Design, Synthesis, and Bioactivity Assessment of Modified Vemurafenib Analog.

Cell type: T cell | Technique: Fluorescence imaging | Disease/area: Melanoma

Background: Metastatic melanoma is a highly aggressive malignancy with poor prognoses and frequent resistance to conventional chemotherapy. Approximately 40% of melanoma cases carry the BRAFV600E mutation, for which vemurafenib, a selective BRAFV600E inhibitor, is approved. Despite initial clinical benefits, vemurafenib often leads to drug resistance and relapse, highlighting t

Regulation of Ferroptosis in Human Macrophage by Nitric Oxide Donors.

Cell type: Macrophage | Technique: Fluorescence imaging | Disease/area: Leukemia

Ferroptosis is a programmed form of cell death in which iron-dependent lipid peroxidation is the main feature. Macrophages are the major cells of the immune system, they function in a pro-oxidative environment, so the study of their susceptibility to ferroptosis and the search for approaches to its regulation are important. The aim of the study was to investigate ferroptosis in

The MALAT1-EZH2 axis regulates PRC2 activity and promotes the mesenchymal phenotype in pediatric atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors.

Cell type: T cell | Technique: Fluorescence imaging | Disease/area: Cancer

BACKGROUND: Atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (AT/RT) are aggressive pediatric CNS malignancies characterized by SMARCB1 loss, which leads to the dysregulated expression of Enhancer of Zeste Homolog 2 (EZH2), a key catalytic component of the Polycomb Repressive Complex 2 (PRC2). This dysregulation results in aberrant trimethylation of histone H3 at lysine 27 (H3K27me3), driving
