Longitudinal proteomic analysis of GCF in regenerative healing of molar furcation degree II defects treated with OFD, EMD, or A-PRF + : a pilot study. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
High baseline cholesterol and creatinine may impair periodontal regeneration. Distinct proteomic signatures suggest differential biological pathways underlying healing across OFD, EMD, and A-PRF + procedures.

Integration of TWAS with single-cell and spatial transcriptomics identifies TLR1 as a susceptibility gene and therapeutic target in the breast cancer tumor microenvironment. (PubMed, Int J Biol Macromol)
Notably, TLR1 may serve as a drug target, with compounds such as Doxorubicin and Etoposide identified as potential candidates. In conclusion, ADCY3, CASP8, GRHL1, HELQ, and TLR1, as genetic susceptibility genes for breast cancer, hold significant value in understanding tumor development and advancing therapy.

Folic acid-decorated tamoxifen-loaded covalent organic framework induces apoptosis in MCF-7 breast cancer cells via BAX/Caspase-8 upregulation. (PubMed, Cell Mol Biol (Noisy-le-grand))
Collectively, our findings demonstrate that the FA-conjugated COF can efficiently deliver TMX to MCF-7 cells via folate receptor-mediated endocytosis, leading to potent cancer cell destruction. This study underscores the potential of functionalized COFs as promising targeted drug delivery platforms for breast cancer treatment.

The Contribution of Genetic Modifiers to Ovarian Cancer Risk in BRCA1 and BRCA2 Pathogenic Variant Carriers. (PubMed, Cancers (Basel))
The analysis identified 11 variants affecting both BRCA1 and BRCA2 carriers, most of which increase risk, including the following: IRS1, RSPO1, SYNPO2, BABAM1, MRPL34, PLEKHM1, and TIPARP...The only SNP reaching genome-wide significance (p < 5 × 10-8) was in BNC2. The article summarizes the growing number of genetic modifiers of ovarian cancer risk among BRCA1/2 carriers and highlights their potential to improve individualized risk assessment, enhance patient stratification, support personalized prevention and surveillance strategies, deepen the understanding of disease biology, and identify potential therapeutic targets.

Cytotoxic Effect of a β1,4-Galactosyltransferase Inhibitor in Hepatic Carcinoma Cells. (PubMed, Cells)
Furthermore, 612 activates apoptosis through ER stress-associated pathways by downregulating the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-2 and upregulating pro-apoptotic proteins Bax and Bak, along with activation of caspase-3, -8, and -9. Collectively, these findings identify 612 as a promising anti-cancer candidate targeting β4GalTs-overexpressing HCC cells and warrant further therapeutic development.

EGCG promotes apoptosis in BT-549 triple-negative breast cancer cells by targeting STAT3. (PubMed, Transl Cancer Res)
Thus, EGCG could be a promising therapeutic candidate for targeting STAT3-mediated mechanisms in TNBC. Further research should be conducted to examine the clinical application of EGCG.

Evaluation of the Effects of Newcastle Disease Virus as an Oncolytic Virus on the Expression of Apoptosis-related Genes in TC-1 Cell Line. (PubMed, Iran J Allergy Asthma Immunol)
NDV-WTS demonstrated remarkable efficacy in treating lung cancer and HPV-associated tumors. Based on the results of the present study, the use of Newcastle disease virus in the treatment of lung cancer and HPV-associated tumors may be beneficial, which requires further studies and clinical trials.

Plasma-targeted proteomic and lipidomic profiling of MASLD, MASH, and hepatitis C virus infection. (PubMed, Clin Proteomics)
The results of this research provide value to the field of proteomics as a large-scale, reproducible, and hypothesis-generating plasma dual-omics reference dataset. This study was not designed to establish diagnostic biomarkers, to assess clinical discriminative performance, or to imply causal mechanisms. Instead, by emphasizing reproduciblilty across independent cohorts, we provide a plasma dual-omics reference dataset that captures coordinated immune and lipid metabolic alterations associated with chronic liver disease severity. These data provide a framework and resource for future studies researching risk stratification, therapeutic monitoring, and mechanistic validation in chronic liver disease.

Rhein protects against renal aging and fibrotic injury by multiple targets through inhibition of TNF-α-mediated autophagy and necroptosis crosstalk. (PubMed, Front Pharmacol)
Using D-galactose (D-gal)-treated NRK-52E cells and aged rats, we assessed rhein's effects with/without mTOR regulators (rapamycin/MHY1485) or etanercept (TNF-α inhibitor). In conclusion, rhein protected the kidneys by activating p-mTOR and downregulating TNF-α, necroptosis and autophagy. Rhein mitigates renal aging and fibrotic injury by targeting TNF-α-mediated autophagy-necroptosis crosstalk, positioning it as a novel multi-target therapeutic agent for age-related kidney injury.

Harmine Derivatives as Anticancer Agents Endowed With Potent and Selective Antileukemia Activity: Synthesis, Biological Evaluation, Proapoptotic and Genotoxic Activity. (PubMed, Arch Pharm (Weinheim))
Importantly, compound 6 exhibited low inhibitory activity against monoamine oxidase A (MAO-A) and did not promote reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, minimizing potential off-target effects. Together, these findings support the potential of compound 6 as a selective and effective candidate for antileukemia therapy.

30-hydroxygambogic acid activates overlapping and independent apoptotic pathways in HPV positive and HPV negative oral cancer cells. (PubMed, Tumour Virus Res)
We found that treatment with GA-OH affects the viability of both HPV(+) and HPV(-) oral cancer cells. Further analysis of gene expression patterns of these cell lines showed that GA-OH induces cell death through both independent and overlapping apoptotic pathways by altering gene expression in both HPV(+) and HPV(-) cancer cells.
