Clinical Impact of MGMT Promoter Methylation in IDH‐Mutant Gliomas: Influence of Threshold Selection and Clinical Confounding

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The clinical relevance of MGMT promoter methylation in IDH‐mutant gliomas remains controversial in the era of molecular classification. We aimed to systematically evaluate its clinical relevance by integrating quantitative assessment, cutoff exploration, and adjustment for clinical confounding.

Engineered Microvascular Model of the Blood–Brain–Tumor Barrier Reveals Endothelial Remodeling in Diffuse Midline Glioma

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We developed a patient‐derived, functional microfluidic model of the diffuse midline glioma (DMG) blood–brain–tumor barrier (BBTB) comprised of endothelial cells, astrocytes, pericytes, and tumor cells. The system forms perfusable microvasculature, reveals the BBTB retains vascular integrity, identifies DMG‐specific transcriptomic changes distinct from

Tumor‐Targeted Hyaluronic Acid/Tannic Acid‐Engineered Oxygen Nanogenerators With IR780 Payloads Enable Dual‐Mode Glutathione Depletion and Effective Singlet Oxygen Generation for Melanoma Treatment

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hyaluronic acid/tannic acid‐engineered Prussian blue oxygen nanogenerator loaded with IR780 is developed to enhance melanoma phototherapy. By integrating tumor targeting, oxygen self‐supply, and dual‐mode glutathione depletion, the nanoplatform effectively overcomes hypoxia and antioxidant defenses, potentiating synergistic photothermal/photodynamic ...

Biphasic Co‐Delivery of Curcumin and 5‐FU using 3D‐Printed Dissolving Microneedles for Skin Cancer Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using pixel‐aware digital light processing, the authors created high‐resolution, dissolvable microneedles from a PEGDA/VP matrix. These microneedles encapsulate curcumin and 5‐fluorouracil and dissolve in the skin, co‐delivering drugs directly to tumours.
