Clinical significance of serum M30 and M65 levels in metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma
M30 and M65 are relatively new assays that detect different circulating forms of the epithelial cell structural protein cytokeratin 18. This study was conducted to investigate the serum levels of M30 and M65 in patients with metastatic pancreatic adenocarcinoma (MPA) and the relationship with tumor progression and known prognostic parameters.

Evaluation of serum M30 and M65 activity in patients with stage-I endometrial cancer
We aimed to analyse the prognostic value of serum oxidative stress parameters and apoptotic markers of serum M30/65 levels in endometrial cancer patients. Serum M30/65 levels and oxidative stress parameters were evaluated in 52 women with stage I endometrial cancer (n = 26) and a control group of healthy females (n = 26).

Clinical Evaluation of M30 and M65 ELISA Cell Death Assays as Circulating Biomarkers in a Drug-Sensitive Tumor, Testicular Cancer [PDF]
Circulating full-length and caspase-cleaved cytokeratin 18 (CK18) are considered biomarkers of chemotherapy-induced cell death measured using a combination of the M30 and M65 ELISAs.

Onset of heart failure determines the hepatic cell death pattern
Background and rationale. Acute and chronic heart failure (HF) may affect the liver, but the underlying mechanisms that lead to progressive liver damage are poorly understood.

Association of Circulating Markers of Microbial Translocation and Hepatic Inflammation with Liver Injury in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes [PDF]
Background: Virtually the entire spectrum of liver disease is observed in association with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM); indeed, T2DM is now the most common cause of liver disease in the U.S.

From the Liver to Heart in Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease: Single-Cell and Serum Evidence for Cytokeratin 18 in Predicting Cardiovascular Risk. [PDF]
Background This study is aimed at measuring the expression of serum cytokeratin 18 (CK18) in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) and at evaluating its ability to discriminate NAFLD patients with and without coronary heart disease (CHD), thereby elucidating its potential role in reflecting the link between NAFLD and increased ...

Multicore SPION Clustering within Poly(amino acid) Corrals for Enhanced MRI Contrast and Drug Release. [PDF]
Clusters of small hydrophobic SPIONs stabilized by amphiphilic poly(amino acid) block copolymers with varying degrees of lipophilicity. Magnetic field inhomogeneities arising from dipolar interactions yield high and selective transverse relaxivity for negative contrast MRI and provide for stimulated drug release with initial drug loading determined by ...

Exploration of Multiple Non-Invasive Tests for Assessing Response to Treatment in a Semaglutide Phase 2b Trial in Patients with MASH. [PDF]
This study investigated multiple non‐invasive tests (NIT) in a phase 2b study of patients with MASH and fibrosis treated with semaglutide. Findings revealed that semaglutide significantly improved NIT scores versus placebo from as early as 28 weeks. The results support the use of NITs to assess a treatment response to semaglutide.
