Quantification of the growth suppression of HER2+ breast cancer colonies under the effect of trastuzumab and PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor. by Padmanabhan, Regina

“…Precisely, several questions regarding the right combination of drugs, drug modality, and effective dose recommendations pertaining to the use of ICB-based therapy for HER2+ patients remain unanswered. In this study, we use a mathematical modeling-based approach to quantify the growth inhibition of HER2+ breast cancer (BC) cell colonies (ZR75) when treated with anti-HER2; trastuzumab (TZ) and anti-PD-1/PD-L1 (BMS-202) agents. …”

Omega-3 fatty acid-rich fish oil supplementation prevents rosiglitazone-induced osteopenia in aging mice by Cugno, Chiara

“…Rosiglitazone is an effective insulin-sensitizer, however, associated with bone loss mainly due to increased bone resorption, and bone marrow adiposity, and decreased bone formation. We investigated the effect of the co-administration of fish oil (FO) rich in omega-3 fatty acids (FAs) on rosiglitazone (RSG)-induced bone loss in aging C57BL/6 mice and the mechanisms underlying potential preventive effect. …”

Late-diagnosed complete intravaginal testicular torsion with preserved blood flow and viable testis in an adolescent by Zvizdic, Zlatan

“…In intermittent TT, the degree of spermatic cord twist is ≥ 360°, but spontaneous resolution occurs after a short time. In the mentioned forms of TT, color Doppler ultrasonography (CDS) shows a subtle decreased blood flow or flow that appears symmetrical with the contralateral testis.1 In contrast, complete TT results in testicular ischemia due to compromised blood flow to the affected testis. …”
