Article Abstract

Drug resistance in tumors constitutes a significant obstacle to tumor therapy. Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) presents a major challenge due to its deep anatomical location, limited space, and complex structure. These factors complicate surgical procedures and hinder the effectiveness of chemoradiotherapy, leading to poor prognosis and reduced quality of life. However, there is hope in the form of circular RNAs (circRNAs), non-coding RNA molecules with a closed-loop structure that exhibits superior stability and resistance to degradation compared to linear RNAs. Recent advances in high-throughput sequencing and bioinformatics technology revealed that circRNAs participate in tumor proliferation, invasion, migration, and drug resistance. This review aims to summarize current research progress on the involvement of circRNAs in drug resistance of HNSCC and provide valuable insights for the prevention and mitigation of drug resistance in HNSCC.

Importance: Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug, with 10% to 30% of regular users developing cannabis use disorder (CUD), a condition linked to altered hippocampal integrity. Evidence suggests high-intensity interval training (HIIT) enhances hippocampal structure and function, with this form of physical exercise potentially mitigating CUD-related cognitive and mental health impairments.

Objective: To determine the impact of a 12-week HIIT intervention on hippocampal integrity (ie, structure, connectivity, biochemistry) compared with 12 weeks of strength and resistance (SR) training in CUD.

The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the continuously evolving SARS-CoV-2 virus, has presented persistent global health challenges. As novel variants emerge, many with enhanced transmissibility and immune evasion capabilities, concerns have intensified regarding the efficacy of existing vaccines and therapeutics. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the current landscape of COVID-19 vaccination, including the development and performance of monovalent and bivalent boosters, and examines their effectiveness against newly emerging variants of interest (VOIs) and variants under monitoring (VUMs), such as JN.
