HPV16 is the predominant cancer-causing strain that is responsible for over 50% of all cervical cancers. In this study, we aim to investigate the therapeutic effect of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) knockdown on HPV16
cervical cancer progression and the underlying mechanism.

The transcript and protein expression of Hsp90 in normal cervical and HPV16
cervical cancer tissues and cell lines were detected by qRT-PCR, immunohistochemistry staining and Western blot. Hsp90 knockdown clones were established using HPV16
cervical cancer cell line Caski and SiHa cells. The effect of Hsp90 knockdown on HER2/PI3K/AKT pathway and PD-L1 expression was characterized using qRT-PCR and Western blot analysis. Cell proliferation and migration were determined using MTT and transwell assays. Using mouse xenograft tumor model, the impact of Hsp90 knockdown and PD-L1 overexpression on tumor progression was evaluated.

Hsp90 expression was up-regulated in HPV16
cervical cancer tissues and cells. Knockdown of Hsp90 inhibited proliferation and migration of Caski and SiHa cells. PD-L1 expression in cervical cancer tissues was positively correlated with Hsp90 expression, and Hsp90 regulated PD-L1 expression via HER2/PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. The results of mouse xenograft tumor model demonstrated Hsp90 knockdown suppressed tumor formation and overexpression of PD-L1 simultaneously eliminated the cancer-suppressive effect of Hsp90 knockdown.

In this study, we demonstrated a promising tumor-suppressive effect of Hsp90 knockdown in HPV16
cervical cancers, and investigated the underlying molecular pathway. Our results suggested that Hsp90 knockdown holds great therapeutic potential in treating HPV16
cervical cancers.
In this study, we demonstrated a promising tumor-suppressive effect of Hsp90 knockdown in HPV16+ cervical cancers, and investigated the underlying molecular pathway. Our results suggested that Hsp90 knockdown holds great therapeutic potential in treating HPV16+ cervical cancers.
To compare symptoms of clinical androgen deficiency between men with migraine, men with cluster headache and non-headache male controls.

We performed a cross-sectional study using two validated questionnaires to assess symptoms of androgen deficiency in males with migraine, cluster headache, and non-headache controls. Primary outcome was the mean difference in androgen deficiency scores. Generalized linear models were used adjusting for age, BMI, smoking and lifetime depression. As secondary outcome we assessed the percentage of patients reporting to score below average on four sexual symptoms (beard growth, morning erections, libido and sexual potency) as these items were previously shown to more specifically differentiate androgen deficiency symptoms from (comorbid) anxiety and depression.

The questionnaires were completed by n = 534/853 (63%) men with migraine, n = 437/694 (63%) men with cluster headache and n = 152/209 (73%) controls. Selleckchem AHPN agonist Responders were older compared to non-responders and more likely to suffer from lifetime depression. Patients reported more severe symptoms of clinical androgen deficiency compared with controls, with higher AMS scores (Aging Males Symptoms; mean difference ± SE migraine 5.44 ± 0.90, p < 0.001; cluster headache 5.62 ± 0.99, p < 0.001) and lower qADAM scores (quantitative Androgen Deficiency in the Aging Male; migraine - 3.16 ± 0.50, p < 0.001; cluster headache - 5.25 ± 0.56, p < 0.001). Additionally, both patient groups more often reported to suffer from any of the specific sexual symptoms compared to controls (18.4% migraine, 20.6% cluster headache, 7.2% controls, p = 0.001).

Men with migraine and cluster headache more often suffer from symptoms consistent with clinical androgen deficiency than males without a primary headache disorder.

Mucormycosis is a rare, lifethreatening invasive fungal infection. In this report, two cases who developed rhino-orbito-cerebral mucormycosis shortly after having COVID-19 infection were presented. The first case was a 68-year old woman who admitted to our clinic with orbital cellulitis in her left eye and had a known diagnosis of asthma and rheumatoid arthritis. She was diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia 40 days ago, stayed in the intensive care unit for a long time, and received pulse steroid (1000 mg methylprednisolone), interleukin-1 (IL-1) inhibitor (anakinra) and broad-spectrum antibiotic treatments together with antiviral therapy during this period. The second case was a 63-year-old male patient with known diabetes mellitus, hypertension and retinitis pigmentosa, with a history of hospitalization in the intensive care unit due to Cly consider possible fungal infections in patients with COVID-19.Fungal peritonitis is less commonly seen than bacterial peritonitis in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD), but it is a serious complication with high morbidity and mortality. It often results in catheter loss and modifying therapy from PD to hemodialysis. The causative organisms are often Candida species. link2 In this report, a PD-associated peritonitis caused by Wickerhamomyces anomalus (Candida pelliculosa), a rare fungal infection agent with increasing clinical importance by causing different clinical pictures was presented. An outpatient peritoneal fluid culture was sent from a 48-yearold male patient, who had been undergoing continuous peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) for 9 years, due to abdominal pain and blur in peritoneal fluid during dialysis. The patient admitted to the emergency department four days later due to the persistence of his complaints. A sample of peritoneal fluid was taken in the emergency department and sent to the laboratory for microbiological analysis. In the direct microscopical exa improvement, and the response to treatment is not complete in PD-associated peritonitis to prevent delays in diagnosis and treatment.Primary immunodeficiencies are disorders that cause clinical findings ranging from mild diseases to life-threatening diseases in a wide age range. Infections are the most common complications of primary immunodeficiencies. Caspase associated recruitment domain-9 (CARD9) is a protein that plays a role in fungal immune response. link3 CARD9 deficiency is one of the primary immunodeficiency disorders that show autosomal recessive inheritance and can cause different clinical pictures. It has been associated with various fungal infections such as superficial or deep dermatophytosis, invasive pheohifomycosis, cutaneous mucormycosis, extrapulmonary aspergillosis, mucocutaneous or invasive candidiasis. The most common infections in CARD9 deficiency are caused by Candida spp. In this report, a case of Candida albicans meningoencephalitis due to CARD9 deficiency was presented. It was learned from the medical story that a 37 years old male patient had no known disease or drug use, but had recurrent oral candidiasis and cutanealization due to delayed diagnosis, cerebral complications due to recurrent C.albicans meningoencephalitis, and insufficient treatment as a result of failure to receive the granulocyte colony stimulating factor (G-CSF) treatment. Persistent fungal infections that develop in CARD9 deficiency cause serious complications and mortality. Considering the frequency of CARD9 deficiency in the Turkish population and the lack of diagnostic testing in our country, it is thought that there may be many patients who cannot be diagnosed and who progress with mortality or morbidity. In conclusion, this case was presented to emphasize the consideration of CARD9 deficiency in case of persistent invasive fungal infection or recurrent invasive fungal infection after treatment despite effective antifungal treatment in children and adults who do not have known risk factors for invasive fungal infections.Candida auris is a species of fungus that has gained importance in recent years owing to its ability to cause hospital infections and epidemics, resistant to antifungal agents and disinfection processes and frequently misidentified by commercial systems. Hospital outbreaks caused by C.auris have been reported from some countries. It has been determined that C.auris has lower virulence than Candida albicans; however, it is associated with high mortality rates in immunocompromised individuals. An increase in the incidence of invasive fungal infections which can lead to serious complications and death, has been identified in severe coronavirus-2019 (COVID-19) patients or immunocompromised individuals with underlying disease. Studies demonstrated an increase in the frequency of C.auris isolation in COVID-19 patients with candidemia. In this report, the first case of COVID-19 positive C.auris fungemia detected in Turkey was presented. A 71-year-old male patient with a history of myocardial infarction, diabetes mels were detected as 3 µg/ml for amphotericin B; > 256 µg/ml for fluconazole; 0.19 µg/ml for voriconazole; 0.19 µg/ml for itraconazole; 0.016 µg/ml for posaconazole; 1 µg/ml for caspofungin and 0.094 µg/ml for anidulafungin by using the antibiotic gradient method. The patient's initial treatment comprised meropenem 3 x 1 g, vancomycin 2 x 1 g, caspofungin 1 x 70 mg, and continued as caspofungine 1 x 50 mg after the loading dose, and vancomycin 1 x 1 g/48 hours from the third day of treatment. The patient died on the ninth day after developing candidemia. The present case is the first case of fungemia caused by C.auris in a COVID-19 positive patient in Turkey, and it emphasizes the need of caution for fungemia due to C.auris in intensive care units in our country which has a high COVID-19 incidence.Q fever is a zoonosis caused by Coxiella burnetii. In this report, a case of chronic Q fever endocarditis with pancytopenia and hypergammaglobulinemia mimicking a lymphoproliferative disease was presented. A 39-years-old male living in Çatalca and whose family is engaged in animal husbandry admitted with the complaints of weakness and fatigue. The patient had aortic valve replacement 29 years ago and had aortic valve re-replacement, and ascending aorta grafting because of endocarditis three years ago. It was revealed that the second operation of the patient was due to possible infective endocarditis, but no definitive agent could be identified. He was evaluated for massive hepatosplenomegaly, pancytopenia, hypergammaglobulinemia, presence of M-spike and elevated β-2 microglobulin levels and was referred to our hematology clinic with a preliminary diagnosis of lymphoproliferative disease. Lymphoplasmacytic lymphoma was excluded with the result of bone marrow biopsy and he was referred to our clinic for the invrity, wide range of clinical presentations of disease could also lead to delayed diagnosis. Among patients with chronic Q fever, continuous bacteremia and antigenic stimulus causes inflammatory syndrome with hepatosplenomegaly, hypergammaglobulinemia and, presence of autoantibodies which leads to misdiagnoses of rheumatologic, autoimmune or hematologic diseases Chronic Q fever should be investigated in patients with known valvulopathy and chronic hepatomegaly or splenomegaly, pancytopenia, hypergammaglobulinemia, and unexplained autoantibody positivity.
