Recent advances in the anti-tumor activities of saponins through cholesterol regulation.
Front Pharmacol
January 2025
School of Pharmacy, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai, China.
Abnormal cholesterol metabolism has become a popular therapeutic target in cancer therapy. In recent years there has been a surge in interest in the anti-tumor activities of saponins, particularly their ability to disrupt cholesterol homeostasis in tumor cells. Cholesterol regulation by saponins is a complex process that involves multiple mechanisms.

JAMA Cardiol
January 2025
National Amyloidosis Centre, Division of Medicine, University College London, Royal Free Hospital, London, United Kingdom.
Importance: Patients with transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloid infiltration are increasingly diagnosed at earlier disease stages with no heart failure (HF) symptoms and a wide range of cardiac amyloid infiltration.
Objective: To characterize the clinical phenotype and natural history of asymptomatic patients with ATTR cardiac amyloid infiltration.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This cohort study analyzed data of all patients at 12 international centers for amyloidosis from January 1, 2008, through December 31, 2023.
Diagnostic delay in cerebral creatine deficiency disorders: lessons learned from a cross-sectional single center study, and guanidinoacetate and creatine measurements in Switzerland between 2015 and 2023.
Mol Cell Pediatr
January 2025
Division of Metabolism and Children`s Research Center, University Children's Hospital Zurich, Lenggstr. 30, 8008, Zurich, Switzerland.
Background: Cerebral creatine deficiency disorders (CCDD) are rare diseases caused by defects in the enzymes L-arginine: glycine amidinotransferase (AGAT) or guanidinoacetate-N-methyltransferase (GAMT), which are involved in synthesis of creatine; or by a defect in the creatine transporter (CRTR), which is essential for uptake of creatine as important energy source into the target cells. Patients with CCDD can present with a variety of unspecific symptoms: global developmental delay, speech-language disorder, behavioral abnormalities and seizures. Early treatment initiation is essential in AGAT and GAMT deficiencies to achieve a favorable outcome.

Women living with HIV (WLWH) are at a particularly high risk of developing for high-grade cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN2/3) and cervical cancer, and the standard surgical treatment is far less effective in this population. Thus, research on medical therapies and combination treatment options remain a priority.

Neurology
February 2025
Departments of Child Neurology and General Practice, University of Turku and Turku University Hospital, Finland.
Background And Objectives: Previous research has demonstrated increased brain amyloid plaque load in individuals with childhood-onset epilepsy in late middle age. However, the trajectory of this process is not yet known. The aim of this study was to determine whether individuals with a history of childhood-onset epilepsy show progressive brain aging in amyloid accumulation in late adulthood (Turku Adult Childhood-Onset Epilepsy study, TACOE).
