When Immunosuppression Fails: Cardiac Myxoma Mimicking Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Flare With a Diagnostic Delay. (PubMed, Cureus)
During this period, she received escalating immunosuppression with corticosteroids, mycophenolate, and cyclophosphamide...Immunosuppression was de-escalated to hydroxychloroquine alone with no recurrence at 14-month follow-up...Cardiac myxomas produce IL-6 in the majority of patients (frequency >75%), and systemic constitutional signs are observed in a substantial proportion, though not uniformly. This can produce IL-6-mediated inflammation indistinguishable from autoimmune flares.

Protective effects and metabolomics analysis of dihydromyricetin on cyclophosphamide-induced hepatotoxicity in mice. (PubMed, Pharm Sci Adv)
Further analysis revealed that DHM increased the activity of Na+-K+-ATPase in mice, which affected CTX-induced mitochondrial energy metabolism. To conclude, DHM protected against CTX-induced hepatotoxicity, possibly through reducing oxidative stress and regulating energy metabolism, providing a potential strategy for treatment and prevention.

Nanochelate-based BCc1 delivery and its impact on key regulatory pathways in BALB/c breast cancer: An analysis of Beclin-1, ATG-4B, ATG-7, and mTOR expression. (PubMed, Biochem Biophys Rep)
Cyclophosphamide and BCc1 nanomedicine exhibited distinct regulatory effects on autophagy-associated genes...The observed gene expression profile-characterized by mTOR suppression and Beclin-1 upregulation alongside reduced ATG-4B and ATG-7 expression-indicates a selective enhancement of autophagy initiation, coupled with alterations in autophagosome maturation. This nuanced modulation of autophagy may contribute to BCc1's anti-tumor activity and warrants further investigation into its stage-specific mechanistic effects in cancer therapy.

A Case of Suspected Contralateral Occult Breast Cancer Occurring a Decade Following Breast Cancer Surgery (PubMed, Gan To Kagaku Ryoho)
Postoperatively, the patient received TC(docetaxel+cyclophosphamide) chemotherapy, total breast irradiation, and tamoxifen for 10 years. Considering the different subtypes and absence of other lesions, the patient was considered to have latent breast cancer as a new lesion. Chemotherapy, including anti- HER2 therapy, radiotherapy, and endocrine therapy, was administered as adjuvant treatment.

A Case Study of Severe Myelosuppression Induced by Adjuvant Chemotherapy in a Breast Cancer Patient with Concurrent Immune Thrombocytopenia(ITP) (PubMed, Gan To Kagaku Ryoho)
Following completion of weekly paclitaxel(PTX), initiation of epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide(EC)resulted in a marked platelet decrease to 1.3×104/μL on day 7, necessitating repeated platelet transfusions. These findings suggest that in breast cancer patients with ITP, neoadjuvant chemotherapy may not be feasible, and primary surgical intervention should be considered. Furthermore, when administering EC, vigilant hematological monitoring is imperative.

Maternal exposure to cyclophosphamide during prepubertal life does not affect the cryosusceptibility of in vitro derived mouse embryos. (PubMed, Reprod Fertil)
The quality and health of these embryos, measured by their development and important growth markers, were also similar. These findings provide hopeful news for young girls who receive certain types of chemotherapy, who may still have the option to use IVF in the future without increased risk of embryo damage during freezing.

Indomethacin exerts both cyclooxygenase inhibition-dependent and independent mechanisms to enhance chemo-immunotherapy in mice. (PubMed, bioRxiv)
Here, we investigated the therapeutic potential of indomethacin (Indo), a prototypical NSAID, in combination with cyclophosphamide (CTX), a widely used chemotherapeutic agent with immunostimulatory properties. Importantly, Indo retained therapeutic benefit following CTX even in tumors incapable of producing PGE₂, demonstrating a critical contribution of COX-independent mechanisms, particularly inhibition of tumor-intrinsic oncogenic RAS signaling, to the enhanced efficacy of the CTX+Indo combination. Collectively, our results provide strong preclinical rationale for leveraging the COX/PGE 2 and RAS dual inhibitory capacities of NSAIDs to enhance the efficacy of chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
