AI Article Synopsis

  • - The Institute for Radiological Science, QST, and IES have conducted significant animal experiments to analyze radiation risks related to life expectancy and cancer rates.
  • - Due to economic, practical, and ethical challenges, there's a need to store data and biological samples from these experiments for future research and sharing.
  • - QST/NIRS has created J-SHARE, an archive to store and promote collaboration on radiation biology research, and aims to integrate data and tissue specimens from IES to enhance knowledge on radiation risk assessment and protection.

Article Abstract

Institute for Radiological Science (NIRS), National Institutes for Quantum Science and Technology (QST), and Institute for Environmental Sciences (IES) have conducted large-scale animal experiments for radiation risk analyses in terms of life shortening and cancer prevalence. It is important to store data and biological samples from these large-scale experiments for sharing and future use since the economic and practical limitations, as well as the ethical considerations, make it difficult. QST/NIRS established an archive called the Japan Storehouse of Animal Radiobiology Experiments (J-SHARE) for the purpose of storing and sharing these historic collections. We plan to integrate the data and tissue specimen images obtained at the IES into J-SHARE by standardizing the archive format, with the aim of maximizing the results of radiation biology research. This integration is expected to contribute to the generation of new knowledge for radiation risk assessment and the provision of scientifically based information on radiation protection.

Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) represents the second cause of vaginal infections in childbearing-age women. It mainly affects the vulva and vagina; however, other organs can be compromised, with consequences that are not well known yet. To evaluate the ability of Candida albicans, inoculated into the vaginal lumen of mice, to migrate to the uterus and ovaries.

Familial Mediterranean fever with sigmoid colon stricture.

Clin J Gastroenterol

January 2025

Department of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, Tokyo Medical University Hospital, 6-7-1, Nishi-shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, 160-0023, Japan.

We describe a case of familial Mediterranean fever (FMF) with sigmoid colon stricture. The patient, a woman in her 30 s, had a 12-year history of ileocolitis-type Crohn's disease. The colonoscope could not pass because of the sigmoid colon stricture, and the patient was referred to our hospital with complaints of abdominal pain and fever.

Preclinical evaluation of the potential PARP-imaging probe [carbonyl-C]DPQ.

EJNMMI Radiopharm Chem

January 2025

Division of Nuclear Medicine, Department of Biomedical Imaging and Image-Guided Therapy, Medical University of Vienna, Vienna, Austria.

Background: Poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) enzymes are crucial for the repair of DNA single-strand breaks and have become key therapeutic targets in homologous recombination-deficient cancers, including prostate cancer. To enable non-invasive monitoring of PARP-1 expression, several PARP-1-targeting positron emission tomography (PET) tracers have been developed. Here, we aimed to preclinically investigate [carbonyl-C]DPQ as an alternative PARP-1 PET tracer as it features a strongly distinct chemotype compared to the frontrunners [F]FluorThanatrace and [F]PARPi.

Targeting on the PI3K/mTOR: a potential treatment strategy for clear cell ovarian carcinoma.

Cancer Chemother Pharmacol

January 2025

Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, 200011, China.

Purpose: Ovarian clear cell carcinoma is a highly malignant gynecological tumor characterized by a high rate of chemotherapy resistance and poor prognosis. The PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway is well-known to be closely related to the progression of various malignancies, and recent studies have indicated that this pathway may play a critical role in the progression and worsening of OCCC.

Methods: In this study, we investigated the combined effects of WX390, a dual inhibitor of PI3K/mTOR, and cisplatin on OCCC through both in vitro and in vivo experiments to further elucidate their therapeutic effects.
