Consequences and Mechanisms of Noise‐Induced Cochlear Synaptopathy and Hidden Hearing Loss, With Focuses on Signal Perception in Noise and Temporal Processing

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Noise‐induced synaptopathy (NIS) is largely reversible due to self‐repair. NIS and noise‐induced hidden hearing loss are two concepts with similarities and differences. The major hearing deficits in NIHHL are temporal processing disorders. The translation of animal data in NIS studies to humans is hindered by many factors.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase as a Novel Therapeutic Target in Oncology

Frontiers in Oncology, 2013
Current drug development in oncology is non-selective as it typically focuses on pathways essential for the survival of all dividing cells. The unique metabolic profile of cancer, which is characterized by increased glycolysis and suppressed ...

Failures to further developing orphan medicinal products after designation granted in Europe: an analysis of marketing authorisation failures and abandoned drugs [PDF]

BMJ Open, 2017
ObjectivesThe research and development process in the field of rare diseases is characterised by many well-known difficulties, and a large percentage of orphan medicinal products do not reach the marketing approval.This work aims at identifying orphan medicinal products that failed the developmental process and investigating reasons for and possible ...

Mesenchymal Stromal Cell Secretome and Its Key Bioactive Metabolites Induce Long‐Term Neuroprotection After Traumatic Brain Injury in Mice

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Pischiutta F and coworkers identify prostaglandins and kynurenine as key mediators of the mesenchymal stromal cells‐derived secretome's neuroprotective effects. A synthetic cocktail composed of these factors promotes long‐term functional recovery, reduces brain structural damage, and modulates neuroinflammation after traumatic brain injury, supporting ...

Role of Nuclear Receptors in Controlling Erythropoiesis

International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Nuclear receptors (NRs), are a wide family of ligand-regulated transcription factors sharing a common modular structure composed by an N-terminal domain and a ligand-binding domain connected by a short hinge linker to a DNA-binding domain.

PTf‐SRiApt Targeting SCAF4‐POLR2A Interaction Suppresses Tumor Growth and Promotes Antitumor Immunity in Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A phosphorothioate‐modified aptamer PTf‐SRiApt capable of disrupting “undruggable” transcription factor SCAF4‐POLR2A interaction with high inhibitory activity and biological stability is presented here. Through this inhibition, PTf‐SRiApt successfully arrested cell cycle progression, induced cell death, and elevated immune recruitment in SCAF4‐POLR2A ...

Sleep Deprivation Activates a Conserved Lactate‐H3K18la‐RORα Axis Driving Neutrophilic Inflammation Across Species

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sleep deprivation triggers systemic immune activation characterized by neutrophil accumulation and cytokine release. This study reveals a conserved metabolic‒epigenetic mechanism whereby lactate‐induced H3K18 lactylation upregulates RORα expression, promoting neutrophilic inflammation.

YTHDC1 Is Essential for Postnatal Liver Development and Homeostasis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies YTHDC1 as a key regulator of postnatal liver development and disease. Hepatocyte‐specific deletion of Ythdc1 impairs hepatocyte maturation, causing liver injury, contributing to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and hepatocellular carcinoma.

The work, goals, challenges, achievements, and recommendations of orphan medicinal product organizations in India: an interview-based study

Orphanet Journal of Rare Diseases, 2019
Background Orphan medicinal products (OMPs) are intended for the diagnosis, prevention, management or treatment of rare diseases (RDs). Each RD affects only a small fraction of the population, and therefore, historically, industry hesitated to undertake ...
