Stereoselective Biotransformation: Transfer of Learning to Advance Drug Metabolism and Biocatalysis

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Understanding stereoselective biotransformations has implications for predicting drug disposition and response and may also inspire novel biocatalytic and biomimetic strategies to address challenges in metabolite and API synthesis. ABSTRACT Chirality is an important determinant of drug action, as enantiomers can exhibit markedly different ...

Sex as a biological variable in nonclinical studies: Bridging scientific rigor, animal welfare, and regulatory expectations

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sex as a biological variable (SABV) is a critical determinant of pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and toxicity in nonclinical studies. This review highlights how inappropriate neglect of sex differences compromises animal welfare, scientific reproducibility, and regulatory compliance.

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

A novel mouse model of endometriosis: Simulating the recurrent hemorrhagic microenvironment of clinical lesions

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
To address the limitations of existing models, this study innovatively established a mouse model of endometriosis (EMs) capable of mimicking cyclic bleeding. Our results confirmed that this model recapitulates the complete pathological progression from ectopic lesion establishment to systemic responses, exhibiting superior clinical relevance compared ...

Core promoter short tandem repeats as evolutionary switch codes for primate speciation [PDF]

, 2015
Alteration in gene expression levels underlies many of the phenotypic differences across species. Because of their highly mutable nature, proximity to the +1 transcription start site (TSS), and the emerging evidence of functional impact on gene ...

Stem cell–based therapies for type 1 diabetes: Progress in differentiation, clinical translation, and immune protection

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Directed differentiation of pluripotent stem cells into functional pancreatic β cells have emerged as a promising strategy for the radical treatment of type 1 diabetes, with preclinical and early clinical evidence demonstrating reversal of hyperglycemia and insulin independence.

Advances and perspectives in animal models of human hepatitis A virus

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Following HAV infection, humans, non‐human primates, and Ifnar1−/− mice develop characteristic manifestations of hepatitis A, including fecal viral shedding, elevated serum ALT levels, and inflammatory cell infiltration in the liver. In contrast, HAV‐infected human liver chimeric mice exhibit fecal viral shedding but do not develop clinical features of

Dose‐dependent pathogenicity and inflammatory imbalance in severely immunodeficient mice infected with mpox virus

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study establishes an NPG (NOD.Cg‐Prkdcscid Il2rgtm1/Vst) mouse model for severe monkeypox virus infection in immunocompromised hosts, demonstrating dose‐dependent disease severity and revealing that unbalanced pro‐inflammatory cytokine release drives pathogenesis, providing insights for therapeutic interventions. Abstract The global spread of mpox

Histiocytic Sarcoma in a Captive Hybrid Orangutan (Pongo sp.): Morphological and Immunohistochemical Features

Animals
Histiocytic sarcoma (HS), an infrequent highly aggressive hematopoietic tumor, has been observed in diverse animal species, with isolated occurrences in non-human primates.
