Abstract Aiming at the scale adaptation of automatic driving target detection algorithms in low illumination environments and the shortcomings in target occlusion processing, this paper proposes a YOLO-LKSDS automatic driving detection model. Firstly, the Contrast-Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalisation (CLAHE) image enhancement algorithm is improved to increase the image contrast and enhance the detailed features of the target; then, on the basis of the YOLOv5 model, the Kmeans++ clustering algorithm is introduced to obtain a suitable anchor frame, and SPPELAN spatial pyramid pooling is improved to enhance the accuracy and robustness of the model for multi-scale target… More >

Abstract Centaurium erythraea Rafn (“Gosset El Haya”) has long been prized in North African folk medicine, yet Moroccan chemobiological data remain scarce. Ethanol extracts of northern Moroccan aerial parts were profiled by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and found rich in phenolics, dominated by 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (57.8%) and naringin (10.3%). The extract exhibited strong antioxidant power in the 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical-scavenging assay, with a half-maximal inhibitory concentration (IC₅₀) of ≈74 µg mL⁻¹, and a total antioxidant capacity (TAC) of ≈201 µg mL⁻¹ and selective antimicrobial activity, sharply inhibiting Aspergillus niger, Penicillium digitatum, and Rhodotorula glutinis while sparing Staphylococcus aureus. In-silico absorption, distribution, metabolism,… More >

Abstract Objectives: Cisplatin (CDDP) therapy for glioblastoma (GBM) is linked with several limitations, which include poor penetration of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), systemic toxicity, and the development of drug resistance mechanisms implicating oxidative stress dysregulation and compromised apoptotic pathways. This study evaluates C-Phycocyanin (C-PC) as a potential adjuvant to enhance CDDP efficacy by modulating redox balance and apoptosis. Methods: GBM cells (U87 and U87-EGFRvIII) were treated with CDDP, C-PC, or their combination. Cell viability was assessed by MTT assay; apoptosis was evaluated by DAPI staining and Western blot analysis of cleaved Caspase-3 and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex network composed of non-tumor cells, extracellular matrix, blood vessels, and various molecular signals that surround and profoundly influence tumor progression. As one of the key immune effector cells within the TME, mast cells (MCs) exhibit functional complexity, and their specific roles remain widely debated. Depending on the cancer type, spatial distribution, and interactions with other TME components, MCs can demonstrate dual regulatory capabilities—either promoting or inhibiting tumor growth. This characteristic has made them an important focus in current tumor immunology research. This review aims to systematically review the More >

Abstract Background: The most aggressive forms of breast cancer are characterized by independence from steroid hormones but a strong dependence on growth factors. In such cancer cells, oncogenic receptors, including human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2), are activated, and their targeted inhibition represents an attractive therapeutic strategy. The study aimed to develop small-molecule potential dual heat shock protein 90 (HSP90)-HER2 inhibitors and evaluate them as anticancer agents in HER2-positive cells. Methods: The research project involved obtaining a series of compounds with potential dual inhibitory activity against HSP90 and HER2 by targeted organic synthesis, which was… More > Graphic Abstract

Abstract Traditional cancer therapies have limitations like poor efficacy on advanced tumors, healthy tissue damage, side effects, and drug resistance, creating an urgent need for new strategies. Hydrogels have good biocompatibility and controlled release, while extracellular vesicles (EVs) enable targeting and bioactive transport. This review systematically summarizes hydrogels and EVs, focusing on the construction of hydrogel-EV delivery system, key influencing factors, drug delivery mechanisms, and tumor therapy apps, clarifying their synergies. The system overcomes single-carrier flaws, construction methods/key factors affect performance, preclinical studies have confirmed efficacy in multiple therapies, but large-scale production and in vivo stability challenges More >

Abstract Gastric cancer (GC) is a prevalent malignant tumor globally, with high incidence and mortality rates. Advances in understanding molecular mechanisms underlying GC have highlighted the role of microRNAs (miRNAs) in its initiation, progression, and treatment. The Let-7 family, an important class of miRNAs, is closely associated with the biological behaviors of GC. Aberrant expression of various Let-7 family members in GC patients contributes to disease progression, as they target multiple molecular pathways and participate in diverse regulatory mechanisms throughout GC pathogenesis. This article systematically summarizes the expression patterns of Let-7 family members in GC, explores More >

Abstract Background: Current chemotherapy treatments, including the TIP (Taxol, Ifosfamide, Cisplatin) regimen, have shown limited effects but strong side effects in advanced Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) patients. Trophoblast cell-surface antigen-2 (TROP-2) is a novel target for antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) drugs and has been proven to be effective in several human cancers. This study aimed to explore the biological function and potential of the ADC target in PSCC cells. Methods: A total of 196 PSCC tumor tissue specimens and clinicopathological data were collected. TROP-2 expression was detected by IHC, and the correlation between TROP-2 expression and… More > Graphic Abstract
