Cell-free DNA (cfDNA) has emerged as a potential biomarker for assessing disease activity and prognosis in rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, the association between cfDNA levels established RA markers of inflammation severity remains unclear. The current study aimed to detect plasma patients with investigate their indicators (erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), C-reactive protein (CRP), score-28 (DAS28)), prognostic (rheumatoid factor (RF), anticitrullinated antibodies (ACPA)),...
Breast cancer is one of the leading causes death in women worldwide, highlighting crucial need for novel and effective treatments. In this study, we look at ability four natural compounds i.e. Berberine, Curcumin, Withaferin A, Ellagic Acid to target important breast biomarkers such as B-cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2), programmed death-ligand 1 (PDL-1), cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR). These indicators have roles tumor development, survival, immune...
