Tacrolimus exposure during pregnancy in kidney and liver transplantation recipients: A comparison between whole blood and plasma concentration‐to‐dose ratios

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Tacrolimus monitoring is generally performed in whole blood (WB). Most (>85%) of circulating tacrolimus is bound to red blood cells. During pregnancy, WB monitoring might be suboptimal because of physiological changes including increased plasma volume and decreased haematocrit.

Does the reduction in obstetric hospitals result in an unintended decreased in-hospital delivery utilisation? A causal multilevel analysis in China

BMJ Public Health
Introduction China’s progress towards achieving Sustainable Development Goals for maternal health is largely attributed to a reduction in maternal mortality rates, driven by increased in-hospital delivery services utilisation.

Physiologically‐based pharmacokinetic modelling of uridine 5′‐diphosphoglucorosultransferase (UGT) substrate drugs in pregnant women

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims While pregnancy‐related changes in phase I enzyme activity are well‐documented, less is known about the impact on phase II enzymes. This study aimed to test the hypothesis that changes in the pharmacokinetics (PK) of uridine 5′‐diphosphoglucuronosyltransferase (UGT) substrates during pregnancy result from altered enzyme expression or activity ...

Nano‐networks via reaction‐induced self‐assembly coordinate spatiotemporal multi‐drug delivery for acute kidney injury therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Multifunctional nano‐networks (NNWs) are prepared via reaction‐induced self‐assembly (RISA) of spermidine (SPD), epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), 2‐formylphenylboronic acid (2‐FPBA), and deferoxamine (DFO) through dynamic iminoboronate bonds. These NNWs leverage the oxidative AKI microenvironment to trigger disintegration, enabling site‐specific ...

Tetraspanin‐ESCRT sorting drives miR‐29b packaging into extracellular vesicles to reverse fibrosis in intrauterine adhesions

BMEMat, EarlyView.
MiR‐29b is enriched in extracellular vesicles (EVs) via a tetraspanin transporter‐dependent endocytosis and sorting complex required for the endosomal transport (ESCRT)‐dependent pathway. These EVs target the 3′ untranslated region (3′UTR) of TGFB2, thereby inhibiting the TGF‐β/Smad3 signaling pathway and repairing endometrial damage in intrauterine ...
