3D printed microfluidic devices for circulating tumor cells (CTCs) isolation
In this study, we report a novel 3D printed microfluidic device functionalized with anti-EpCAM (epithelial cell adhesion molecule) antibodies to isolate CTCs from human blood samples. A 3D printing technology was utilized with specially designed interior structures to fabricate a microfluidic device with high surface area and fluid flow manipulation, increasing the capture efficiency of tumor cells. These devices with the optimal flow rate (1 mL/h) and channel length (2 cm) were demonstrated to test...

Cost-Effectiveness of Treating Early to Moderate Stage Knee Osteoarthritis with Intra-articular Hyaluronic Acid Compared to Conservative Interventions
Abstract Introduction Evidence has demonstrated greater benefit of intra-articular hyaluronic acid (IA-HA) within earlier stages of knee osteoarthritis (OA) rather than waiting for patients to have progressed to later stages of disease progression. High molecular weight (HMW) HA has also been shown to be more effective than low molecular weight (LMW) HA products in mild to moderate knee OA, providing an important distinction to make within...

Design, synthesis, and anticancer evaluation of 1,2,4-oxadiazole functionalized quinoline derivatives
AbstractA library of 1,2,4-oxadiazole functionalized quinoline derivatives (13a –j) were synthesized and their structures were confirmed by1H NMR,13CNMR and Mass Spectral analysis. Further, these compounds were evaluated for their anticancer activity against four human cancer cell lines, namely MCF-7 (breast), A549 (lung), DU-145 (prostate) and MDA MB-231 (breast) using Etoposide as the positive control. Most of these derivatives exhibited more potent activity towards the four cancer cell lines compared...

Genes, Vol. 10, Pages 937: NF-YA Overexpression in Lung Cancer: LUSC
Authors: Bezzecchi Ronzio Dolfini Mantovani The CCAAT box is recognized by the trimeric transcription factor NF-Y, whose NF-YA subunit is present in two major splicing isoforms, NF-YAl (“long”) and NF-YAs (“short”). Little is known about the expression levels of NF-Y subunits in tumors, and nothing in lung cancer. By interrogating RNA-seq TCGA and GEO datasets, we found that, unlike NF-YB/NF-YC, NF-YAs is overexpressed in lung squamous cell carcinomas (LUSC). The ratio of the...

Abstract The majority of breast cancers are primarily hormone‐sensitive and could be managed by endocrine therapy, although therapy‐resistant or hormone‐refractory cancers need alternative treatments. Recently, increasing attention is being paid to RNA‐binding proteins (RBPs) in cancer pathophysiology. The precise role of RBPs in breast cancer, however, remains to be clarified. We here demonstrate that an RBP non‐POU domain containing octamer binding (NONO) plays a critical role in the pathophysiology...
