Fibrosarcoma represents a significant challenge in oncology, characterized by high invasiveness and a poor prognosis. Gelatinases, particularly matrix metalloproteinases MMP-2 and MMP-9, play a pivotal role in the degradation of the extracellular matrix, facilitating tumor invasion and metastasis. Inhibiting these enzymes has emerged as a promising therapeutic strategy. This review evaluates the progress in the…

Resveratrol, a naturally occurring polyphenol found in grapes, berries, and peanuts, has garnered significant attention for its potential anti-cancer properties. This review provides a comprehensive analysis of its role in cancer therapy, both as a standalone treatment and in combination with other therapeutic approaches. This review explores the molecular mechanisms underlying resveratrol’s anti-cancer effects, including…
Phycobiliproteins (PBPs) are accessory light-harvesting pigment complexes found in cyanobacteria, red algae, and certain types of cryptophytes. The unique spectral features (strong absorbance and fluorescence), proteinaceous nature, and some imperative properties such as the anti-oxidative, hepato-protective, anti-inflammatory, and anti-aging activity of PBPs allow their use in biomedical industries. However, basic research and technological innovations are…
Extracellular Vesicle-associated microRNAs (EV-miRNAs) are emerging as pivotal regulators of corneal health and disease, holding exceptional promise for transforming both diagnostics and therapeutics. These vesicles carry distinct miRNA signatures in biofluids such as tears, offering a powerful, non-invasive approach for early detection, risk stratification, and dynamic monitoring of corneal disorders. In addition, EV-miRNAs act as…
Proteases play a pivotal role in cancer progression, facilitating processes such as extracellular matrix degradation, angiogenesis, and metastasis. Consequently, protease inhibitors have emerged as promising therapeutic agents in oncology. This review provides a comprehensive overview of the mechanisms by which protease inhibitors modulate cancer biology, categorizing inhibitors by their target protease classes, including matrix metalloproteinases,…
