Tackling cancer stemness with nanotechnology in the era of precision medicine

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Precise customization of nanoparticles (NPs) enables active targeting of cancer stem cells (CSCs), thereby improving drug delivery and therapeutic efficacy. NP‐based probing enhances CSC detection through imaging and liquid biopsy, whereas diverse therapeutic payloads improve therapeutic outcomes.

Visualizing sphingomyelin in the retina

Experimental Eye Research
Sphingomyelin (SM) is a major component of cellular membranes that is altered by retinal and optic nerve degenerations. However, our understanding of the influence of SM during degenerations is hampered by methodological limitations. Prior investigations have demonstrated the accumulation of SM to plasma membranes of cultured cells, using an enhanced ...

Secretopathies emerge as a new class of neurocristopathies

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Neural crest cells are a transient embryonic population of cells that give rise to a wide range of structures, including craniofacial cartilage and bone, peripheral neurons and glia, as well as components of the cardiac outflow tract, among others.

Decreased plasma phospholipid concentrations and increased acid sphingomyelinase activity are accurate biomarkers for community-acquired pneumonia

Journal of Translational Medicine, 2019
Background There continues to be a great need for better biomarkers and host-directed treatment targets for community-acquired pneumonia (CAP). Alterations in phospholipid metabolism may constitute a source of small molecule biomarkers for acute ...

Metabolic abnormalities and reprogramming in cats with naturally occurring hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1256-1270, April 2025.
Abstract Background and aims The heart is a metabolic organ rich in mitochondria. The failing heart reprograms to utilize different energy substrates, which increase its oxygen consumption. These adaptive changes contribute to increased oxidative stress.

Plasma sphingomyelins increase in pre-diabetic Korean men with abdominal obesity.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Abdominal or visceral obesity is a well-known risk factor for metabolic diseases. However, whether abdominal obesity significantly affects plasma lipid profile during the development of type 2 diabetes has not been fully elucidated.

The multiple hit model of infantile and epileptic spasms: The 2025 update

Epilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Infantile and epileptic spasms syndrome (IESS) is a developmental and epileptic encephalopathy manifesting with epileptic spasms and poor neurodevelopmental outcomes. There is an urgent need for the development of more effective and tolerated therapies.

ATPase activity of human ABCG1 is stimulated by cholesterol and sphingomyelin[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
ATP-binding cassette protein G1 (ABCG1) is important for the formation of HDL. However, the biochemical properties of ABCG1 have not been reported, and the mechanism of how ABCG1 is involved in HDL formation remains unclear. We established a procedure to

Precision Mapping of Retinal Disease: Identification of Differential Progression Trajectories via Imaging Phenomics

iMetaMed, EarlyView.
Applying single‐cell RNA‐seq techniques to large‐scale clinical phenotypic data enables the discovery of differential disease progression trajectories and the construction of data‐driven progression scores. These can then be integrated into precision medicine studies to investigate the drivers of patient‐specific disease outcomes. ABSTRACT We propose a
