Candida albicans is an opportunistic pathogen that causes gastrointestinal (GI) candidiasis closely associated with intestinal inflammation and dysbiosis. Drug resistance, side effects of available antifungal agents, and the high recurrence of candidiasis highlight the need for new treatments. We investigated the effects of hydroethanolic extracts of licorice root (LRE) and walnut leaf (WLE) on GI colonization by C.

Article Synopsis
  • Bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in multiple myeloma (MM) are abnormal and promote tumor growth and drug resistance through higher expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4).
  • Activation of TLR4 in MM MSCs enhances factors like CD54 and interleukin-6 (IL-6), which facilitate communication between MSCs and MM cells, impacting disease progression.
  • Targeting TLR4 with antagonists shows promise in reducing MM cell growth support from MSCs and delaying disease progression in mouse models, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy.
