To reduce the risk of CVDs, dietary interventions are a potential approach. This review explores the potential of mycoprotein, a fungal-derived protein, as a dietary approach for maintaining cardiovascular health. A comprehensive literature search was conducted using various databases (Web of Science, Medline, Scopus, Google Scholar, EBSCO, PubMed) and government websites (WHO, CDC) to identify relevant studies. Mycoprotein provides essential amino acids with high bioavailability (0.996) while containing minimal saturated fat (1.5 grams) and high fiber (6 grams). Clinical studies have shown that mycoprotein consumption reduces cholesterol, improves lipid profiles, and potentially lowers blood pressure, possibly due to its impact on gut microbiota (GM) and short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) production. The intestinal fermentation of mycoprotein fiber increases the abundance of beneficial gut bacteria, binds to Gprotein coupled receptors like GPR41 and 43 to promote vasodilation, inhibits the angiotensinconverting enzyme, and reduces hepatic cholesterol production. Chitin and beta-glucan, the primary fiber of mycoprotein, exhibit anti-inflammatory properties that may contribute to overall cardiovascular health. The study concludes that mycoprotein is a sustainable and nutritious alternative, and its consumption promotes cardiovascular health and reduces CVD risks.</p>","PeriodicalId":10881,"journal":{"name":"Current pharmaceutical biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144076591","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sometimes, these infections become tough to treat because the Candida fungus resists antifungal drugs. This resistance depends on both the specific type of Candida and how it interacts with the human body. For instance, Candida can change its genetic makeup or produce proteins that pump out the drugs, making them less effective. Additionally, Candida can form a protective layer called a biofilm, which shields it from the drugs. Candida can cause a variety of diseases, and vaginal candidiasis is among the most troublesome. Nearly every woman experiences this infection at least once in her lifetime. Higher rates of treatment failures and recurrent infections result from the developing issue of antifungal resistance, underscoring the need for a more thorough understanding of resistance mechanisms. Changes in hormonal levels and immune responses can significantly influence the effectiveness of antifungal treatments. Hormonal fluctuations can alter vaginal pH and immune functions, which in turn affects Candida colonization and persistence. Moreover, an imbalance in the vaginal microbiome can lead to an overgrowth of Candida and lead to the drug resistance candidiasis. This review delves into the molecular pathways that contribute to the resistance of vaginal candidiasis to antifungal treatments, focusing on both acquired and intrinsic resistance mechanisms. Acquired resistance develops due to genetic alterations following antifungal exposure, including mutations in genes encoding drug targets, overexpression of efflux pumps, and increased biofilm formation. In contrast, intrinsic resistance refers to the innate traits of the Candida species that inherently reduce the efficacy of antifungal agents. These characteristics include changes in membrane sterols, genetic mutations in target enzymes, and the presence of efflux pumps that remove antifungal medications. Understanding these complex mechanisms can inform future therapeutic strategies and improve clinical outcomes.</p>","PeriodicalId":10881,"journal":{"name":"Current pharmaceutical biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-05-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143984308","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To understand the biological mechanisms driving BC and uncover potential therapeutic strategies, we performed a comprehensive Mendelian randomization (MR) analysis. The objective of this study is to investigate the causal relationships between immune cell phenotypes and BC risk, with a focus on identifying intermediary metabolites involved in these processes.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Methods: &lt;/strong&gt;We conducted MR analysis using genome-wide association study (GWAS) data from publicly available databases, focusing on 731 immune cell traits (n = 3757), 1400 plasma metabolites (n = 8299), and breast cancer (n case = 6188, n control = 182,678). We used a two-step MR approach to examine the potential intermediary role of plasma metabolites in the immune cell-BC relationship. The research employs the inverse variance weighting (IVW) method as its primary approach. To assess potential sources of bias, such as horizontal pleiotropy and heterogeneity, we employed the MR Egger intercept test and the Cochran's Q test, respectively. These rigorous analytical approaches ensured the robustness of our findings. Furthermore, Bayesian colocalization was employed to enhance the accuracy of causal inference and reduce false positives.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Results: &lt;/strong&gt;The IVW method of reverse MR analysis revealed a causal relationship between 20 immune cell traits and BC. Notably, our analysis identified three plasma metabolites as potential mediators in the causal link between immune cells and BC. In particular, vanillic acid glycine partially mediated the relationship between CD28+ CD45RA- CD8dim %CD8dim cells and BC. This suggests that vanillic acid glycine may act as a molecular link, modulating immune cell functions that contribute to BC. Additionally, the pyruvate to N-acetylneuraminate ratio exhibited negative mediation effects involving IgD- CD38dim AC, HLA DR on DC, CD8dim NKT %T cells, and CCR2 on monocytes. The negative mediation implies that this metabolite might inhibit certain immune cell behaviors that would otherwise promote cancer progression. Furthermore, cysteinylglycine disulfide partially mediated the relationship between CD8 on TD CD8br cells and BC, suggesting its involvement in the modulation of CD8 +T cell responses in BC. Key immune cell phenotypes, such as CCR2 on monocytes (odds ratio, ORIVW = 0.969; 95% CI: 0.943-0.996; p = 0.027), IgD- CD38dim AC cells (ORIVW = 1.100; 95% CI: 1.023-1.183; p = 0.009), were highlighted for their significant roles in BC progression.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Conclusion: &lt;/strong&gt;This study shows that vanillic acid glycine levels, the pyruvate to N-acetylneuraminate ratio, and cysteinylglycine disulfide levels can act as mediators in reducing breast cancer risk.

The prognostic status of metastatic and recurrent OS has remained stagnant over the past decades despite the availability of an extensive range of chemotherapy drugs in the clinic. To increase the overall survival and quality of life of patients with osteosarcoma, new therapeutic approaches must be developed immediately. In recent years, sirtuins (SIRT1-7) have garnered a lot of attention as researchers investigate the mechanisms underlying OS development and look for efficient treatment approaches. The nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+)-dependent histone deacetylases (HDACs) that make up the sirtuin family are engaged in several biologically controlled processes, including proliferation, invasion, metastasis, apoptosis, autophagy, and chemotherapy resistance. Despite their significance in cancer having been avidly studied for decades, their specific functions and mechanisms of action are not yet clear due to limited reports. This review will summarize the current research status and look forward to the directions and prospects of its application in osteosarcoma research, aiming to open up new avenues for the treatment and study of osteosarcoma.</p>","PeriodicalId":10881,"journal":{"name":"Current pharmaceutical biotechnology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143955370","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
