Siponimod (BAF312) prevents synaptic neurodegeneration in experimental multiple sclerosis.

TL;DR: Results show that siponimod has neuroprotective effects in the CNS of EAE mice, which are likely independent of its peripheral immune effect, suggesting that this drug could be effective in limiting neurodegenerative pathological processes in MS.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altered intestinal permeability in patients with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis: A pilot study

TL;DR: The relatively high proportion of IP changes in RR-MS patients seems to confirmed the work hypothesis and warrants more work to confirm the result on a larger sample, and to understand the implications for related immunological disturbances and intestinal microbiota alterations.
Journal ArticleDOI

BRCA1, PARP1 and γH2AX in acute myeloid leukemia: Role as biomarkers of response to the PARP inhibitor olaparib.

TL;DR: Clinically achievable concentrations of olaparib were able to induce cell death in the majority of primary AML case samples and tested cell lines and phosphorylation of the histone H2AFX (γH2AX) was associated with drug sensitivity.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-dose ascorbate and arsenic trioxide selectively kill acute myeloid leukemia and acute promyelocytic leukemia blasts in vitro.

TL;DR: The findings encourage the design of pilot studies to explore the potential clinical benefit of ASC alone or in combination with ATO in advanced AML and APL and the mechanism of cell killing appeared to be related to increased oxidative stress and overproduction of ROS in a non-quantitative fashion.
