Interstitial cell tumor of the testis is a rare tumor in humans. There have been 39 cases reported in children and 13 malignant tumors in adults. Two cases of interstitial cell tumor in childhood, 5 benign types in adults, and 2 malignant tumors are presented herein. In regard to the therapeutic consequences, a plea is made to define the malignant potential of the tumor on histologic criteria alone.

The therapeutic window of antibody drug-conjugates (ADC) remains challenging due to safety issues such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) observed with specific deruxtecan-based ADCs. To avoid ILD, we designed M9140 by conjugating the maleimide-containing hydrophilic β-glucuronide linker to exatecan and our anti-CEACAM5 (CarcinoEmbryonic Antigen-related Cell Adhesion Molecule 5) specific antibody. Following repeated iv-infusion at 3 to 30 mg/kg of M9140 every 3 weeks, the pathological findings obtained in cynomolgus monkeys were confined to gastrointestinal and hematolymphoid tissues and resembled the toxicity of exatecan.

Pemetrexed is a chemotherapeutic, antimetabolite agent that has been used in oncology to treat diseases such as metastatic non-small cell lung cancer and unresectable malignant pleural mesothelioma. Pemetrexed use may result in pseudocellulitis, which presents as poorly demarcated patches or plaques with erythema, edema, warmth, and tenderness. These lesions can present unilaterally or bilaterally on the lower extremities.

Interstitial lung disease (ILD) is known to be a major complication of systemic sclerosis (SSc) and a leading cause of death in SSc patients. As the most common type of ILD, the pathogenesis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) has not been fully elucidated. In this study, weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA), protein‒protein interaction, Kaplan-Meier curve, univariate Cox analysis and machine learning methods were used on datasets from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.

Background: Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fibrosing interstitial pneumonia with restrictive ventilation. Recently, the structural and functional defects of small airways have received attention in the early pathogenesis of IPF. This study aimed to elucidate the characteristics of small airway epithelial dysfunction in patients with IPF and explore novel therapeutic interventions to impede IPF progression by targeting the dysfunctional small airways.

A preclinical study on effect of betanin on sodium fluoride induced hepatorenal toxicity in wistar rats.

J Complement Integr Med

January 2025

Department of Basic Medical Sciences, Manipal, Manipal Academy of Higher Education, Manipal, Karnataka, India.

Background: Excessive fluoride exposure leads to increased oxidative stress and lipid peroxidation, causing harmful effects on the metabolic organs in the human body. Betanin, a pigment obtained from beetroot, is seen to have powerful anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. The study was conducted to determine the role of betanin in fluoride induced hepato-renal toxicity in Wistar rats.
