Biomimetic Nanoparticle Delivering Colchicine to Target Endothelial Inflammation for Atherosclerosis Treatment

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Platelet membrane‐coated layered double hydroxide nanoparticles were engineered to target inflamed endothelium at early‐stage atherosclerosis and enhance therapeutic efficacy. The biomimetic platform improves stability, immune escape, and inflamed vascular cell targeting, resulting in reduced oxidative stress and downregulated adhesion molecules.

Modeling of colchicine biotransformation by COVID-19 associated Klebsiella pneumoniae: synergistic effects of cell adaptation and gamma irradiation

BMC Pharmacology and Toxicology
Background Microbial biotransformation strategies for prescribed drugs have attracted great interest because the biotransformation process simulates what happens in the human metabolism and may be considered a resource for new pharmaceuticals.

Integrated Clinical and Proteomic Profiling of CD19 Chimeric Antigen Receptor T Cell Therapy in Progressive Systemic Sclerosis

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

Efficacy and Safety of Nanoencapsulated Sirolimus Plus Pegadricase: Results From the Randomized, Placebo‐Controlled Phase 3 Trials

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective DISSOLVE I and II examined the efficacy and safety of nanoencapsulated sirolimus (NAS) plus pegadricase (NASP) in patients with uncontrolled gout (UG). Methods In these double‐blind, placebo‐controlled Phase 3 trials of NASP, patients were randomized 1:1:1 to infusions of high‐dose (HD) or low‐dose (LD) NAS plus pegadricase (HD NASP, LD NASP,

From anthelmintic to neuro‐oncology: A systematic review of mebendazole repurposing for brain tumour therapy

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Mebendazole (MBZ), a benzimidazole anthelmintic with established clinical use, has emerged as a repurposing candidate for primary brain tumours due to its multimodal anticancer actions and central nervous system penetrance. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical and clinical evidence evaluating MBZ's efficacy, mechanisms of action ...

What Makes an “Ideal” Cell Line for Recombinant Adeno‐Associated Virus Production?

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Several host cell types have been used to produce rAAVs to date. Cell line‐specific traits that are beneficial in the context of rAAV manufacturing are reviewed here, with the goal of developing a consensus on the ‘ideal’ characteristics that an rAAV production host should possess (created with Biorender.com).
