Advancing design strategies in smart stimulus‐responsive liposomes for drug release and nanomedicine

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of stimulus‐responsive liposomes designed for controlled drug release and nanomedicine. The innermost circle represents different liposomal structures, including unilamellar, multilamellar, and multivesicular liposomes. The middle layer illustrates the responsive phospholipid components.

Apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) Mimetic Peptide P2a by Restoring CholesterolEsterification Unmasks ApoA-I Anti-Inflammatory Endogenous Activity In Vivo. CO-FIRST AUTHOR [PDF]

, 2012
The acute-phase protein haptoglobin (Hpt) binds apolipoprotein A-I (ApoA-I) and impairs its action on lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase, an enzyme that plays a key role in reverse cholesterol transport.

Impact of tomato variety and homogenization pressure on in vitro lipid digestion and lycopene bioaccessibility in tomato emulsions

Food Biomacromolecules, EarlyView.
Tomato variety and processing impact lycopene bioaccessibility. Tomato emulsions with high pectin content decreased the in vitro lipid digestion and negatively affected lycopene bioaccessibility. High pressure homogenization may enhance the release of lycopene into emulsion oil droplets, but it may also reduce the transfer of lycopene into the micellar

The Role and Therapeutic Potential of Voltage‐Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 in Metabolism‐Related Disorders

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, the global burden of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis has steadily increased, becoming a serious public health issue that poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Potassium channels, particularly the voltage‐gated Kv1.3 subtype, serve as critical regulators of cellular
