Rationale: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is an aggressive malignant solid tumor wherein CDK1/PDK1/β-Catenin activated, suggesting that inhibition of this pathway may have therapeutic potential. Methods: CDK1 overexpression and clinicopathological parameters were analyzed. HCC patient-derived xenograft (PDX) models treated with RO3306 (4 mg/kg) or sorafenib (30 mg/kg), alone in combination. The relevant signaling was measured by western blot. Silencing shRNA corresponding inhibitors...

Abstract T cells modified with anti‐ CD 19 chimeric antigen receptor ( CAR ) containing either 28 or 4‐1 BB (also termed TNFRSF 9, 137) costimulatory signalling have shown great potential in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukaemia ALL ). However, difference between and ‐T has not been well elucidated clinical trials. In this study, we treated 10 relapsed refractory patients second generation ‐T. The first 5 were 28‐ other All response‐evaluable. Three achieved complete remission 1...

The development of safe and effective vaccines to respond COVID-19 pandemic/endemic remains a priority. We developed novel subunit protein-peptide vaccine candidate (UB-612) composed of: (i) receptor binding domain SARS-CoV-2 spike protein fused modified single-chain human IgG1 Fc; (ii) five synthetic peptides incorporating conserved helper cytotoxic T lymphocyte (Th/CTL) epitopes derived from structural proteins (three S2 subunit, one membrane nucleocapsid), universal Th peptide; (iii)...

Understanding cancer stem cell (CSC) maintenance pathways is critical for the development of CSC-targeting therapy. Here, we investigated functional role cyclin D1-dependent activation Smad2/3 and Smad4 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) CSCs HCC primary tumors. Cyclin D1 sphere-derived xenograft tumor models were employed to evaluate therapeutic effects a Smad inhibitor combination with chemotherapy. overexpression confers stemness properties by enhancing single sphere formation, CD90+...

Echinacoside (ECH) is a phenylethanoid glycoside extracted from Chinese herbal medicine, Cistanches salsa . ECH possesses many biological properties, including anti‐inflammation, neural protection, liver and antitumor. In the current study, we aimed to explore effects of on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) underlying mechanisms. The results showed that could attenuate diethylnitrosamine (DEN)‐induced HCC in mice, exerted antiproliferative proapoptotic functions HepG2 cell line. exposure cells...

The present study aimed to determine the effects and mechanism of ChaC glutathione specific γ‑glutamylcyclotransferase 1 (CHAC1) on cell viability sensitivity prostate cancer cells docetaxel. Compared with non‑tumor human epithelial RWPE‑1 cells, mRNA protein levels CHAC1 significantly decreased in two lines, DU145 22RV1, as measured by quantitative polymerase chain reaction western blot analysis (P<0.05). (GSH) were inhibited following overexpression (P<0.01), while they increased...

Abstract Activated macrophages are commonly involved in the pathogenesis of inflammatory and autoimmune diseases have been frequently reported to overexpress FR-β. Although FR-targeted therapies aimed at eliminating activated shown promise for treating diseases, little work has performed evaluate whether other hematopoietic cells might also express Analysis peripheral blood with a mAb human FR-β reveals that only monocytes Molecular characterization these circulating further demonstrates...

Activated macrophages overexpress a receptor for the vitamin folic acid termed folate β (FR-β). Because conjugation of to low molecular weight drugs, genes, liposomes, nanoparticles, and imaging agents has minor effects on FR binding, can be exploited target both therapeutic activated without promoting their uptake by other healthy cells. In this paper, we characterize internalization, recycling kinetics FR-β in inflamed tissues rats with adjuvant-induced arthritis. Our results demonstrate...

EC20, a folate-targeted 99mTc based radioimaging agent with high folate receptor (FR) binding affinity, has been used for both the diagnosis and staging of FR positive malignancies (currently in phase III trials) also localization inflamed lesions characterized by accumulation FR+ macrophages. Because recent evidence suggested that macrophages might accumulate at sites infectious disease, this study evaluated whether EC20 prove similarly useful imaging bacterial infection foci.

Murine RAW 264.7 cells were exposed to spheroidal core–shell Fe3O4@Au nanoparticles (SCS-NPs, ca. 34 nm) or nanostars (NSTs, 100 in the presence of bovine serum albumin, with variable effects observed after macrophagocytosis. Uptake SCS-NPs caused macrophages adopt a rounded, amoeboid form, accompanied by an increase surface detachment. In contrast, uptake multibranched NSTs did not induce gross changes macrophage shape adhesion, but correlated instead cell enlargement and signatures...

Abstract Background Apelin is a peptide ligand of the G‐protein‐coupled receptor APJ and exhibits anti‐diabetes anti‐heart failure activities. However, short serum half‐life apelin limits its potential clinical applications. This study aimed to develop long‐acting analog. Methods To extend apelin's in vivo half‐life, we made recombinant protein by fusing IgG Fc fragment apelin‐13 (Fc‐apelin‐13), conducted pharmacokinetics studies mice, determined vitro biological activities suppressing...
