Senkyunolide I Inhibits mtDNA‐cGAS‐STING Signaling in Macrophages via Targeting VDAC1 Oligomerization to Attenuate Ulcerative Colitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In macrophages, senkyunolide I (SEI) directly targets the K12 residue of VDAC1 to inhibit its stress‐induced oligomerization, a critical upstream event that effectively prevents mitochondrial DNA release and subsequent cGAS‐STING pathway activation.

The CXCL5/CXCR2 Axis Attenuates Ferroptosis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma Through the Positive Feedback Loop Between PTGS2 Transcriptional Activation and Neutrophil Recruitment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The CXCL5/CXCR2 axis directly inhibits ferroptosis in ICC cells by activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 pathway. Meanwhile, the CXCL5/CXCR2 axis recruits N2 TANs, and the activated PTGS2 promotes the secretion of TNF‐α from the recruited N2 TANs via the CCL2/CCL7/CCR2 pathway, thereby activating the NF‐κB/PTGS2 axis and forming a positive feedback loop, which ...

Single‐Dose TACE‐Like Injection of Sustained‐Release Panobinostat/IL‐12 Polymeric Microparticles is Effective in Preclinical Liver Cancer Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel PLGA/PBAE polymer microparticle platform revolutionizes intermediate‐stage liver cancer treatment by co‐delivering panobinostat and IL‐12 via a single TACE‐like injection. This sustained‐release system overcomes tumor immunosuppression, triggers robust innate and adaptive immune responses, and establishes tertiary lymphoid structures ...

Intraperitoneal insulin infusion: on the way to the artificial pancreas

Сахарный диабет, 2015
Creating an "artificial pancreas" (a "closed loop" insulin pump, with self-adjusting insulin abilities, based on real time continuous glucose monitoring data) – is one of the most actual medical challenges of modern engineering and cybernetics.Artificial

Diagnostic Accuracy of Size‐Based Preoperative CT Assessment for Predicting Lymph Node Metastasis in Colon Cancer: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Preoperative CT based on lymph node size shows moderate accuracy for detecting nodal metastasis in colon cancer. In this meta‐analysis of 29 studies (5,634 patients), pooled sensitivity and specificity were 0.69 and 0.66. Size‐based CT alone has limited value for clinical decision‐making.

Conventional insulin pump therapy in two neonatal diabetes patients harboring the homozygous PTF1A enhancer mutation: Need for a novel approach for the management of neonatal diabetes

The Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2017
The enhancer of PTF1A mutation causes developmental defects of the pancreas. This condition can result in insulin-requiring diabetes and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency.

Artificial Intelligence–Based Surgical Phase Analysis Enables Objective Assessment of Surgeon Skill in Robotic Distal Gastrectomy: A Multicenter Study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aim Artificial intelligence (AI)–based surgical video analysis can automate time‐consuming manual assessments and enable objective characterization of surgical workflows. We aimed to construct a large, multicenter, fully annotated dataset of robotic distal gastrectomy (RDG) videos and evaluate the feasibility and performance of an AI model for
