Current status of liver transplantation for non‐B non‐C liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma
Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, Volume 7, Issue 1, Page 42-52, January 2023., 2023 Recently, the cases of LT for non‐B non‐C cirrhosis and HCC have been increasing in Japan as well as worldwide. Perioperative management of non‐B non‐C liver disease is problematic due to various risk factors, including alcohol consumption and metabolic syndrome‐related risks, such as obesity and diabetes mellitus.

Phoresis and Enhanced Diffusion Compete in Enzyme Chemotaxis [PDF]
Nano Lett. 2018, 18, 4, 2711-2717, 2021 Chemotaxis of enzymes in response to gradients in the concentration of their substrate has been widely reported in recent experiments, but a basic understanding of the process is still lacking. Here, we develop a microscopic theory for chemotaxis, valid for enzymes and other small molecules.

BC‐11 is a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor that impedes SARS‐CoV‐2 host cell entry
Archiv der Pharmazie, Volume 356, Issue 1, January 2023., 2023 Drug repurposing has the potential to accelerate the discovery of TMPRSS2 inhibitors acting as COVID‐19 antivirals. In this regard, a low throughput screening led to the identification of BC‐11 as a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor (IC50 = 1.44 µM), displaying significant SARS‐CoV‐2 entry inhibition (EC50 = 66 µM). Abstract Host cell entry of severe
