- Hodgkin Lymphoma (HL) is a heterogeneous malignant disorder in the human body's lymphatic system with distinct clinical and molecular features. The objective of this research was to assess the hematological and molecular status of HL patients in Palestine and explore potential prognostic indicators and potential targets requiring further evaluation. Certain hematological factors, i.e., anemia, increased levels of lactate dehydrogenase, and inflammatory markers, are included in the International Prognostic Score (IPS) for HL. This study highlights the clinical value of accessible hematological biomarkers in resource-limited healthcare settings. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 557 HL lymph node biopsies (2017-2023) from Palestinian Health Information Center (PHIC) database and hospital medical records. Hematological parameters (hemoglobin, MCV) and biochemical markers (ESR, LDH) were analyzed. Claudin-6 (CLDN6) mRNA expression was quantified in lymph node tissues from HL patients (n = 25) and healthy donors (n = 25) via qRT-PCR, while protein levels were assessed by Western blot. Serum GATA-4 concentrations were measured by ELISA. Nodular Sclerosis was the most common form, which predominantly occurred in young patients with a relatively equal sex distribution. The highest frequency was found in Hebron. Hemoglobin levels differed between subtypes, with the lymphocyte-depleted subtype showing the lowest mean hemoglobin values; the Lymphocyte-Depleted (LD) subtype exhibited the lowest hemoglobin and MCV (74.77 fL), indicating microcytic anemia. ESR was elevated across subtypes, with the highest levels observed in the NOS (63.5 mm/h), reflecting aggressive disease. Male mortality was highest in Mixed Cellularity (87.5%) and NS (75%), while LD and Lymphocyte-Predominant subtypes showed no male deaths. Molecularly, CLDN6 mRNA and GATA-4 levels were significantly elevated in HL tissues (P < 0.001), though Claudin-6 protein expression remained unchanged, suggesting post-transcriptional regulation. This study represents the first combined hematological and molecular characterization of Hodgkin lymphoma in Palestine and provides preliminary evidence for CLDN6-GATA4 regulatory involvement in HL pathogenesis. The hematological changes in Palestinian HL patients are unique. The roles of CLDN6 and GATA-4 as potential markers remain preliminary and require further validation in the context of Hodgkin lymphoma. - Source: PubMed

Asees MohammadAmer JohnnyRezeq AyoubSalhab AhmadAbdalhaq Toleen - Autophagy is a double-edged sword for maintaining neural system homeostasis during the development of cerebral ischemia. However, the potential molecular mechanisms behind this remain unclear. Changes in miR-429 and its target GATA4, along with autophagy mediators and apoptosis in ischemic stroke, were examined in this research. Additionally, the study investigated these factors in combination with chlorogenic acid (CGA). Male Wistar rats were separated into three categories. (n=8): sham, IR (ischemia-reperfusion, Induction of transient cerebral ischemia via occlusion and reperfusion of the common carotid artery.) and IR+CGA (30 mg/kg, ip; administered intraperitoneally, 10 minutes before the onset of ischemia and 10 minutes prior to reperfusion). Levels of miR-429, GATA4, c-Caspase-3 / p-Caspase-3 ratio, LC3-I, LC3-II, Beclin1 and p62 were assessed using Real- time PCR and Western blot assays. At the end of the experiment, increased miR-429 gene expression (P<0.05) and c-Caspase-3/p-Caspase-3 ratio (P<0.01), along with decreased GATA4 protein expression (P<0.001), were observed in IR group. In addition, the brains of CCAO rats displayed significantly increased autophagy activation, as evidenced by an increased LC3-II/I ratio and Beclin1 protein expression, and decreased p62 expression after 24 h of reperfusion (P<0.001). Immunohistochemistry studies has alsorevealed that the ratio of overall LC3 immunoreactivity in the cortex tissue of male rats was significantly increased by cerebral IR (P<0.001). Treatment with CGA significantly attenuated autophagic activity and apoptosis, reversing the aforementioned molecule levels. Taken together, these results suggested that ischemic insult can increase autophagic activities and apoptosis, possibly through miR‑429 and GATA4 alterations in the brain cortex following cerebral IR insult, which can be alleviated by CGA as a potential therapy for individuals affected by ischemia. - Source: PubMed

Rahil SalimiAlireza ShirpoorRoya Naderi - Cardiac ischemia induces substantial metabolomic reprogramming, which dysregulates cardiomyocytes (CMs) and non-myocyte stromal cell populations. The stromal cells derived from epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) and ventricle are critical for extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, paracrine signaling, and myocardial homeostasis. However, the metabolomic content and responses of EAT-derived stromal cells (EATDS) and ventricular stromal cells (VSCs) remain unknown. - Source: PubMed

- Postpartum depression (PPD) is a common and serious mental disorder after childbirth, imposing a heavy burden on mothers, infants, and families. Abnormalities in the tryptophan-kynurenine (TRP-KYN) metabolic pathway are considered to be involved in its pathogenesis, but the role of quinolinic acid phosphoribosyltransferase (QPRT), a key downstream enzyme in this pathway, remains unclear. This study aims to explore the association between PPD in women undergoing cesarean section and gene polymorphisms, as well as other risk factors for PPD. - Source: PubMed
