Hemoglobin's α‐Helix‐to‐β‐Sheet Transition Enables Targeted mRNA Delivery to the Lung

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Acidic heating converts hemoglobin into β‐sheet‐rich fibrils with positively charged surfaces. These hemoglobin fibrils electrostatically complex IL‐11 scFv mRNA, selectively bind circulating platelets, and hitchhike to the lung, where they are enriched in fibroblasts.

Kinetics of Intraparenchymal Mononuclear Cells in A Murine Model of Pulmonary Fibrosis Induced by Bleomycin [PDF]

, 1994
Bleomycin (BLM), an anti-tumor drug, has been observed to cause interstitial pneumonia followed by subsequent fibrosis. In order to elucidate the cellular mechanism in the fibrotic process, we examined inflammatory cells in the lungs of mice after ...

Identification of a Nonribosomal Peptide Analog With Activity Against Multiple Gram‐Positive Bacteria via a Synthetic Bioinformatic Natural Product Discovery Approach

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The genome of Rhodococcus erythropolis D‐1 was analyzed by bioinformatic tools to mine a novel nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) gene cluster. A nonribosomal peptide analog ZURJC5 associated with the NRPS was chemically synthesized. Through structure‐activity relationship studies, ZURJC28 was ultimately obtained and showed antibacterial activity ...

Basal Cells Contribute to Pulmonary Fibrosis via SP1-Mediated Senescence-Associated Secretory Phenotype. [PDF]

Clin Respir J
Basal cells are expanded within the small airway epithelium in IPF. This change is associated with the severity of fibrosis and may participate in disease pathogenesis via SP1‐mediated senescence‐associated secretory phenotype (SASP). ABSTRACT Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive interstitial lung disease with limited treatment options and ...

The Nuclear Receptor Testicular Receptor 4 Orchestrates Cytoskeletal Organization in a G Protein Subunit Alpha 12/Rho‐Associated Protein Kinase–Dependent Manner to Promote Myofibroblast Differentiation and Tissue Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors have been implicated in inflammatory processes and pathologic tissue remodeling and have emerged as attractive targets for pharmaceutical intervention. However, the role of testicular receptor 4 (TR4; or Nr2c2) in fibroblast activation and rheumatologic diseases has not yet been investigated ...

Integrated Clinical and Proteomic Profiling of CD19 CAR‐T Cell Therapy in Progressive Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective To characterize the clinical, immunologic, and proteomic changes associated with CD19 chimeric antigen receptor T‐cell therapy in patients with progressive systemic sclerosis. Methods Patients with progressive systemic sclerosis received CD19 CAR‐T cell therapy and were followed longitudinally for safety, clinical efficacy, immune ...

Fulminant hyperpyrexia induced by bleomycin [PDF]

, 1989
Mild and self-limiting fever following bleomycin use is common, and a fatal hyperpyrexial response occurs rarely. In previously reported cases, such hyperpyrexia occurred either after the initial administration of the drug or during subsequent therapy ...

Loss of POGLUT2/3‐mediated O‐glucosylation produces lung and aortic phenotypes reminiscent of fibrillin1 mutants

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Fibrillins provide a scaffold for elastic fiber formation, which enables lung recoil and aortic compliance. Abnormal fibrillin microfibrils, as in Marfan syndrome, lead to enlarged alveoli, vascular stiffening, and aneurysms. Our earlier studies suggested that fibrillin function depends on O‐glucosylation of its epidermal growth ...
