The main findings of this study are that body fat mass remains stable and similar across all age groups, including in the senior squad.Antithrombin, the main physiological inhibitor of the coagulation cascade, exerts anti-tumor effects on glioblastoma multiforme cells. Antithrombin has different conformations native, heparin-activated, prelatent, latent, and cleaved. The prelatent form has an intermediate affinity between latent and native antithrombin, although it is the most antiangiogenic form. Herein, we investigate the effect of this conformation on the tumorigenic processes of glioblastoma multiforme cells. Antithrombin forms were purified by chromatography. Chromogenic/fluorogenic assays were carried out to evaluate enteropeptidase and hepsin inhibition, two serine proteases involved in these processes. Wound healing, Matrigel invasion and BrdU incorporation assays were performed to study migration, invasion and proliferation. E-cadherin, Vimentin, VEGFA, pAKT, STAT3, pSTAT3, and pERK1/2 expression was assessed by Western blot and/or qRT-PCR. Prelatent antithrombin inhibited both enteropeptidase and hepsin, although it was less efficient than the native conformation. Exposure to prelatent antithrombin significantly reduced migration and invasion but not proliferation of U-87 MG, being the conformation most efficient on migration. Prelatent antithrombin down-regulated VEGFA, pSTAT3, and pERK1/2 expression in U-87 MG cells. Our work elucidates that prelatent antithrombin has surprisingly versatile anti-tumor properties in U-87 MG glioblastoma multiforme cells. This associates with resistance pathway activation, the decreased expression of tumorigenic proteins, and increased angiogenesis, postulating the existence of a new, formerly unknown receptor with potential therapeutic implications.The development of Alzheimer's disease (AD) is influenced by several events, among which the dysregulation of cholesterol metabolism in the brain plays a major role. Maintenance of brain cholesterol homeostasis is essential for neuronal functioning and brain development. https://www.selleckchem.com/products/apr-246-prima-1met.html To maintain the steady-state level, excess brain cholesterol is converted into the more hydrophilic metabolite 24-S-hydroxycholesterol (24-OHC), also called cerebrosterol, by the neuron-specific enzyme CYP46A1. A growing bulk of evidence suggests that cholesterol oxidation products, named oxysterols, are the link connecting altered cholesterol metabolism to AD. It has been shown that the levels of some oxysterols, including 27-hydroxycholesterol, 7β-hydroxycholesterol and 7-ketocholesterol, significantly increase in AD brains contributing to disease progression. In contrast, 24-OHC levels decrease, likely due to neuronal loss. Among the different brain oxysterols, 24-OHC is certainly the one whose role is most controversial. It is the dominant oxysterol in the brain and evidence shows that it represents a signaling molecule of great importance for brain function. However, numerous studies highlighted the potential role of 24-OHC in favoring AD development, since it promotes neuroinflammation, amyloid β (Aβ) peptide production, oxidative stress and cell death. In parallel, 24-OHC has been shown to exert several beneficial effects against AD progression, such as preventing tau hyperphosphorylation and Aβ production. In this review we focus on the current knowledge of the controversial role of 24-OHC in AD pathogenesis, reporting a detailed overview of the findings about its levels in different AD biological samples and its noxious or neuroprotective effects in the brain. Given the relevant role of 24-OHC in AD pathophysiology, its targeting could be useful for disease prevention or slowing down its progression.The use of carbon dots (CDs) with dual emission based on ratiometric fluorescence has been attracting attention in recent times for more accurate ion detection since they help avoid interference from background noise, probe concentration, and complexity. Herein, novel dual-emission nitrogen-doped CDs (NCDs) were prepared by a simple method for Cu2+ and ClO- detection. The NCDs showed excellent anti-interference ability and selectivity for different emissions. In addition, a good linear relationship was observed between the fluorescence intensity (FI) of the NCD solutions in different emissions with Cu2+ (0-90 μM) and ClO- (0-75 μM). The limits of both Cu2+ detection and ClO- were very low, at 17.7 and 11.6 nM, respectively. The NCDs developed herein also showed a good recovery rate in water for Cu2+ and ClO- detection. Hence, they are expected to have a more extensive application prospect in real samples.Over 50% of human papilloma positive head-and-neck cancer (HNCHPV+) patients harbor genomic-alterations in PIK3CA, leading to hyperactivation of the phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. Nevertheless, despite PI3K pathway activation in HNCHPV+ tumors, the anti-tumor activities of PI3K pathway inhibitors are moderate, mostly due to the emergence of resistance. Thus, for potent and long-term tumor management, drugs blocking resistance mechanisms should be combined with PI3K inhibitors. Here, we delineate the molecular mechanisms of the acquisition of resistance to two isoform-selective inhibitors of PI3K (isiPI3K), alpelisib (BYL719) and taselisib (GDC0032), in HNCHPV+ cell lines. By comparing the transcriptional landscape of isiPI3K-sensitive tumor cells with that of their corresponding isiPI3K-acquired-resistant tumor cells, we found upregulation of insulin growth factor 2 (IGF2) in the resistant cells. Mechanistically, we show that upon isiPI3K treatment, isiPI3K-sensitive tumor cells upregulate the expression of IGF2 to induce cell proliferation via the activation of the IGF1 receptor (IGF1R). Stimulating tumor cells with recombinant IGF2 limited isiPI3K efficacy and released treated cells from S phase arrest. Knocking-down IGF2 with siRNA, or blocking IGF1R with AEW541, resulted in superior anti-tumor activity of isiPI3K in vitro and ex vivo. In vivo, the combination of isiPI3K and IGF1R inhibitor induced stable disease in mice bearing either tumors generated by the HNCHPV+ UM-SCC47 cell line or HPV+ patient-derived xenografts. These findings indicate that IGF2 and the IGF2/IGF1R pathway may constitute new targets for combination therapies to enhance the efficacy of PI3K inhibitors for the treatment of HNCHPV+.
