Article Abstract

Isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 and 2 (IDH1 and IDH2) are key metabolic enzymes that are mutated in a variety of cancers to confer a gain-of-function activity resulting in the accumulation of an oncometabolite, D-2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG). Accumulation of 2-HG can result in epigenetic dysregulation and a block in cellular differentiation, suggesting these mutations play a role in neoplasia. Based on its potential as a cancer target, a number of small molecule inhibitors have been developed to specifically inhibit mutant forms of IDH (mIDH1 and mIDH2). We present a comprehensive suite of in vitro preclinical drug development assays that can be used as a tool-box to identify lead compounds for mIDH drug discovery programs, as well as what we believe is the most comprehensive publically available dataset on the top mIDH inhibitors. This involved biochemical, cell-based, and tier-one ADME techniques.

This study evaluated the effects of dietary recovered frying soybean oil (RFSBO) and selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs) on growth performance, hepatic metabolism, intestinal morphology, and the expression of antioxidant, immune, and growth-related genes in juvenile Asian sea bass (Lates calcarifer, 41.5 ± 0.1 g) reared under high temperature (32-33 °C) and high salinity (38-40 ppt).

Tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) directly contribute to the dismal prognosis of glioblastoma by preventing anti-tumor immunity and promoting tumor invasion and angiogenesis. Inhibiting TAM infiltration is a potential therapeutic strategy in glioblastoma, with several chemokine antagonists in early clinical development. Hydrogen sulfide, a gasotransmitter that regulates microglial accumulation in a wide range of CNS diseases, may be a novel therapeutic target to prevent TAM recruitment in glioblastoma.

Background: The objective of this study is to investigate the predictive role of O6-methylguanine-DNA methyltransferase (MGMT) and isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) status on the efficacy of bevacizumab (BEV) in high-grade glioma (HGG), while excluding the interference of chemotherapy agents.

Methods: A retrospective, single-center analysis was conducted on 103 patients with HGG who received BEV treatment. The enrolled patients were grouped based on their different biomarker statuses.

Background: Nucleophosmin 1 (NPM1) mutations represent one of the most frequent genetic alterations in acute myeloid leukemia (AML). However, the prognostic significance of concurrent molecular abnormalities and clinical features in NPM1-mutated AML remains to be fully elucidated.

Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 73 adult AML patients with NPM1 mutations.

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), particularly in older adults aged 60 years and above, present significant therapeutic challenges due to poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Higher-risk MDS (HR-MDS), defined by the Revised International Prognostic Scoring System score of ⩾3.5, is characterized by increased myeloblasts, severe cytopenia, and a median survival of <2 years.
