Extracellular Vesicles‐Based Biological Macromolecule Delivery Systems: Biogenesis, Characterization, and Emerging Clinical Applications

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale membrane‐bound structures that play a pivotal role in intercellular communication by transporting bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and organelles, between cells. Originating from the endosomal pathway, EVs reflect the physiological and pathological status of their parent

An Ocular Surface‐Targeting Nucleic Acid Hydrogel for Efficient Dry Eye Disease Treatment

Exploration, EarlyView.
A self‐assembled nucleic acid hydrogel modified with mucin‐1 (MUC1) aptamer is developed, which can actively target the mucin layer on the ocular surface and significantly extend its retention time after distillation. Inside the hydrogel, therapeutic siRNA is embedded and can effectively silence the inflammation gene expression, subsequently restoring ...

Longitudinal Swallowing and Salivary Changes With CLR 131 and Re‐Irradiation in Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Patients with recurrent head and neck cancer (HNC) often present with severe, persistent dysphagia and xerostomia following prior chemoradiation. Although swallowing impairments and salivary dysfunction have been reported in this population, prior longitudinal studies have not examined changes in salivary composition or how these ...

Efficacy of Cevimeline on Xerostomia in Sjögren's Syndrome Patients: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis of Randomized Clinical Trials

Current Therapeutic Research
Background: Xerostomia, or dry mouth, is a common and debilitating symptom in patients with Sjögren's syndrome, affecting their quality of life. Although Cevimeline, a muscarinic agonist, has been investigated as a potential treatment, its efficacy and ...

Gene expression signatures from single‐cell transcriptomics predict Sjögren's syndrome

iMetaOmics, EarlyView.
A machine learning‐based 12‐gene signature (SjS.Sig) was developed from scRNA‐seq data of PBMCs from Sjögren's syndrome patients. The model was validated using bulk RNA‐seq datasets and further confirmed through flow cytometry and qPCR analysis in an independent clinical cohort, demonstrating robust diagnostic potential.

A Refractory Leg Skin Ulcer Associated With Multiple Myeloma Successfully Treated With Plasma Exchange, Lenalidomide, and Dexamethasone

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multiple myeloma (MM) is a malignant plasma cell disorder that primarily presents with CRAB symptoms (calcium elevation, renal failure, anemia, and bone abnormalities). In rare cases, MM manifests with systemic complications like skin ulcers, which present management challenges. Here, we report a 78‐year‐old Japanese man with MM and refractory
