Comparison of postprocessing metrics in multimetabolic APT-weighted CEST and 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST-MRI for differentiating breast cancer subtypes in a murine model. (PubMed, Eur Radiol Exp)
Advanced multimetabolic APTw-CEST and 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST postprocessing metrics allowed adequate preclinical murine BC subtyping. AREX showed potential for 2-deoxy-D-glucose-CEST in tumor characterization; however, APTw-CEST remains superior. MTRasym failed to distinguish between tumor subtypes in CEST-MRI.

Twelve mutations, three trials, and five different labels: PARP inhibitors regulatory inconsistencies in prostate cancers. (PubMed, EClinicalMedicine)
Of all trials, only MAGNITUDE, evaluating niraparib and abiraterone, led to aligned conclusions from both the EMA and FDA, as its design effectively identified the subgroup most likely to benefit. Currently, there is a need for harmonisation in biomarker-driven trial designs and the definition of homologous recombination repair deficiency (HRD). Access to biomarker and clinical data from all PARP-inhibitor trials would allow researchers to clarify the impact of different HRR mutations on outcomes.

PARP Inhibitor Olaparib and Its Combination Therapy in Metastatic Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer: A Systematic Review and Network Meta-analysis. (PubMed, Eur Urol Open Sci)
However, for BRCA-mutated mCRPC, olaparib combined with abiraterone improved PFS (HR = 0.61, 95% CrI = 0.41-0.91) and OS (HR = 0.41, 95% CrI = 0.21-0.80) significantly. For patients with changes in other related DNA repair genes (but not BRCA), olaparib alone was an effective treatment. This information may assist doctors and patients in choosing the most suitable treatment based on the cancer's genetic characteristics.

A brain-driven neural circuit contributes to tissue regeneration in joint cartilage. (PubMed, Ann Rheum Dis)
Our findings unveil a brain-cartilage circuit that regulates cartilage regeneration, providing valuable insights into the inherent limitations of tissue regeneration and suggesting a promising treatment strategy for enhancing cartilage regeneration.

Characteristics of auditory event-related potential and prediction of IDH1 mutation in patients with insular glioma. (PubMed, Quant Imaging Med Surg)
The IDH1-wt group showed higher amplitude of MMN evoked by novel stimulus at Fz and Cz and longer latency of the P300 component evoked by a deviant stimulus at Fz. The combination of AERP parameters yielded a more effective means to predict IDH1 mutation status in patients with insular glioma, which may provide guidance for the surgical intervention of this disease.

A Single-Center, Retrospective, Real-World, Observational Clinical Study to Evaluate the Safety and Efficacy of Abiraterone (Abiratred) in Patients with Metastatic Prostate Cancer. (PubMed, South Asian J Cancer)
Adverse events were observed in 5 (14.3%) patients, but there were no deaths related to abiraterone. This real-world study provides evidence that generic abiraterone (Abiratred) is both well-tolerated and effective for patients with advanced or metastatic prostate cancer, making it a promising option in real-world clinical settings.

Qiling decoction enhances the anti-tumor activity of abiraterone acetate by up-regulating miR-143 expression in abiraterone acetate-resistant prostate cancer cells. (PubMed, Front Med (Lausanne))
These findings demonstrate that miR-143 downregulation contributes to abiraterone acetate resistance in prostate cancer by activating the JNK/p-Bcl2-Beclin1 signaling axis and promoting autophagy. Restoration of miR-143 expression through QLD treatment enhances abiraterone acetate sensitivity, suggesting a potential therapeutic strategy for overcoming drug resistance in CRPC.
