Serum cystatin C is an early renal dysfunction biomarker in patients with hepatitis C virus

Egyptian Liver Journal, 2022
Background Hepatitis C virus (HCV) may induce extrahepatic manifestations as acute or chronic renal dysfunction. The aim was to evaluate the diagnostic role of some biomarkers as cystatin C, cryoglobulins, rheumatoid factor (RF), and complement C3 for ...

Tracking of [14C]Polystyrene Nanoplastics in Pregnant Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates [14C]polystyrene nanoplastic ([14C]PS) translocation in late‐stage pregnant mice after intranasal (0.5 mg of [14C]PS on GD12, GD14, and GD16, n = 6) and intravenous administration (1.5 mg of [14C]PS on GD16, n = 6). 14C‐radiolabel allows quantitative tracking of unmodified polystyrene nanoplastics.

Copper Depletion Nanoparticles Potentiate Cancer Immunotherapy by Avoiding Innate and Adaptive Immune Resistance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A mitochondria‐targeted copper depletion nanoplatform (CYN‐CDA@Alb) was developed to selectively disrupt tumor mitochondria copper, which then reprogrammed the tumor immune microenvironment by depressing PD‐L1 and CD47 expression simultaneously. By doing this, CYN‐CDA@Alb reversed radiotherapy‐induced immune tolerance, showing the potential usage of ...

Bioorthogonal Fluorogenic Reporters for Noninvasive Imaging and Urinalysis of Immunotherapeutic Response in Renal Cell Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reported renal‐clearable bio‐orthogonal near‐infrared fluorogenic probes (BGRs) that specifically imaging and urinalysis of granzyme B for dynamic evaluation of RCC immunotherapy. BGRs not only differentiate immunotherapeutic responses in orthotopic RCC mice, but also enable sensitive optical urinalysis of granzyme B in clinical specimens ...

Association between blood urea nitrogen to serum albumin ratio and in-hospital mortality of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in the intensive care unit: a retrospective cohort study

The Egyptian Journal of Bronchology
Background Blood urea nitrogen to serum albumin ratio (BAR) was found to be a valuable tool for predicting mortality in different diseases. However, few studies have explored the association between BAR and in-hospital mortality in critically ill ...

Fluoride exposure and kidney and liver function among adolescents in the United States: NHANES, 2013–2016

Environment International, 2019
Background: Hepato- and nephrotoxicity of fluoride have been demonstrated in animals, but few studies have examined potential effects in humans. This population-based study examines the relationship between chronic low-level fluoride exposure and kidney ...
