Clinical observation of Danlou tablets combined with aspirin for phlegm and blood stasis syndrome in coronary heart disease: impact on related serum factors. (PubMed, Am J Transl Res)
The combination of Danlou tablets and aspirin significantly improves clinical symptoms in CHD patients with phlegm and blood stasis syndrome, reduces serum sPLA2, LP-PLA2, and ox-LDL levels, and inhibits inflammatory responses, suggesting this combination could provide a beneficial adjunctive therapy for managing CHD in these patients. This study serves as a reference for further research on Danlou tablets' role in CHD.

A case report of a 14-year-old male patient with large vessel vasculitis following COVID-19. (PubMed, Mod Rheumatol Case Rep)
Upon initiation of high-dose immunoglobulin therapy and aspirin, his fever subsided, and his inflammatory markers and imaging findings normalised...Importantly, IL-17A and tumour necrosis factor-α levels were normal, as elevations in these cytokines have been linked to TAK recurrence. Notably, some cases of LVV following COVID-19 do not respond well to treatment; further research, including case accumulation and cytokine profile analysis, is needed to better predict prognosis.

Targeting Arachidonic Acid Metabolism Enhances Immunotherapy Efficacy in ARID1A-Deficient Colorectal Cancer. (PubMed, Cancer Res)
The arachidonic acid pathway inhibitor aspirin selectively inhibited the growth of ARID1A-deficient CRC, and aspirin sensitized tumors lacking ARID1A to immunotherapy. Together, these findings suggest that blocking arachidonic acid metabolism can enhance immune responses against tumors by activating CD8+ T cells and inhibiting VM, which synergizes with ICIs to improve treatment of ARID1A-deficient CRC.

Multifunctional Indomethacin Conjugates for the Development of Nanosystems Targeting Cancer Treatment. (PubMed, Int J Nanomedicine)
While free IND was active at a concentration of 270.5 μM, in the form of the phospholipid conjugate (IND-OA-PC), it inhibited the growth of cancer cells at 67.5 μM and after conjugate encapsulation (IND-OA-PC-NLC) it was effective at only 10.3 μM. Our study revealed that the conjugation of NSAID with phosphatidylcholine and its combination with nanotechnology techniques create opportunities to repurpose well-known drugs from this group for new therapeutic applications.

In addition, the animals treated with IC-Sf did not present toxic effects. In conclusion, IC-Sf protected the gastrointestinal tract against the harmful effects of naproxen by inhibiting the inflammatory response and lipid peroxidation, suggesting its potential as a new therapeutic agent or food additive.

Garlic peel extract as an antioxidant inhibits triple-negative breast tumor growth and angiogenesis by inhibiting cyclooxygenase-2 expression. (PubMed, Food Sci Nutr)
Immunohistochemistry was employed to assess the expression levels of COX-2, CD31, VEGFA, MMP2, and MMP9 in tumor tissues in order to investigate the antioxidant properties of garlic peel extract, specifically its ability to suppress COX-2 expression. The findings of this study offer a foundation for the advancement of garlic peel-based functional products and contribute to the identification of potential anti-cancer agents and therapeutic targets.

Matrix metalloproteinase 2-responsive dual-drug-loaded self-assembling peptides suppress tumor growth and enhance breast cancer therapy. (PubMed, Bioeng Transl Med)
This drug delivery system (DI/Pep1) can transport doxorubicin (DOX) and indomethacin (IND) simultaneously to target tumor cells for subsequent drug release while extending drug retention within tumor cells, which increases immunogenic cell death and facilitates the immunotherapeutic effect of CD4+ T cells. Ultimately, DI/Pep1 attenuated tumor-associated inflammation, enhanced the body's immune response, and inhibited breast cancer growth by combining the actions of DOX and IND. Our research offers an approach to hopefully enhance the effectiveness of cancer treatment.

Insight into the molecular mechanism of anti-breast cancer therapeutic potential of substituted salicylidene-based compounds using cell-based assays and molecular docking studies. (PubMed, Eur J Pharmacol)
Molecular docking studies revealed that selected protein targets strongly interact with bioactive compounds, and the estimated inhibition constants (Ki) of JAK2, STAT3, COX-2, HPV31 E6, EGFR1, TP53, and PARP1 were significantly decreased compared to acetylsalicylic acid. This could be a clear indication that these protein targets are implicated with antiproliferative efficacy, thereby warranting the potential of (1) and (7) to be used as anti-breast cancer drug candidates.

The Innate Immune System Surveillance Biomarker p87 in African Americans and Caucasians with Small High-Grade Dysplastic Adenoma [SHiGDA] and Right-Sided JAK3 Colon Mutations May Explain the Presence of Multiple Cancers Revealing an Important Minority of Patients with JAK3 Mutations and Colorectal Neoplasia. (PubMed, Gastrointest Disord (Basel))
Thus, this pilot study suggests that the reduction in p87 in the right colon is possibly correlated with JAK3 mutations. If confirmed, JAK3 mutations, known to be associated with immune aberrations, may provide a mechanistic explanation for the lack of a p87 (protein 87 kilodaltons) field in some patients with HGD polyps who might benefit from possible intervention such as more intensive screening. Limited microbiome studies were also performed on two patients with familial cancer syndromes and these compared favorably with controls available from the literature.

Inhibition of mitochondrial OMA1 ameliorates osteosarcoma tumorigenesis. (PubMed, Cell Death Dis)
Moreover, we found that ciclopirox (CPX), an antifungal drug, induces OMA1 self-cleavage and L-OMA1 degradation in cultured OS cells. CPX also reduces tumor development of control OS cells but not OMA1-deficient OS cells in mice. These findings strongly support the important role of OMA1 in OS tumorigenesis and suggest that OMA1 may be a valuable prognostic marker and a promising therapeutic target for OS.

Diospyros kaki fruit extract produces antiarthritic and antinociceptive effects in rats with complete Freund's adjuvant-induced arthritis. (PubMed, Food Sci Nutr)
Male Wistar rats were grouped as follows (eight rats in each): control, CFA, CFA + indomethacin (5 mg/kg), CFA + DFHE (50 mg/kg), and CFA + DFHE (100 mg/kg)...MDA and TNF-α levels were decreased while thiol levels and SOD and GPx activities were increased in DFHE-treated groups compared to the CFA group. These results suggest that D. kaki extract caused an improvement in clinical signs of rheumatoid arthritis symptoms possibly through suppression of oxidative stress and inflammation.
