Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

The expression of the ACTH receptor

Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2000
Adrenal glucocorticoid secretion is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) acting through a specific cell membrane receptor (ACTH-R). The ACTH-R is a member of the G protein superfamily-coupled receptors and belongs to the subfamily of ...

Mechanism of glucocorticoid receptor down-regulation by glucocorticoids.

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1988
The effect of glucocorticoids on the regulation of glucocorticoid receptor mRNA was studied in two different cell lines, human IM-9 lymphocytes and rat pancreatic acinar AR42J cells. Using a glucocorticoid receptor cDNA probe, glucocorticoid receptor mRNA was examined by Northern blot hybridization and quantitated by slot-blot hybridization.

Differences in DNA Binding Characteristics of the Androgen and Glucocorticoid Receptors Can Determine Hormone-specific Responses*

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2000
The basis for specificity of gene regulation by steroid hormone receptors remains an important problem in the study of steroid hormone action. One possible mechanism for steroid specificity is the difference in DNA binding characteristics of the ...

Multiomics Analyses Reveal an Essential Role of Tryptophan in Treatment of csDMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease characterized by joint inflammation. Approximately 50% of patients show insufficient response to traditional synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs. This study aims to elucidate differential molecular profiles of the mechanisms underlying drug responses through multi‐omics strategy.

Life Factors and Melanoma: From the Macroscopic State to the Molecular Mechanism

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Melanoma, an aggressive skin cancer, arises from dynamic interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review explores how age, gender, obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol, UV exposure, circadian rhythms, and medications influence melanoma risk and progression.

Corticosterone Contributes to Context‐Triggered Retrieval of Morphine Withdrawal Memories by Acting on Basolateral Amygdala Neurons Projecting to Nucleus Accumbens Core

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Context associated with morphine withdrawal elicits an increase in serum corticosterone levels. Corticosterone participates in CTR‐MWM by acting on MR, but not GR, in the BLA. MR in BLA→NAcC neurons mediates CTR‐MWM. MR increases presynaptic glutamate release and meanwhile participates in D1 receptor‐induced increases in presynaptic glutamate release ...

Deciphering the Role and Mechanism of Decidual Monocyte‐Derived Macrophage Infiltration in Obstetric Antiphospholipid Syndrome at Single‐Cell Resolution

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study uncovers a novel mechanism and therapeutic targets in obstetric antiphospholipid syndrome (OAPS). Antiphospholipid antibody/ß2‐glycoprotein I complex boosts CCL2 and TNF‐α expression in decidual macrophages via TLR4‐NF‐κB. CCL2 accumulates on endothelial surfaces via ACKR1, recruiting monocyte‐derived CCR2+ macrophages, driving inflammation,

Tackling Allergic Airway Inflammation with Organic Sheet‐Like Nanoplatforms by Targeted Elimination of Epithelial Small Extracellular Vesicles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this work, “inorganic‐free” nanosheets, named PNSE are developed using template‐based synthesis technology. The functionalized organic nanosheets exhibit low cytotoxicity, mild protein adsorption, and potent binding efficacy to epithelial sEVs.
