Journal ArticleDOI

Inflammation-related pyroptosis, a novel programmed cell death pathway, and its crosstalk with immune therapy in cancer treatment.

TL;DR: In this paper, the role of pyroptosis in cancer progression and the modulation of immunity is discussed, and the potential small molecules and nanomaterials that target pyroptic cell death mechanisms and their therapeutic effects on cancer are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) in Survival, Dormancy, Immunosuppression, Metastasis, and Treatments of Cancer Cells

TL;DR: Regulating UPR through different molecular mechanisms may provide promising anticancer treatment options by suppressing cancer proliferation and progression and regulating dormancy and immunosuppression.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of Necroptosis in ROS-Mediated Cancer Therapies and Its Promising Applications.

TL;DR: This review concludes that several small molecules used in experiments and clinical practice eliminate cancer cells via the modulation of ROS and necroptosis, a caspase-independent form of cell death with features between apoptosis and necrosis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide vs bevacizumab for treatment of macular oedema secondary to branch retinal vein occlusion.

TL;DR: These short-term results indicate that intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide or bevacizumab can both improve visual acuity and decrease macular oedema temporarily in eyes with BRVO.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intravitreal triamcinolone acetonide vs bevacizumab for treatment of macular oedema due to central retinal vein occlusion

TL;DR: Intravitreal injection of triamcinolone acetonide or bevacizumab can both lead to a significant improvement in visual acuity and a resolution of macular oedema in patients with CRVO, however, the significant effect was not permanent.
