This document discusses inflammation and its link to cancer development and progression. It describes how inflammation can be either tumor-intrinsic, driven by the tumor itself, or tumor-extrinsic, arising from external factors like infection or environmental irritants. Chronic inflammation promotes carcinogenesis by increasing mutations, supporting angiogenesis and tumor growth. The tumor microenvironment contains many inflammatory cells like macrophages, neutrophils, and different T cell subsets that can either enhance or suppress antitumor immunity through their secreted cytokines and effects. Understanding the roles of these inflammatory cells is important for cancer immunotherapy.
This document reviews emerging biomarkers and technologies for personalized cancer immunotherapy. It discusses how our understanding of the immune system's role in cancer has evolved over the last century. Checkpoint blockade therapies have shown success in treating some cancers, but biomarkers are still needed to identify which patients will benefit and experience fewer side effects. The document explores biomarkers for CTLA-4 blockade and the PD-1/PD-L1 axis. It also discusses novel technologies that could help discover new biomarkers and advance precision medicine in cancer immunotherapy.
This document summarizes several key molecular targets in cancer therapy and discusses how traditional Ayurvedic medicine may provide leads in developing treatments by modulating these targets. It describes major targets like the NF-κB, AP-1, and JAK-STAT pathways that are involved in processes like inflammation, proliferation, apoptosis, and drug resistance. The document then discusses how phytochemicals from plants used in Ayurveda have been shown to suppress many of these same targets and molecular pathways. It suggests Ayurvedic medicine could provide insights on new therapeutic agents if rediscovered in light of modern knowledge of cancer biology.
This chapter discusses molecular epidemiology and evolutionary genetics of infectious diseases. It argues that molecular epidemiology should incorporate concepts from population genetics and evolutionary biology. Characterizing pathogens should evaluate how genetic diversity impacts medical properties. Emerging technologies like massive sequencing, post-genomic studies, and bioinformatics are transforming this field. The chapter examines definitions of molecular epidemiology and how new technologies like PCR have revolutionized pathogen identification but have limitations. It also discusses how molecular epidemiology has helped clinical practice in some routine ways but is primarily a research tool rather than part of daily medical practice.
Gene expression analysis of a Helicobacter pyloriinfected and high-salt diet-...Enrique Moreno Gonzalez
Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection and excessive salt intake are known as important risk factors for stomach cancer in humans. However, interactions of these two factors with gene expression profiles during gastric carcinogenesis remain unclear. In the present study, we investigated the global gene expression associated with stomach carcinogenesis and prognosis of human gastric cancer using a mouse model.

This study investigated the molecular basis of sporadic and familial multiple meningiomas in 7 unrelated patients without clinical evidence of neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2). Mutational analysis of the NF2 and DAL-1 genes was performed on tumor and blood samples. Truncating NF2 mutations were found in 3 tumors but not blood, and 2 tumors showed loss of the NF2 locus. In contrast, 5 non-truncating changes were found in DAL-1 in both tumor and blood samples, with no loss of the DAL-1 locus. The findings provide evidence that the molecular basis of sporadic and familial multiple meningiomas differs, with NF2 inactivation involved in sporadic
This study analyzed 264 gastric cancers for mutations in exons 9 and 20 of the PIK3CA gene. PIK3CA mutations were found in 42 cases (16%), all heterozygous missense mutations. The most common mutation was H1047R in exon 20 (62% of mutations) and the second most common was Q546K in exon 9 (9.5% of mutations). A meta-analysis of 27 publications found that the ratio of exon 20 to exon 9 mutations varied by cancer type, being highest in gastric cancer. The exon mutation selectivity is a signature of the cancer type.

Ultrasound Technology as a Novel Treatment Strategy in Pancreatic Cancer_Crim...CrimsonpublishersCancer
Adenocarcinoma of the pancreas (PDAC) accounts for 2.4% of all cancers diagnosed and is the fourth leading cause of cancer death, with almost equal rates of incidence and mortality [1]. By 2030, pancreatic cancer is projected to be the second leading cause of cancer-related death [2], surpassing breast, prostate and colorectal cancer. The overall survival at 5 years of around 7.2% as the majority of patients present with advanced disease at diagnosis. Patients with localized disease are treated with surgery, with or without neoadjuvant chemotherapy/ radiotherapy, followed by adjuvant chemotherapy. The majority (around 80%) of patients are treated only with chemotherapy as they have an advanced disease. Patients are treated in the first line with gemcitabine-abraxane or Folfirinox and with Naliri plus 5FU in the second line. There have been few clinical advances in PDAC treatment over the last 20 years and chemotherapy is the only treatment option available for the majority of patients. These tumours are also resistant to many targeted therapies such as anti-EGFR therapy like cetuximab [3] due to the presence of a KRAS mutation in the majority of primary tumors. Personalized medicine strategies have not yet been established in pancreatic cancer as in other more common tumour types. Thus, novel anti-tumour strategies are an important clinical need in order to improve survival rates.

Storyboard on Acne-Innovative Learning-M. pharm. (2nd sem.) CosmeticsMuskanShingari
Acne is a common skin condition that occurs when hair follicles become clogged with oil and dead skin cells. It typically manifests as pimples, blackheads, or whiteheads, often on the face, chest, shoulders, or back. Acne can range from mild to severe and may cause emotional distress and scarring in some cases.
**Causes:**
1. **Excess Oil Production:** Hormonal changes during adolescence or certain times in adulthood can increase sebum (oil) production, leading to clogged pores.
2. **Clogged Pores:** When dead skin cells and oil block hair follicles, bacteria (usually Propionibacterium acnes) can thrive, causing inflammation and acne lesions.
3. **Hormonal Factors:** Fluctuations in hormone levels, such as during puberty, menstrual cycles, pregnancy, or certain medical conditions, can contribute to acne.
4. **Genetics:** A family history of acne can increase the likelihood of developing the condition.
**Types of Acne:**
- **Whiteheads:** Closed plugged pores.
- **Blackheads:** Open plugged pores with a dark surface.
- **Papules:** Small red, tender bumps.
- **Pustules:** Pimples with pus at their tips.
- **Nodules:** Large, solid, painful lumps beneath the surface.
- **Cysts:** Painful, pus-filled lumps beneath the surface that can cause scarring.
**Treatment:**
Treatment depends on the severity and type of acne but may include:
- **Topical Treatments:** Such as benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, or retinoids to reduce bacteria and unclog pores.
- **Oral Medications:** Antibiotics or oral contraceptives for hormonal acne.
- **Procedures:** Such as chemical peels, extraction of comedones, or light therapy for more severe cases.
**Prevention and Management:**
- **Cleanse:** Regularly wash skin with a gentle cleanser.
- **Moisturize:** Use non-comedogenic moisturizers to keep skin hydrated without clogging pores.
- **Avoid Irritants:** Such as harsh cosmetics or excessive scrubbing.
- **Sun Protection:** Use sunscreen to prevent exacerbation of acne scars and inflammation.
Acne treatment can take time, and consistency in skincare routines and treatments is crucial. Consulting a dermatologist can help tailor a treatment plan that suits individual needs and reduces the risk of scarring or long-term skin damage.
Storyboard on Skin- Innovative Learning (M-pharm) 2nd sem. (Cosmetics)MuskanShingari
Skin is the largest organ of the human body, serving crucial functions that include protection, sensation, regulation, and synthesis. Structurally, it consists of three main layers: the epidermis, dermis, and hypodermis (subcutaneous layer).
1. **Epidermis**: The outermost layer primarily composed of epithelial cells called keratinocytes. It provides a protective barrier against environmental factors, pathogens, and UV radiation.
2. **Dermis**: Located beneath the epidermis, the dermis contains connective tissue, blood vessels, hair follicles, and sweat glands. It plays a vital role in supporting and nourishing the epidermis, regulating body temperature, and housing sensory receptors for touch, pressure, temperature, and pain.
3. **Hypodermis**: Also known as the subcutaneous layer, it consists of fat and connective tissue that anchors the skin to underlying structures like muscles and bones. It provides insulation, cushioning, and energy storage.
Skin performs essential functions such as regulating body temperature through sweat production and blood flow control, synthesizing vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, and serving as a sensory interface with the external environment.
Maintaining skin health is crucial for overall well-being, involving proper hygiene, hydration, protection from sun exposure, and avoiding harmful substances. Skin conditions and diseases range from minor irritations to chronic disorders, emphasizing the importance of regular care and medical attention when needed.

The biomechanics of running involves the study of the mechanical principles underlying running movements. It includes the analysis of the running gait cycle, which consists of the stance phase (foot contact to push-off) and the swing phase (foot lift-off to next contact). Key aspects include kinematics (joint angles and movements, stride length and frequency) and kinetics (forces involved in running, including ground reaction and muscle forces). Understanding these factors helps in improving running performance, optimizing technique, and preventing injuries.

Scientific Summary
CD95 (also known as Fas) is considered as a death receptor and it belongs to the TNF (tumor necrosis factor)
receptor family. Its ligand, CD95L is a transmembrane cytokine (m-CD95L), which can be cleaved by
metalloproteases and released in the bloodstream as a soluble fragment (s-CD95L). While m-CD95L is found
at the surface of immune cells where it orchestrates the elimination of transformed/infected cells and the
immune contraction, s-CD95L behaves as a proto-oncogene enhancing the risk of metastatic occurrence in
breast cancers. Our main goals are i) to decipher how CD95 switches from implementing cell death to non-
apoptotic signaling pathways, ii) to identify the cells whose function is deregulated by the naturally processed
ligand in breast cancers and iii) to develop original therapeutics that selectively inhibit the CD95-mediated
non-apoptotic and pro-inflammatory signaling pathway.

Title: Development of drugs selectively inhibiting the non-apoptotic CD95 / Fas signaling pathway in
systemic lupus erythematosus and triple negative breast cancer.
My PhD was conducted under the supervision of Pr. Jean-Luc Taupin in Bordeaux (France), where I studied
the role of CD95/CD95L pair in immune homeostasis. CD95, also known as Fas is a death receptor that belongs
to the Tumor Necrosis family (TNF) receptor family. In the presence of its ligand designated CD95L or FasL,
CD95 implements an apoptotic signalling pathway contributing to the immune surveillance and immune
tolerance 1-4
. Then, I joined Pr. Marcus Peter’s laboratory at University of Chicago (2002-2005, Chicago, USA)
where we established that the stimulation of CD95 in cancer cells resistant to the CD95-mediated apoptotic
signalling pathway, promoted carcinogenesis through the induction of non-apoptotic signals 5-7
. In 2005, I have
been hired as an Assistant professor by INSERM (“chargé de recherche” Inserm from 2005 to 2012, France).
INSERM is a National health research institute operating under the French Ministries of Health and Research.
In Bordeaux, I created my research group and established that anti-tumour agents induced rapid redistribution
of CD95 into lipid rafts to facilitate the implementation of the apoptotic signalling pathway and the elimination
of malignant cells 8,9
.
In 2010, I moved to University of Rennes (Rennes, France) and as a “director of research” Inserm (Full
Professor) joined the Comprehensive Cancer Center Eugène Marquis in Rennes (France) to create an INSERM
Unit working on death receptors, inflammation and tumor adaptation. CD95L belongs to the TNF superfamily
and this transmembrane cytokine can be shed by metalloproteases to release in bloodstream a soluble ligand
(s-CD95L). Our work highlighted that s-CD95L i) is increased in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and
triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients and ii) participates in the severity of these pathologies by
promoting the Th17 trafficking in the inflamed organs 10,11
or the metastatic dissemination of TNBC cells,
respectively 12
. In addition, my Team demonstrated that in the presence of s-CD95L, CD95 elicits the formation
of a molecular complex that we termed MISC, for Motility-Inducing Signalling Complex, thereby inducing a
non-orthodox c-yes/Orai1/Ca2+
/PI3K signalling pathway 10,12,13
. Currently, my group including surgeons,
clinicians, biologists, chemists and scientists is interested to understand how the “apoptotic receptor” CD95
participates in the aggravation of the clinical outcomes in chronic inflammatory disorders 10,11,13
and breast
cancers 12,14
. In collaboration with chemists and modelers, we recently synthesized original peptidomimetics
selectively inhibiting the CD95-mediated pro-inflammatory response without affecting its apoptotic signal,
which is instrumental in controlling the immune response 15
. In parallel, I founded a company called APOFAS-
Biotech (2017), which aims at accompanying the original CD95 inhibitors whose therapeutic activity has been
validated in different lupus-prone animal models to clinical trials.
My main goals are now i) to decipher how as a unique receptor, CD95 can induce a such broad-spectrum
of signalling pathways and ii) to evaluate the therapeutic activity of our CD95-targeting inhibitors in
lupus and TNBC mouse models.
