BDNF Val66Met protects oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy in patients with colorectal cancer. (PubMed, Sci Transl Med)
On the basis of these findings, we evaluated two therapeutic strategies: the p75NTR modulator LM11A-31 and a compound we have developed, CN016. The BDNF Met66 variant shows about 49% prevalence in East Asian populations and 1 to 20% in other ethnic groups, suggesting population-specific susceptibility to CIPN. These findings establish BDNF genetic variation as a crucial determinant of CIPN risk and validate two promising therapeutic approaches, providing a foundation for personalized neuroprotective strategies in cancer treatment.

Chrysin ameliorates methotrexate-induced hippocampal neurogenesis impairment by suppressing of oxidative stress and upregulating antioxidant enzyme activity in rodents. (PubMed, PLoS One)
However, chrysin significantly reversed the effects of MTX on these parameters. In conclusion, chrysin exhibits neuroprotective effects against MTX-induced neurogenesis impairment by upregulating antioxidant enzyme activity, reducing oxidative stress, and improving protein expression related to neurogenesis.

The correlation between YTHDF1 gene polymorphism and cognitive dysfunction after radiotherapy for glioma. (PubMed, Int J Neurosci)
After controlling for potential confounders, including WHO grade, tumor volume, BDNF levels, and radiotherapy dose, carriers of the G allele (A/G + G/G genotypes) at rs6090311 demonstrated a significantly lower risk of developing post-radiotherapy cognitive dysfunction (OR = 0.319, 95% CI: 0.111-0.916). YTHDF1 overexpression is associated with post-radiotherapy cognitive dysfunction in glioma patients, and the rs6090311 G allele may act as a protective genetic marker for this complication.

Gut microbiota perturbation and systemic inflammation are associated with salcaprozate sodium (SNAC)-enabled oral semaglutide delivery. (PubMed, J Control Release)
Spearman correlations linked Muribaculaceae and Bacteroidaceae loss with decreased saccharolytic enzyme abundance, lower SCFA levels, and increased TNF-α. While these findings are associative and require mechanistic validation, they indicate that chronic SNAC exposure is linked to concurrent microbial, metabolic, and inflammatory marker changes in healthy rats, highlighting the potential need for alternative, microbiota-safe strategies for oral peptide delivery.

Categorization of chronic pain subtypes and contributing biomarkers in heart failure. (PubMed, Eur J Cardiovasc Nurs)
In this study, chronic pain and its association with underlying biomarkers were characterized. Future research with a larger sample is needed to understand the unique contributions of biomarkers with targeted pain phenotypes.

Chemotherapy-induced gut microbiota dysbiosis exacerbates cancer-related fatigue in breast cancer patients via neuroimmune-endocrine indicators. (PubMed, Front Oncol)
Baseline GM characteristics predict the risk and severity of chemotherapy-induced CRF, potentially through modulation of neuroimmune-endocrine pathways via gut-brain axis. These findings underscore the potential role of GM as a predictive biomarker and a therapeutic target for chemotherapy-induced CRF.

Effects of crocetin, a constituent of saffron, on indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer and related anxiety-like behavior in rats. (PubMed, Phytomedicine)
CRT and LAP caused protective effects against IND-induced gastric ulcer and by antioxidative, anti-inflammatory, anti-apoptotic and PGE2-increasing activities. Anxiolytic effects of CRT and LAP were also observed.

Understanding the role of diabetes mellitus on symptomatic neuroma development and identifying the ideal patient for prophylactic surgical management. (PubMed, Arch Orthop Trauma Surg)
Although surgical approaches such as TMR and RPNI have shown potential in reducing neuroma-related pain, further studies are needed to ensure that this benefit extends to diabetic patients whose disease puts them at increased risk of postoperative complications. Additional studies are required to confirm these findings and optimize surgical strategies for high-risk patient populations.

Vincamine as a GPR40 agonist shows potential in treating female Alzheimer's disease. (PubMed, Phytomedicine)
To our knowledge, our study provides the first identification of the specific ERβ-binding regions and key residues within the GPR40 promoter, offering novel mechanistic insight into their transcriptional regulation. Furthermore, our work establishes ERβ/GPR40 axis as a potentially therapeutic strategy for female AD and highlight the medication interest of Vin in treating this disease.

PD-L1 expression on circulating tumor cells for predicting clinical outcomes in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma receiving PD-(L)1 blockade and targeted therapy. (PubMed, J Immunother Cancer)
PD-L1+CTCs are potential indicators correlating with the shorter PFS and OS of immunotherapy-based treatment in patients with advanced HCC. The "PD-L1+CTC Low & Fewer" classification was associated with better clinical outcomes and immune-related molecules.

Seric Molecular Markers Correlated with Stroke Rehabilitation Outcomes: A Narrative Review. (PubMed, Life (Basel))
While promising, the translation of these biomarkers into clinical practice is hindered by methodological limitations, including assay heterogeneity and lack of large-scale validation. Future standardization of these molecular signatures is a critical step toward implementing precision medicine in stroke rehabilitation.
