Advanced In Vitro Platforms for Experimental Liver Research: From Organoids and Liver‐on‐Chip to Omics and Artificial Intelligence

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hepatocytes perform essential physiological functions in the human body. Gaining more profound insight into the liver structure, diseases, and physiology by using in vitro models can help to propose more relevant clinical applications. Conventional in vitro liver models, such as two‐dimensional (2D) cell cultures, fail to adequately replicate ...

Exosomes promote cetuximab resistance via the PTEN/Akt pathway in colon cancer cells

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2017
Cetuximab is widely used in patients with metastatic colon cancer expressing wildtype KRAS. However, acquired drug resistance limits its clinical efficacy. Exosomes are nanosized vesicles secreted by various cell types.

Defect‐engineered tungsten oxide nanowires as redox‐metabolic nanozymes for gut inflammation‐infection syndromes

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Defect‐engineered WO3 nanowires serve as a multifunctional nanozyme platform to treat IBD complicated by Salmonella co‐infection. By integrating catalytic ROS/RNS scavenging and targeted metabolic interference of pathogens via molybdenum substitution, these nanowires effectively resolve intestinal oxidative stress, inhibit infection, and restore ...

Dietary Artificial Sweeteners: From Chemical Transformation in Food to Gut Microbial Processing

ChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This review article unites classical and recent findings on the stability of artificial sweeteners in food. The focus is on ten sweeteners approved in the European Union: their chemical stability during processing and storage, individual degradation products, and their interactions with the intestinal microbiota.

Virtual Twin Approach Using Physiologically Based Pharmacokinetic Modeling to Support Precision Dosing of Valproic Acid in Geriatric Patients

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Personalized dosing is particularly important for drugs with narrow therapeutic indices in geriatric patients, who exhibit substantial physiological variability and limited pharmacokinetic (PK) evidence to guide individualized dose selection. Valproic acid (VPA) is an effective treatment option for bipolar disorder in older adults, yet dosing largely ...

Bacampicillin Uptake Is Shared with Thiamine in Caco-2 Cells

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2007
Bacampicillin was developed as a prodrug to improve the intestinal absorption of its metabolite ampicillin. This study was undertaken to characterize bacampicillin transport in Caco-2 cells. The uptake of bacampicillin in Caco-2 cells was significantly greater than those of ampicillin and pivampicillin.

Advancing Pregnancy and Pediatric Science through the NIH Transporter Elucidation Network

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Human gestation is characterized by dynamic changes in maternal physiology and maturation of tissue functions before and after birth. The fetus and neonate are highly dependent upon transfer of maternal nutrients via the placenta and lactating mammary gland, which frequently involve selective membrane transporter proteins.

Legume lectin phytohemagglutinin reduces transepithelial electrical resistance by counteracting the chaperone function of heat shock protein-70

Journal of Nutritional Science
Legume lectins represent a broad class of environmental toxicants that bind to cell surface glycoproteins. Raw red kidney beans (RRKB), a widely consumed common source of dietary protein, are rich in the lectin phytohemagglutinin (PHA).
