A Novel Anti-Inflammatory Effect for High Density Lipoprotein.

PLoS ONE, 2015
High density lipoprotein has anti-inflammatory effects in addition to mediating reverse cholesterol transport. While many of the chronic anti-inflammatory effects of high density lipoprotein (HDL) are attributed to changes in cell adhesion molecules ...

Targeting Amastigote and Trypomastigote Phases: Multi‐Epitope Vaccine Strategy Against Trypanosoma cruzi

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Effective vaccines against Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas disease, are urgently needed. Here, we report the design and in silico validation of a novel multiepitope vaccine construct targeting the key surface proteins ASP‐2 and gp82. Using a comprehensive immunoinformatics pipeline, we identified and selected 38 potent T‐cell (

Overcoming intranasal delivery barriers with ultrastable polyzwitterionic siRNA nanocages for enhanced glioblastoma therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A ROS‐responsive, zwitterionic nanocage enables stable, intranasal siRNA delivery to glioblastoma, promoting deep tumor penetration via non‐degradative pathways and trigeminal nerve transport. This platform achieves durable gene silencing and tumor suppression, offering a non‐invasive, storage‐stable strategy for treating glioma and other neurological ...

Nonlytic Exocytosis of Cryptococcus neoformans from Macrophages Occurs In Vivo and Is Influenced by Phagosomal pH

mBio, 2011
A unique aspect of the interaction of the fungus Cryptococcus neoformans with macrophages is the phenomenon of nonlytic exocytosis, also referred to as “vomocytosis” or phagosome extrusion/expulsion, which involves the escape of fungal cells from the ...

GLP‐1 Receptor Agonists and Endoscopy: Understanding Gastric Stasis, Aspiration Risk, and Contemporary Peri‐Procedural Guidance

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
Pharmacological mechanisms and physiologic effects of GLP‐1 receptor agonists relevant to peri‐endoscopic risk. ABSTRACT The global increase in obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) has led to a higher use of glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonists (GLP‐1RAs) among patients ...

Disentangling Sex Differences in Sulfonylurea Drug Response With Genome‐Wide Association Studies in Individuals With Type 2 Diabetes

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
A sex‐stratified genome‐wide association study of sulfonylurea response identified sex‐specific genetic loci associated with HbA1c reduction in individuals with type 2 diabetes. Replication and functional validation supported a male‐specific association at the TMEM64/NECAB1 locus, highlighting the potential of sex‐informed pharmacogenomics to advance ...

The segregation of Calb1, Calb2, and Prph neurons reveals distinct and mixed neuronal populations and projections to hair cells in the inner ear and central nuclei

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Three populations of hair cells have a distinct expression of Calb1 and Calb2. (A, A′D) The central is highly positive for Calb1 while surrounding HC are positive for Calb2. Later, a calyx forms primarily with Calb1. (B, B′, D′, D″) Saccule and utricle start out positive for Calb2 but will upregulate the Calb1 in the striola that is primarily forming ...
