Gastric cancer (GC) is a malignant neoplasm originating from the epithelial cells of gastric mucosa. The pathogenesis GC intricately linked to tumor microenvironment within which reside. Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) primarily differentiate peripheral blood monocytes and can be broadly categorized into M1 M2 subtypes. M2-type TAMs have been shown promote growth, tissue remodeling, angiogenesis. Furthermore, they actively suppress acquired immunity, leading poorer prognosis reduced tolerance chemotherapy. Exosomes, contain myriad biologically active molecules including lipids, proteins, mRNA, noncoding RNAs, emerged as key mediators communication between TAMs. exchange these via exosomes markedly influence consequently impact progression. Recent studies elucidated correlation various clinicopathological parameters GC, such size, differentiation, infiltration depth, lymph node metastasis, TNM staging, highlighting pivotal role in development metastasis. In this review, we aim comprehensively examine bidirectional TAMs, implications alterations on immune escape, invasion, metastasis targeted therapeutic approaches for efficacy potential drug resistance strategies.

Abstract The unprecedented pandemic of COVID-19 swept millions lives in a short period, yet its menace continues among survivors the form post-COVID syndrome. An exponentially growing number suffer from cognitive impairment, with compelling evidence trajectory accelerated aging and neurodegeneration. novel enigmatic nature this yet-to-unfold pathology demands extensive research seeking answers for both molecular underpinnings potential therapeutic targets. Ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death, is strongly proposed underlying mechanism post-COVID-19 neurodegeneration discourse. incites neuroinflammation, iron dysregulation, reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, antioxidant system repression, renin-angiotensin (RAS) disruption, clock gene alteration. These events pave way ferroptosis, which shows signature COVID-19, premature aging, neurodegenerative disorders. In search treatment, melatonin shines as promising ferroptosis inhibitor repeatedly reported safety tolerability. According to various studies, has proven efficacy attenuating severity certain manifestations, validating reputation anti-viral compound. Melatonin well-documented anti-aging properties combating neurodegenerative-related pathologies. can block leading since it efficient anti-inflammatory, chelator, antioxidant, angiotensin II antagonist, regulator. Therefore, we propose culprit behind melatonin, well-fitting inhibitor, treatment.
