Sustained‐Release Sitagliptin Microneedles for Scar Prevention via Fibroblast‐to‐Adipocyte Conversion

open access: yesSmall Science, EarlyView.
The authors propose a novel use for the conventional hypoglycemic drug, dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP4+) inhibitor sitagliptin. Sitagliptin prevents scar formation during wound healing through fibroblast‐to‐adipocyte conversion at least by preventing DPP4‐mediated truncation of IGF‐1.

Perineural Invasion in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: Recapitulating Its Importance and Defining Future Directions

open access: yesUnited European Gastroenterology Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most lethal malignancies, mainly due to its aggressive nature, early metastasis, diagnosis at late stages, and limited response to systemic anticancer therapy. Perineural invasion (PNI), defined as the infiltration of neoplastic cells along nerve fibers and within nerve sheaths, is ...

Current Insights Into Individualized Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergic Rhinitis Based on Phenotype and Endotype

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa characterized by allergen sensitization and the involvement of multiple inflammatory mediators. Currently, the treatment of AR mainly includes symptomatic relief, anti‐inflammatory therapy, and nerve desensitization. However, these treatments have limitations in fully

The Impact of Environmental Pollution and Climate Change on Allergic Rhinitis and Lung Diseases

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution and climate change seriously affect human health, leading to the onset and exacerbation of chronic respiratory diseases, such as allergic rhinitis and lung diseases. Over the past several decades, increasing air pollution and environmental exposure owing to global urbanization, industrialization, and rapid economic ...

Maternal glucocorticoids have persistent effects on offspring social phenotype irrespective of opportunity for social buffering

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study tests whether early‐life maternal association buffers offspring from the effects of prenatal stress in a facultatively social lizard. Despite clear effects of maternal glucocorticoids on growth and social behaviour, social associations did not mitigate these effects, revealing limits to social buffering in this species.

Pharmacological and Mechanistic Interventions for Cognitive Impairment Associated With Schizophrenia: A Review of Registered Clinical Trials

open access: yesActa Psychiatrica Scandinavica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Schizophrenia is characterized by positive, negative, and cognitive symptoms. Current pharmacological treatments often fail to address cognitive deficits. In this review of clinical trials, we aim to identify studies that explore neurobiological (non‐psychological) strategies to address Cognitive Impairment Associated with ...
