https://www.selleckchem.com/products/OSI-906.html Post-aortic left brachiocephalic vein (PALBV) is one of the rare congenital vessel abnormalities associated with congenital heart disease. As only a few reports of surgical treatment for thymic tumor in patients with PALBV are available, this study reports the case of a patient with PALBV who underwent surgical treatment for thymoma. In a 60-year old woman, a nodule in the anterior mediastinum was detected on chest computed tomography (CT) during examination for arrhythmia. Thymoma was suspected, and surgical resection was considered. PALBV was detected on a contrast CT scan before surgery. Video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery was used to perform thymectomy using the subxiphoid dual-port approach. This method provided an appropriate view of the operative field and made it easy to confirm the presence of PALBV and identify the thymic veins branching off from the internal thoracic vein.Legumain is a newly discovered lysosomal cysteine protease that can cleave asparagine bonds and plays crucial roles in regulating immunity and cancer metastasis. Legumain has been shown to be highly expressed in various solid tumors, within the tumor microenvironment and its levels are directly related to tumor metastasis and poor prognosis. Therefore, legumain presents as a potential cancer therapeutic drug target. In this study, we have identified esomeprazole and omeprazole as novel legumain small molecule inhibitors by screening an FDA approved-drug library. These compounds inhibited enzyme activity of both recombinant and endogenous legumain proteins with esomeprazole displaying the highest inhibitory effect. Further molecular docking analysis also indicated that esomeprazole, the S- form of omeprazole had the most stable binding to legumain protein compared to R-omeprazole. Transwell assay data showed that esomeprazole and omeprazole reduced MDA-MB-231 breast cancer cell invasion without effecting cell viability. Moreover, an in vi
