Summary: This study aimed to investigate the association between the intake of yoghurt and other dairy foods and colorectal cancer risk in Iran. The results showed that yoghurt intake was not associated with colorectal cancer risk, but was inversely associated with proximal colon cancer risk. Cream intake was associated with colorectal cancer risk, while ice cream intake was associated with a lower risk of distal colon cancer. Other dairy products were not associated with colorectal cancer risk.

Summary: Breast cancer is a global public health problem and there is increasing interest in prevention strategies as its incidence rises. A healthy dietary pattern, such as the Mediterranean diet, with high levels of fiber, phytochemicals, antioxidants, and advantageous fatty acids, is considered a promising approach to reduce breast cancer risk. This review summarizes the important active compounds in preventing breast cancer, including polyunsaturated fatty acids, fiber, phytochemicals, and alcohol. While the exact mechanism is not well understood, the combination of these elements in a healthy diet plays a role in reducing breast cancer risk.

Summary: This study suggests that adherence to a plant-based paleolithic diet and paleolithic-like lifestyle may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer. These dietary and lifestyle approaches may work by reducing inflammation, oxidative stress, and insulin levels. The study also found a stronger inverse association between the lifestyle score and the risk of colorectal cancer.

Summary: Dexmedetomidine attenuates motor deficits and protects dopaminergic neurons in a dose-dependent manner in a PD mouse model. It acts on nigrostriatal circuit neurons, including activating dopaminergic neurons and reducing the excitabilities of striatal neurons via dopamine D2 receptors, improving motor dysfunction.

Summary: Research shows that sheep tail fat (STF), rich in the odd-chain saturated fatty acid (OCSFA) heptadecanoic acid (C17:0), has anti-non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) activity. STF inhibits NSCLC cell proliferation and migration by promoting reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation and subsequent cell death, and suppresses cell growth by downregulating the Akt/S6K signaling pathway. Animal studies demonstrate that STF reduces tumor growth and weight in nude mice with A549 xenografts. Therefore, dietary intake of C17:0-rich STF may be a potential adjuvant therapy for NSCLC.

Summary: An increasing number of studies have shown that alcohol vapor chambers are effective in modeling physical signs of alcohol use disorders. However, in China, there are few studies that have built and modified their own vapor chambers. In this study, researchers designed and established an alcohol vapor chamber system for small animals. They demonstrated how to control and monitor alcohol concentration in the system and tested the system by evaluating blood alcohol concentration and neuron injury in mice. The study also found that alcohol exposure-induced behaviors were associated with changes in NMDAR response.

Summary: This study aims to investigate the roles of transfer RNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in endometrial carcinoma (EC). The tsRNA profiles for EC from TCGA were analyzed and the functions and mechanisms of tsRNA were explored through in vitro experiments. The results identified 173 dysregulated tsRNAs. After validation in EC tissues and serumal exosome samples, a downregulated tsRNA, tRF-20-S998LO9D, was observed. Exosomal tRF-20-S998LO9D inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion, and promoted apoptosis of EC cells, and its knockdown further confirmed its effects. Further analysis showed that tRF-20-S998LO9D upregulated SESN2 in protein levels. In conclusion, tRF-20-S998LO9D inhibits EC cells by upregulating SESN2.

Summary: Exposure to chronic alcohol consumption impairs cognitive flexibility in individuals. This impairment is linked to altered activity of striatal cholinergic interneurons (CINs), which play a role in regulating glutamatergic transmission in medium spiny neurons (MSNs). Chronic alcohol drinking reduces thalamic excitation of CINs, compromising their ability to regulate glutamatergic transmission in MSNs, leading to impaired cognitive flexibility.
