006). THAP11 mRNA levels in atrial muscle specimens were positively associated with cTn-I levels at 24-h postoperatively (determination coefficient = 0.564; P less then 0.001). Sevoflurane treatment down-regulated THAP11 in H9C2 cell models, which promoted cell viability, inhibited cell apoptosis, and death in the OGD/R injury cell model. Up-regulation of THAP11 reduced the protective effect of sevoflurane treatment against OGD/R injury. Sevoflurane anesthesia down-regulates the expression of THAP11, which contributes to a cardio-protective effect. THAP11 down-regulation promotes cell viability, and inhibits cell apoptosis and death, thereby protecting again myocardial injury; it may therefore be a novel target for perioperative cardio-protection.Cancer cachexia (CC) is a syndrome associated with cancer, and the global burden is increasing rapidly. Alteration in carbohydrate, lipid and protein metabolism along with systemic inflammation are characteristics of CC. Until now the available treatment for CC is limited to controlling inflammation and nutrition. Anti-diabetics are widely used agents to treat diabetics, this agent's act by regulating the carbohydrate metabolism, also they are known to have beneficial effects in maintaining protein and lipid balance. Role of anti-diabetics in cancer is being evaluated continuously and biguanides, dipeptidyl peptidase 4 (DPP4) inhibitors and Sodium glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have proven anti-cancer potential. In this study, metastatic B16-F1 cell line induced cancer cachexia model used to evaluate potential of biguanides (metformin), DPP-4 inhibitors (teneligliptin and vildagliptin) and SGLT2 inhibitors (empagliflozin and dapagliflozin) in cancer cachexia. Our results suggest that anti-diabetic agents have potential to decrease rate of proliferation of tumor, restrict body mass markers, decrease inflammation, regulate carbohydrate mechanism and induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy. These findings may be helpful in management of cancer cachexia and increase the quality of life and survival chances of cancer cachexia patient.Excessive alcohol consumption leads to damage to the organs of the body. More importantly, the liver is majorly affected organ upon alcohol consumption for most of the people; it causes inflammation and affects various pathways involved in metabolism. If the person is with high response of inflammatory in conduct with alcohol leads to the liver damage, which involves the creating effects with major cycle leads to homeostasis. In this review, we summarize the molecular mechanisms of alcoholic liver disease, such as the important role of genes, risk factors, pathogenicity, and role of micro RNA, the role of inflammation in the liver, and alcoholic fibrosis in the liver. There is increased oxidative stress, change in the biochemical alterations, and reduction in the antioxidant enzymes. These changes in the mechanism lead to liver injury. Hepatocyte nuclear factor-4 is the major transcriptional factor for the regulation of some genes involved in the lipid metabolism and oxidation process; with the help of the agonist, we can attenuate the level of the gene in the site of hepatic tissues, which will prevent the homeostatic condition. This review shows a clear view of the various pathways involved in alcohol consumption, which helps in the prevention of ALD using an agonist.Hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury (HIRI) is an important cause of liver dysfunction after liver transplantation for the patients suffered from fatty liver, non-alcoholic cirrhosis, or liver cancer. It is closely related to liver cells apoptosis. Therefore, how to maintain the stable state of cell apoptosis is important to protect the liver from HIRI. Drug treatment basically applies some active substances directly or indirectly, reducing HIRI. But their toxic side effects limit the clinical applications. Differently, non-drug treatment means making use of other kinds of measures to reduce the damage, such as non-pharmaceutical preparations, surgical methods, inhalation or perfusion gas, and so on. Non-drug treatments have been shown to balance cell apoptosis and reduce liver damage during HIRI. This review summarized the progresses in the roles of non-drug treatments on liver cells apoptosis during HIRI in recent years, focusing on apoptosis inducing factors, its signal transduction pathway, and downstream molecules, etc., expecting to elucidate non-drug treatments of anti-HIRI more systematically.ATAD2 is a promising oncoprotein with tumor-promoting functions in many cancers. It is a valid cancer drug-target and a potential cancer-biomarker for multiple malignancies. As a cancer/testis antigen (CTA), ATAD2 could also be a probable candidate for immunotherapy. It is a unique CTA that belongs to both AAA+ ATPase and bromodomain family proteins. Since 2007, several research groups have been reported on the pleiotropic oncogenic functions of ATAD2 in diverse signaling pathways, including Rb/E2F-cMyc pathway, steroid hormone signaling pathway, p53 and p38-MAPK-mediated apoptotic pathway, AKT pathway, hedgehog signaling pathway, HIF1α signaling pathway, and Epithelial to Mesenchymal Transition (EMT) pathway in various cancers. In all these pathways, ATAD2 participates in chromatin dynamics, DNA replication, and gene transcription, demonstrating its role as an epigenetic reader and transcription factor or coactivator to promote tumorigenesis. However, despite the progress, an overall mechanism of ATAD2-mediated oncogenesis in diverse origin is elusive. In this review, we summarize the accumulated evidence to envision the overall ATAD2 signaling networks during carcinogenesis and highlight the area where missing links await further research. Besides, the structure-function aspect of ATAD2 is also discussed. Since the efforts have already been initiated to explore targeted drug molecules and RNA-based therapeutic alternatives against ATAD2, their potency and prospects have been elucidated. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/mk-0159.html Together, we believe this is a well-rounded review on ATAD2, facilitating a new drift in ATAD2 research, essential for its clinical implication as a biomarker and/or cancer drug-target.
