Engineered Chitosan‐Derived Nanocarrier for Efficient siRNA Delivery to Peripheral and Central Neurons

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a novel chitosan‐based nanocarrier functionalized with a neurotropic protein for efficient siRNA delivery to neurons. The polyplexes demonstrate enhanced neuronal binding, retrograde transport, and PTEN silencing, promoting axonal outgrowth.

Suppression of tubular anion transport by an inhibitor of serum protein binding in uremia

open access: yesKidney International, 1981
Extraction of acidified uremic serum yields an inhibitor of phenytoin binding to normal serum proteins and improves binding to the uremic serum proteins. The extract contains binding inhibitors (Ix) that may accumulate because of poor renal excretion and that are presumed to compete for binding sites on albumin, the principle binding protein in serum ...

Carbon‐Based Flexible Electrode for Efficient Electrochemical Generation of Reactive Chlorine Species in Tumor Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A flexible electrode loaded with a carbon nanowire network (CC@C‐NWN) is developed for electrochemically generating reactive chlorine species (RCS) from abundant chloride ions in body fluids for tumor therapy. CC@C‐NWN enhances chlorine evolution, inducing redox dysregulation and synergistic apoptosis‐ferroptosis in tumor cells.

Direct Surface Modification of the Epidermis Using Mussel‐Inspired Polydopamine with Multiple Anti‐Biofouling Functions

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Surface modification using mussel‐derived polydopamine (PDA) is a versatile and robust biocompatible strategy that enables direct application to various epidermal surfaces, regardless of their morphological complexity or surface characteristics. The PDA‐coated epidermis exhibits multiple anti‐biofouling functionalities, including antibacterial and anti‐

A Network of SLC and ABC Transporter and DME Genes Involved in Remote Sensing and Signaling in the Gut-Liver-Kidney Axis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Genes central to drug absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination (ADME) also regulate numerous endogenous molecules. The Remote Sensing and Signaling Hypothesis argues that an ADME gene-centered network-including SLC and ABC "drug" transporters,

Tumor‐Targeted Exosome‐Based Heavy Atom‐Free Nanosensitizers With Long‐Lived Excited States for Safe and Effective Sono‐Photodynamic Therapy of Solid Tumors

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered exosome‐based heavy atom‐free nanosensitizers are developed for safe and targeted sono‐photodynamic therapy of solid tumors. The IR820‐TPE‐loaded, biotin‐conjugated exosomes (IR820‐TPE@B‐Exo) demonstrate significant promise for NIR fluorescence imaging‐guided sono‐photodynamic cancer therapy.

2. ORGANIC ANION TRANSPORTERS OF THE SLCO FAMILY. PROPERTIES, STRUCTURE, CONTRIBUTION TO THE FUNCTIONING OF THE XENOBIOTIC BIOTRANSFORMATION SYSTEM IN ANIMALS (A REWIEW)

open access: yesTransactions of the Karelian Research Centre of the Russian Academy of Sciences, 2017
Organic anion transporter proteins (OATР) are members of the Na-independent transport system that at physiological values of рН transport substantial amounts of both endogenous (bile acids, eicosanoids, steroid and thyroid hormones, etc.) and exogenous ...

Rat Organic Anion Transport Protein 1A1 Interacts Directly With Organic Anion Transport Protein 1A4 Facilitating Its Maturation and Trafficking to the Hepatocyte Plasma Membrane

open access: yesHepatology, 2019
Organic anion transport proteins (OATPs) on the basolateral surface of hepatocytes mediate uptake of a number of drugs and endogenous compounds. Previous studies showed that rat OATP1A1 (rOATP1A1) has a postsynaptic density protein, drosophila disc large tumor suppressor, zonula occludens‐1 protein (PDZ) consensus binding motif at its C‐terminus and ...

Immunosuppressive Cytokine‐Tethered Hydrogel for Treating Rheumatoid Arthritis

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
An injectable hydrogel is developed by chemically tethering IL‐4, an immunosuppressive cytokine, to a hyaluronic acid‐based backbone. The hydrogel reduces joint friction and exerts immunomodulatory effects. In a rheumatoid arthritis (RA) mouse model, it reduced inflammation, preserved cartilage, and promoted anti‐inflammatory immune responses.
