Prognostic evaluation of glycogen synthase kinase 3A (GSK3A) mRNA expression in colon cancer patients

Introduction: GSK3, a multifunctional serine/threonine kinase regulates cell-cycle progression, differentiation and apoptosis and its inhibition can have a tumor suppressor/promoter effect, depending on the cell type. There are conflicting reports of GSK3 in cell growth, but most studies have focused on GSK3β and very few on GSK3α in cancer. GSK3α regulates proliferation o...

A potential role of nanophytocompounds in diabetic foot ulcers

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is characterized by hyperglycemia, which is a common endocrine disease. DM and its complications may lead to diabetic foot ulcers (DFU). DFU is associated with reduced wound healing because of altered cellular and cytokine responses, inadequate vascularization, infection, and neuropathy. One novel and promising approach to treating diabetic wound healing is the administra...

CAR T-cells therapy as a ray of hope for cancer treatment

New hope for patients with specific blood malignancies has arisen with the emergence of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T-cell therapy as a revolutionary approach to cancer immunotherapy. This groundbreaking therapy modifies a patient’s immune system such that their own T cells can identify and destroy cancer-specific antigens by expressing CARs. Multiple myeloma, lymphomas, and leukemias are a...

A case of delayed initial response to combination ipilimumab and nivolumab in malignant pleural mesothelioma

Malignant pleural mesothelioma has a poor prognosis with limited therapeutic options Although numerous trials have shown that combination immunotherapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab is one of the first line treatments for patients with unresectable MPM, there is limited data on delayed responses over a long follow up period. We report a case of a delayed response 7 months after the cessation of...

Cancer new treatment series: Comparison immune changes of HCC by scRNA-Seq following HELC treatment one case study

Immunotherapy has emerged as a novel treatment strategy for many types of cancers, among them, liver cancer. The major advances and achievements in recent years is the use of programmed death-1 (PD-1) blockers for cancer treatment. Since patients’ immune systems are already weak following concurrent surgery plus chemo or radiotherapy, it is necessary to restore and awake their immune cells to m...
