A Rare Instance of Concordant Charcot-Marie-Tooth Disease and Familial Partial Lipodystrophy Type 2. (PubMed, Cureus)
Management included custom orthopedic footwear with supramalleolar orthotic (SMO) inserts, endurance-focused physical therapy, gabapentin for neuropathic pain, metformin for dysglycemia, atorvastatin for lipid and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) risk reduction, antihypertensive therapy for blood-pressure control, and longitudinal cardiac surveillance with electrocardiogram (ECG), echocardiography, and ambulatory rhythm monitoring. This case highlights the multisystem nature of LMNA-related disease and the importance of recognizing overlapping adipose, neurologic, metabolic, and cardiac manifestations as part of a unified disease process requiring coordinated neuromuscular, endocrine, and cardiology follow-up.

Promoted Efficacy for Breast Cancer Cell Line Killing via the Combination of Metformin and GM-CSF-Expressing Oncolytic Virus. (PubMed, Indian J Microbiol)
Breast cancer cells (i.e., MCF7 and MDA-MB231) infected with a combination of recombinant HSV-1 viruses that express granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and metformin exhibit a synergistic effect in promoting the expression of interferon-ϒ (IFN-ϒ) found within peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and exerting apoptotic and cytotoxic effects in the mentioned malignant cells. The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s12088-025-01523-7.

Investigation of metformin analogues in targeting signaling molecules of head and neck cancer pathways by computational approaches. (PubMed, Sci Rep)
Further evidence from hydrogen bond analysis revealed that the ligand contributed to complex stability by maintaining sporadic yet regular polar interactions throughout the trajectory. These findings suggest that CID 222300 is a promising lead compound capable of interacting with the mTOR target in a stable and targeted manner, indicating its potential as a novel therapeutic agent against HNC.

Metformin dual-targets metabolism and survival pathways in BPDCN. (PubMed, iScience)
In vivo, metformin reduces tumor cell infiltration in the spleen and modulates NF-κB and STAT5 signaling, although its effect on overall disease progression is limited. These results identify metformin as a multifaceted agent targeting both metabolic and survival pathways in BPDCN, supporting its potential as a therapeutic strategy in this rare malignancy.
