identification of patients with low probability of thrombus would enable rationalization of its use.

Autophagic flux blockade and excessive oxidative stress play important roles in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular calcification (VC). Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is an important regulator of many autophagy-lysosomal related components, which is mainly involved in promoting autophagy process in cells. Nuclear factor erythroid-2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) antioxidant system is considered as one of the key pathways in response to intracellular oxidative stress.

Exercising regularly promotes health, but these benefits are complicated by acute inflammation induced by exercise. A potential source of inflammation is cell-free DNA (cfDNA), yet the cellular origins, molecular causes, and immune system interactions of exercise-induced cfDNA are unclear. To study these, 10 healthy individuals were randomized to a 12-wk exercise program of either high-intensity tactical training (HITT) or traditional moderate-intensity training (TRAD).

Testosterone, an essential sex steroid hormone, influences brain health by impacting neurophysiology and neuropathology throughout the lifespan in both genders. However, human research in this area is limited, particularly in women. This study examines the associations between testosterone levels, gray matter volume (GMV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF) in midlife individuals at risk for Alzheimer's disease (AD), according to sex and menopausal status.
