Local and regional food systems should grow as consumers demand produce from their communities and establish stronger relationships with their local farmers and ranchers. Producers, community members, consumers, educators and many others should involve in developing functioning local food systems.
This review discusses the impact of bioengineering on cancer immunotherapy, focusing on overcoming current limitations like systemic toxicity and cost through innovative solutions like biomaterials for targeted delivery. It emphasizes the potential of bioengineering in enhancing immunotherapy efficacy and safety, suggesting a promising future for cancer treatment through advanced technological interventions.
How do recent advances in genomic screening and computer-assisted techniques contribute to developing new targeted therapies for acute myeloid leukemia (AML)?
This review highlights that major chronic diseases, including cancer, are often induced by factors such as infections, obesity, and diet through chronic inflammation. It emphasizes the potential of dietary agents, particularly spices, in suppressing inflammatory pathways, thereby playing a crucial role in preventing and treating cancer and other chronic diseases, as evidenced by lower cancer incidence in countries with high spice consumption.
Seems interesting! The main finding of this review is that nutrition and diet, including specific dietary patterns like the Mediterranean and ketogenic diets, as well as supplements like omega-3 and polyphenols, can potentially enhance the immune response against cancer and may improve the effectiveness of anticancer immunotherapy.
Great article, Regulated cell death (RCD) varies in its molecular mechanisms and immunogenicity, with apoptosis typically being immunologically silent and necroptosis involving specific kinase activations; however, the immunogenicity of RCD cannot be solely determined by its molecular pathways. Future research in cancer immuno(therapy) should focus on identifying novel inducers of immunogenic cell death (ICD), developing strategies to enhance the immunogenicity of non-immunogenic RCD variants, and combining ICD inducers with immunotherapy for improved cancer treatment.
This research explores the complex relationship between tumor hypoxia and the effectiveness of immunotherapy in solid tumors, emphasizing the need for further studies to understand how hypoxia influences immune exclusion and to develop more effective combinational treatment strategies.
This review details the unique observation and analysis of the evolution, variant emergence, replication shifts, and immune evasion of SARS-CoV-2, significantly impacting its spread and the clinical outcomes of COVID-19.
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are tiny, naturally occurring particles released by cells that play a crucial role in cell-to-cell communication. In the context of regenerative medicine, EVs are gaining attention due to their potential to promote tissue repair and regeneration.
This program aims to enhance the U.S. scientific research workforce's capability in using and developing advanced cyberinfrastructure (CI) to foster significant advancements in science and engineering (S&E), focusing on both educational integration and broader CI adoption across diverse S&E disciplines and institutions. It emphasizes training, curriculum development, and the inclusion of underrepresented groups to prepare the workforce for transformative, CI-enabled S&E research.
Extranodal marginal zone lymphomas of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) type represent ∼7% of all non-Hodgkin's lymphomas in the western world and can arise at any extranodal site. At least one-third of them present as a primary gastric lymphoma, which in approximately two-thirds of cases is associated with a chronic Helicobacter pylori infection.
This paper provides an updated summary of the French Intergroup guidelines for managing gastrointestinal lymphomas, involving experts from various medical fields. It emphasizes that treatment strategies vary based on the histological subtype and location of the lymphoma, with special attention to gastric MALT lymphomas commonly associated with Helicobacter pylori-induced gastritis.
The study describes the synthesis of a novel nanofiber material for cyanide ion removal, achieved by embedding a synthesized iron carboxylate ligand into polyvinylbenzylchloride. This material demonstrated high efficiency in removing cyanide from water, suggesting its potential for industrial applications in decyanidation.
