The Long Pentraxin PTX3 Is an Endogenous Inhibitor of Hyperoxaluria-Related Nephrocalcinosis and Chronic Kidney Disease

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
The long pentraxin 3 (PTX3) exerts a variety of regulatory functions in acute and chronic tissue inflammation. In particular, PTX3 acts as an opsonin for a variety of pathogens and endogenous particles.

Vitamin‐Responsive Disorders: From Molecular Basis to Clinical Presentation and Therapy

Journal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 49, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Vitamin‐dependent cofactors are essential for numerous metabolic reactions, and defects affecting their uptake, conversion, utilisation, or regeneration constitute a heterogeneous group of inherited metabolic disorders (IMDs). Although dietary vitamin intake is sufficient to sustain coenzyme synthesis in healthy individuals, it is insufficient

Probiotics and Their Functional Role in Mitigating Antinutrient Effects In Vivo—A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 4, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Antinutrients like phytic acid and oxalates reduce mineral bioavailability by forming insoluble complexes with iron, zinc, and calcium. Probiotic supplementation may counteract these effects through enzymatic activity (e.g., phytase, oxalate decarboxylase) and microbiota modulation. This PRISMA‐based meta‐analysis evaluated 27 in vivo studies (

More Than a Question of Correlation: Characterization of the Evidentiary Basis for Biomarker Surrogates Used in European Marketing Authorizations

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 6, Page 1522-1536, June 2026.
Traditionally, clinical outcomes measuring how a patient feels, functions, or survives are preferred endpoints in clinical trials; however, some may take a long time to manifest in slowly developing diseases. Biomarkers, if properly validated, can serve as surrogate endpoints, acting as substitutes for clinical outcomes.

Oxalate Nephropathy in a Patient With Chronic Pancreatitis and Recent Surgery: A Clinical Conundrum

Kidney Medicine
Calcium oxalate nephropathy is a rare condition with both primary and secondary causes. Primary hyperoxaluria, an inherited disorder, leads to liver oxalate overproduction, whereas secondary hyperoxaluria, or enteric hyperoxaluria, may be multifactorial ...

Tipping point and molecular mechanism of the transformation of lung adenocarcinoma in situ to invasive adenocarcinoma: A study based on dynamic network markers in systems biology

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 3, June 2026.
A dynamic network biomarker (DNBs) linking the transformation from lung AIS to IAC. Key differential genes and pathways were identified, establishing MIA as the critical tipping point for transformation. Abstract Background Lung adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS), characterised by ground‐glass nodules as observed in computed tomography imaging, generally ...
