Nigella sativa bioactives against Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer & Breast CancerYusuf Asad
This document summarizes a study on targeting the ERK and AKT pathways in non-small cell lung cancer and triple-negative breast cancer cells with bioactives from Nigella sativa. The study found that thymoquinone (TQ) and thymol (THY) from N. sativa exhibited cytotoxic effects on cancer cells in a dose-dependent manner. Combining THY and TQ showed greater inhibition of cell viability than either component alone. Treatment with the combination also significantly downregulated expression of the AKT and ERK genes involved in proliferation. The findings suggest TQ may improve the efficacy of THY as an adjuvant therapy for lung and breast cancers.

2. Somatostatin analogues are first-line treatment for symptomatic control in NETs but resistance can develop. Chemotherapy has limited efficacy except in high-grade tumors.
3. Emerging biomarkers and molecular targeted therapies such as inhibitors of angiogenesis are improving outcomes beyond traditional approaches.
Epigenetics and cell fate in JIA and pulmonary fibrosis by Jim HagoodSystemic JIA Foundation
This document discusses the potential role of epigenetic mechanisms in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) and juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA). It outlines how epigenetic changes like DNA methylation and histone modifications can alter gene expression and cell phenotypes, contributing to diseases like IPF that involve remodeling of lung tissue. Studies have found differential methylation and expression of genes in IPF lung tissue. Epigenetic therapies targeting mechanisms like DNA methylation and histone acetylation may one day help treat IPF and other diseases. The document also discusses how epigenetics may contribute to autoimmunity and JIA, noting differences in T cell methylation profiles between JIA patients and controls.
Sct promoter methylation is a highly discriminative biomarker for lungredpel dot com
This document summarizes research finding that methylation of the SCT (secretin) gene promoter is a highly discriminative biomarker for lung cancer and many other cancer types. The researchers analyzed DNA methylation data from 69 lung cancer cell lines and 257 normal lung tissue samples, finding the SCT promoter to be hypermethylated in the cancer cells. They validated this in 15 additional lung cancer cell lines and 3 normal cell lines using a quantitative methylation-specific PCR assay. Further analysis of data from The Cancer Genome Atlas showed the SCT promoter to be methylated at high levels in 15 major cancer types, but not in corresponding normal tissues or over 1000 non-cancer samples. This suggests SCT promoter methylation could be a

The expression of ITPK in normal colon and colorectal cancer cells - Papermaldjuan
This document summarizes research into the expression of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate kinase (ITPK) isoforms in normal colon cells and colorectal cancer cells. The researchers hypothesize that ITPK isoform C (ITPKC) is downregulated in colorectal carcinoma cells compared to normal colon cells. They extracted RNA from normal colon and colorectal cancer cell lines and found the RNA to be intact. Quantitative PCR will be used to analyze expression levels of the three ITPK isoforms in the cell lines. Western blot analysis validated antibodies for detecting ITPK isoforms A and B. Preliminary results showed ITPK isoform A expression varied across colorectal cancer
This document discusses lung cancer and the role of the protein WDR72. It describes the two main types of lung cancer as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for 80-85% of cases, and small cell lung cancer (SCLC), which spreads faster but responds better to chemotherapy. The objective is to investigate how WDR72 influences lung cancer cell stemness and provide new treatment strategies. Methods like luciferase assays, RT-qPCR, western blot, and apoptosis assays are used to quantify protein and gene expression levels. Knocking down WDR72 expression suppresses lung cancer growth and metastasis via the AKT/HIF-1α signaling pathway, suggesting WDR72 could be a new

Deadenylase Expression in Small Cell Lung Cancer Related To Clinical Characte...NainaAnon
This study examined the expression levels of deadenylases in small cell lung cancer (SCLC) clinical samples and their correlation to patient clinical characteristics and survival. Real-time PCR analysis found that the deadenylases PARN, CNOT6, CNOT7, and NOC were differentially expressed between malignant and normal lung tissue samples. Higher expression levels of PARN, CNOT6, and CNOT7 correlated with older patient age and decreased overall survival of 180 days or less. The results suggest these deadenylases may serve as prognostic biomarkers for SCLC patient outcomes.

This document summarizes a study of 15 cases of micropapillary lung adenocarcinoma (MPA). MPA is an aggressive form of lung cancer associated with poor prognosis. The study found that 73% of cases had mutations in either KRAS (33% of cases), EGFR (20% of cases), or BRAF (20% of cases). All of the patients were current or former smokers. MPA manifested predominantly as micropapillary growth (75-100% of tumor) and frequently showed secondary patterns such as lepidic or acinar growth. This genetic profile differs from typical lung adenocarcinomas and suggests smoking history may be more strongly associated with MPA
Telomeros, envejecimiento y prevencion Dr.A.Fernandez-Cruz - Barcelona - apr...Life Length
Telomeres, aging and prevention. Telomere length decreases with each cell division and can be used as a biomarker for biological aging. While telomerase helps maintain telomere length in embryonic development, it is normally silenced after birth. Cancer cells are able to reactivate telomerase to become immortal. Studies show that increased telomerase through genetic modifications in mice can increase healthspan and longevity while reducing aging effects and slightly increasing cancer risk. Precision medicine approaches using telomere length and other biomarkers may help predict disease risks and develop new prevention and treatment strategies.

This document discusses the role of the cell polarity regulator PARD3 in lung squamous cell carcinomas (LSCC). The key points are:
1. PARD3 was found to be somatically and biallelically inactivated through mutations, deletions, and promoter hypermethylation in 8% of examined LSCC tumors and cell lines. Most alterations resulted in truncated or non-functional PARD3 proteins.
2. Reconstitution of normal PAR3 activity in vivo reduced the invasive and metastatic properties of tumors, suggesting PARD3 acts as a tumor suppressor in LSCC.
3. PARD3 alterations prevented the formation of tight junctions between cells and the downstream signaling of STAT

5-hydroxytryptamine or 5-HT or Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that serves a range of roles in the human body. It is sometimes referred to as the happy chemical since it promotes overall well-being and happiness.
It is mostly found in the brain, intestines, and blood platelets.
5-HT is utilised to transport messages between nerve cells, is known to be involved in smooth muscle contraction, and adds to overall well-being and pleasure, among other benefits. 5-HT regulates the body's sleep-wake cycles and internal clock by acting as a precursor to melatonin.
It is hypothesised to regulate hunger, emotions, motor, cognitive, and autonomic processes.

Mercurius is named after the roman god mercurius, the god of trade and science. The planet mercurius is named after the same god. Mercurius is sometimes called hydrargyrum, means ‘watery silver’. Its shine and colour are very similar to silver, but mercury is a fluid at room temperatures. The name quick silver is a translation of hydrargyrum, where the word quick describes its tendency to scatter away in all directions.
The droplets have a tendency to conglomerate to one big mass, but on being shaken they fall apart into countless little droplets again. It is used to ignite explosives, like mercury fulminate, the explosive character is one of its general themes.

2. Why it happens?
Introduction
Annual incidence is greater than
1,600,000 cases.
More than 1,370,000 people die each
year from this disease
It is the most common malignant tumor in
men worldwide. In women, it ranks fourth
in incidence. Lung cancer is also the cancer
with the highest mortality rate regardless
of gender.
It occurs when abnormal cells grow
out of control in the lungs, forming
tumors. These tumors can interfere
with the normal functioning of the
lung and, in advanced stages, can
spread to other parts of the body
through the lymphatic system or
bloodstream, in a process known as
metastasis.
Cancer of lung
Epidemiology
Non-small cell lung cancer, most
common (about 85% of cases)
Small cell lung cancer: less common
(about 15% of cases), more dangerous
Types
Causes
Smoking (main risk factor), 90% of cases
are due to this
Exposure to wood smoke
Exposure to metals (nickel, arsenic,
radon and cadmium)
3. Micro Rna- 182/interleukin-8 regulatory axis in
osteolytic bone metastasis of lung cancer
Introduction
Micro Rna 182 (Mir 182) plays a crucial role in the osteoclastic regulation of lung cancer metastasis in NSCLC.
Mir 182 interferes with the IL8 regulation pathway, called the KLHL21:NF-kB, specifically
acting by inhibiting the production of an inhibitor of IL 8 synthesis, this leads to
an increase in the expression of IL8 and others pro factors tumors.
As a result, the phosphorylation of the STAT3 and NFATc1 pathway present in pre-osteoclastic cells is stimulated,
which in turn accelerates the cellular differentiation of osteoclasts in the bone marrow.

anticuerpo y su antígeno, este último
enlazado a una enzima, la cual mediante
algún producto detectable, como, por ejemplo,
el cambio de color, hará posible la medición
del antígeno en la muestra utilizando la
espectrofotometría. Se usó para determinar
niveles cuantitativos de diferentes proteinas
como IL-8, IL-1, IL-12, and CXCL3

Discussion
"Multiple studies have shown that IL-8 is also overexpressed
in a variety of cancer cell lines and functions as an autocrine
and/or paracrine growth factor to facilitate tumor growth,
invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis"
"MiR-182 is highly expressed in sensory tissues and organs,
and its function is involved in the inner ear and retina
development, as well as osteoclast and T cell differentiation"
"Also, both bone- metastatic myeloma and breast cancer cells
are able to stimulate the production of IL-6 by bone marrow
stromal cells, resulting in increased osteoclast differentiation
and bone destruction "

10. Thanks to molecular biology, in this articule has could shown several
advances for the cancer of lungs
Conclusion #1
By recognizing the mir 182/IL-8/STAT3 axis, effective treatments
can be proposed that interrupt certain segments of the
osteoclastogenic pathway
Conclusion #2
Identify cytokines/molecules that suggest a pulmonary metastatic
process to bone (IL-8, IL-1, IL-12, and CXCL3 P.e), resulting in a
more accurate and quick diagnosis
Conclusions
