Osteosarcoma (OS) as an invasive and lethal malignancy showing a low 5-year survival rate requires novel therapeutic targets their suppressors to improve prevention treatment strategies. Our research served clarify the potential of ginger extract its underlying antineoplastic mechanisms in OS. In vitro studies were used detect anti-proliferation ability towards OS cells. Patient-derived xenograft (PDX) was performed confirm whether suppressed tumor growth. Cancer Heat Shock Protein (HSP) database utilized identify target extract, which subsequently validated through computational docking model screening method, molecular dynamics simulations pull-down assay. Analysis Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) revealed c-MET expression among samples well mechanism. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining corroborated level tissues relative controls. Functional involving knockdown cell lines produced elucidate functional role cellular processes. demonstrated that administration impeded progress while inducing apoptosis inhibiting migration. Moreover, vivo tests unveiled prominently inhibited patient-derived development. HSP analysis recognized screening, combined with immunohistochemistry overexpression contrast Next, our study confirmed significant suppression anchorage-independent growth, concomitantly after knockdown, underscoring prospect for target. Collectively, findings show is prospective Ginger natural inhibitor, exhibits potent effects by suppressing growth both vivo, highlighting new agent this aggressive malignancy.

Polyphenols (PPs) are recognized as bioactive compounds and antimicrobial agents, playing a critical role in enhancing food safety, preservation, extending shelf life. The effectiveness of PPs has different molecular biological reasons, predominantly linked to their hydroxyl groups electron delocalization, which interact with microbial cell membranes, proteins, organelles. These interactions may reduce the efficiency metabolic pathways, cause destructive damage membrane, or they harm proteins nucleic acids foodborne bacteria. Moreover, exhibit distinctive ability form complexes metal ions, further amplifying activity. This narrative review explores complex multifaceted between pathogens, underlying correlation chemical structures mechanisms action. Such insights shed light on potential innovative natural preservatives within systems, presenting an eco-friendly sustainable alternative synthetic additives.

Flavonoids represent a class of natural plant secondary metabolites with multiple activities including antioxidant, antitumor, anti-inflammatory, and antimicrobial properties. However, due to their structural characteristics, they often exhibit low bioavailability in vivo. In this review, we focus on the vivo study flavonoids, particularly effects gut microbiome common modifications such as methylation, acetylation, dehydroxylation, etc. These aim change characteristics original substances enhance absorption bioavailability. order improve discuss two feasible methods, namely dosage form modification chemical modification, hope that these approaches will offer new insights into application flavonoids for human health. article, also introduce types, sources, efficacy flavonoids. conclusion, is comprehensive review how

Proteolysis targeting chimeras (PROTACs) are bifunctional molecules that induce selective protein degradation by linking an E3 ubiquitin ligase enzyme to a target protein. This approach allows scope for "undruggable" proteins, and several PROTACs have reached the stage of clinical candidates. However, roles cellular transmembrane transporters in PROTAC uptake efflux remain underexplored. Here, we utilized transporter-focused genetic screens identify ATP-binding cassette transporter ABCC1/MRP1 as key resistance factor. Unlike previously identified inducible exporter ABCB1/MDR1, ABCC1 is highly expressed among cancers various origins constitutively restricts bioavailability. Moreover, genome-wide screen, candidates involved processes such ubiquitination, mTOR signaling, apoptosis factors resistance. In summary, our findings reveal crucial active pump limiting efficacy cancer cells, offering insights overcoming drug

Abstract Gliomas are the most common primary tumors of central nervous system, with glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) having highest incidence, and their therapeutic efficacy depends primarily on extent surgical resection postoperative chemotherapy. The role intracranial blood–brain barrier occurrence drug‐resistant gene O6‐methylguanine‐DNA methyltransferase have greatly limited chemotherapeutic agents in patients GBM made it difficult to achieve expected clinical response. In recent years, rapid development nanotechnology has brought new hope for treatment tumors. Nanoparticles (NPs) shown great potential tumor therapy due unique properties such as light, heat, electromagnetic effects, passive targeting. Furthermore, NPs can effectively load drugs, significantly reduce side effects improve efficacy, showing chemotherapy glioma. this article, we reviewed mechanisms glioma drug resistance, physicochemical NPs, advances resistance.

Multi-drug resistance (MDR) in advanced breast cancer (ABC) is triggered by the high expression of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), which reduces intracellular concentration anti-tumor drugs, turn preventing oxidative stress damage to cytoplasmic and mitochondrial membranes. It therefore clinical relevance develop P-gp-specific targeted nanocarriers for treatment drug resistant ABC. Herein, a carrier targeting CD44 mitochondria was synthesised delivery encequidar (ER, P-gp inhibitor) paclitaxel (PTX). HT@ER/PTX nanoparticles (ER:PTX molar ratio 1:1) had excellent inhibition ability induce apoptosis MCF-7/PTX cells vitro. Furthermore, showed more efficacy than PTX (Taxol®) xenograft mouse model cells; tumor inhibitory rates Taxol® were 72.64% ± 4.41% 32.36% 4.09%, respectively. The survival tumor-bearing mice administered prolonged compared that treated with Taxol®. In addition, not only inhibited P-gp-mediated removal toxic lipid peroxidation byproducts resulting from drugs but also upregulated dynamics-related protein, fostering damage, induced activation Caspase-3 pathway. Our findings indicate co-delivery inhibitors could be practical approach treating multi-drug
