Magnetically Guided Macrophage Immunobots Coordinate Iron‐Metabolic Cascades and Immunogenic Ferroptosis for Tumor Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetically guided macrophage immunobots integrate active tumor targeting with immunometabolic therapy. After systemic administration, magnetic actuation enhances immunobot retention and tumor penetration, while LPS‐functionalized FePt microrollers sustain M1‐like polarization through inflammatory and iron‐amplified oxidative signaling and trigger ...

Chrysanthemum Morifolium–Derived Nanovesicles Reduce Lactate‐Associated Histone Lactylation and Modulate Microglia‐Mediated Neuroinflammation in Sepsis‐Associated Encephalopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
When used to treat sepsis‐associated encephalopathy, Chrysanthemum morifolium–derived nanovesicles can inhibit the H3K18la/NF‐κB axis to regulate microglia‐mediated neuroinflammation. ABSTRACT Sepsis‐associated encephalopathy (SAE)—a complication of the central nervous system in patients with sepsis—markedly diminishes cognitive functions and is linked

Dexmedetomidine infusions improve cardiovascular and renal function in anaesthetised, experimentally endotoxaemic horses

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dexmedetomidine infusions are beneficial in anaesthetised endotoxaemic horses when administered concurrent to endotoxin, but post‐conditioning effects are unknown. Objectives To evaluate whether a dexmedetomidine infusion is beneficial in horses administered Escherichia coli O55:B5 lipopolysaccharides (LPS) endotoxin prior to ...

Androgens Modulate Tumor–Immune Interactions in Testicular Germ Cell Tumors

Andrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The majority of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are derived from the germ cell neoplasia in situ and arise after puberty in the local presence of high levels of testosterone. The seminoma subtype features a rich inflammatory infiltrate which impacts tumor progression but the role of testosterone in shaping tumor–immune ...
