Bacteria‐Responsive Nanostructured Drug Delivery Systems for Targeted Antimicrobial Therapy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Bacteria‐responsive nanocarriers are designed to release antimicrobials only in the presence of infection‐specific cues. This selective activation ensures drug release precisely at the site of infection, avoiding premature or indiscriminate release, and enhancing efficacy.

Insight Into ABCG1-Mediated Cholesterol Efflux [PDF]
Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis, and Vascular Biology, 2006 Macrophages in the arterial intima take up modified LDL and become cholesterol-ester laden foam cells, which are the primary cell type in newly formed fatty streak lesions, and which play an important role throughout lesion progression and plaque vulnerability.

Independent Effects of Kidney Function and Cholesterol Efflux on Cardiovascular Mortality
Biomedicines, 2022 Background: Impaired renal function is associated with cardiovascular and all-cause mortality. In the general population, HDL-cholesterol is associated with cardiovascular events, which is not true in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD).
