Cell Calcification Models and Their Implications for Medicine and Biomaterial Research

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Calcification, is the process by which the tissues containing minerals are formed, occurring during normal physiological processes, or in pathological conditions. Here, it is aimed to give a comprehensive overview of the range of cell models available, and the approaches taken by these models, highlighting when and how methodological divergences arise,

Silencing Myostatin Using In Vivo Self‐Assembled siRNA Protects Against Cancer‐ and Dexamethasone‐Induced Muscle Atrophy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports an in vivo self‐assembled siRNA strategy that enables the liver to generate small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) tagged with a muscle‐targeting peptide (MSP) and naturally loaded with myostatin (MSTN)‐siRNA. These MSP‐tagged sEVs are systemically delivered to skeletal muscle, efficiently silence MSTN, promote muscle hypertrophy, and ...

Ascorbic Acid Modulates Collagen Properties in Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteoporotic Bone: Insights into Chemical, Mechanical, and Biological Regulation

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Osteoporosis from long‐term glucocorticoid (GIOP) use elevates susceptibility to fracture. This study shows GCs impair ascorbic acid (AA) metabolism in osteoblasts, collagen synthesis and extracellular matrix integrity. AA enhanced collagen biochemical and mechanical properties and restored osteoblast and endothelial function. These findings underscore

Harnessing Advances in Bone Tissue Engineering for Design of Bone‐on‐Chip Systems

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Bone‐on‐chip (BoC) systems demonstrate significant potential as next‐generation models to study human (patho)physiology and evaluate new therapies. However, progress toward functional, human‐like BoCs has been hindered by the structural and functional complexity of bone. This perspective discusses how insights from bone tissue engineering can guide BoC

Molecular mechanisms of novel selective glucocorticoid receptor agonist action in breast cancer cells

Успехи молекулярной онкологии
Introduction. Glucocorticoids (GC) are widely used in breast cancer (BC) therapy to reduce the side effects of cytostatic drugs and may exhibit antiproliferative effects on luminal BC cells.

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

Multiomics Analyses Reveal an Essential Role of Tryptophan in Treatment of csDMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease characterized by joint inflammation. Approximately 50% of patients show insufficient response to traditional synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs. This study aims to elucidate differential molecular profiles of the mechanisms underlying drug responses through multi‐omics strategy.
