Protein Corona Engineering of Lipid Nanoparticles Enables Efficient Functional Gene Silencing in the Liver

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
By shaping the protein corona, lipid composition directs LNP tropism and enables the preferential delivery of a TIMP1‐targeting siRNA to liver macrophages. In a murine model of primary biliary cholangitis, this strategy promoted macrophage reprogramming and attenuated liver fibrosis.

TIMP-3-induced apoptosis in hVSMCs is dependent on FAS, increases cellular FAS protein levels and induces DISC formation.

open access: yes, 2018
A. Western blots of hVSMCs (Cont), transduced with lentivirus carrying puromycin resistance alone (Puro), expressing non-targeting control shRNA (shCont), or shRNA targeting FAS (FAS-1, -3, -4). B.

Novel bi- and trifunctional inhibitors of tumor-associated proteolytic systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
Serine proteases, cysteine proteases, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are involved in cancer cell invasion and metastasis. Recently, a recombinant bifunctional inhibitor (chCysuPA(19-31)) directed against cysteine proteases and the urokinasetype ...

Biomarkers to predict outcomes in diabetic foot ulcers

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Studies attempting to predict the healing outcome of diabetic foot ulcers (DFUs) have investigated various biological materials and recovered molecules that may aid in discriminating wounds that will heal and those that will not heal. This graphical abstract captures the commonly studied classes of biomarkers in the context of DFUs.

Serum proteome profiling identifies novel and powerful markers of cystic fibrosis liver disease. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cystic Fibrosis associated liver disease (CFLD) develops in approximately 30% of CF patients. However, routine sensitive diagnostic tools for CFLD are lacking. Within this study, we aimed to identify new experimental biomarkers for the detection of CFLD.

Safety, Efficacy, and Mechanism of Action of Budesonide in Rhinitis and Rhinosinusitis: A Systematic Review

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Budesonide is a corticosteroid with unique pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties that has been a frontline treatment for patients with allergic rhinitis (AR) and chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) since the 1990s. As research on budesonide continues to produce new insights, our aim was to synthesize recent investigations and ...

Peripheral targets for neuropathic pain

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Neuropathic pain represents a significant clinical challenge, with still limited pharmacological approaches to symptomatic relief. This review focuses on molecular targets implicated in neuropathic pain, particularly those involved in peripheral mechanisms. Using the IUPHAR/BPS database of biological targets, their occurrence together with ‘neuropathic

Estrogen‐dependent gene regulation: Molecular basis of TIMP‐1 as a sex‐specific biomarker for acute lung injury

open access: yesPhysiological Reports
Increased circulating tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases‐1 (TIMP‐1) levels have been observed in patients with acute lung injury (ALI). However, the sex‐specific regulation of TIMP‐1 and the underlying molecular mechanisms have not been well ...

TIMP-3 increases FAS at the surface of hVSMCs at distinct regions.

open access: yes, 2018
A. Soluble FAS (pg ml-1) in the culture media of hVSMCs transduced with control (RAd60) or TIMP-3 (RAdT3)-expressing adenovirus at the time points indicated. Data are the mean ± SEM, n = 3.

Human Embryonic Stem Cell‐Derived Immunity‐And‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells Attenuate Pulmonary Fibrosis via MMP1‐Mediated Collagen Degradation

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Human embryonic stem cell‐derived Immunity‐and‐Matrix‐Regulatory Cells (IMRCs) effectively attenuate pulmonary fibrosis by secreting Matrix Metalloproteinase‐1 (MMP1), which directly degrades excess collagen I in the extracellular matrix. By directly degrading collagen I, IMRCs reverse ECM stiffness, suppress myofibroblast activation, and promote a ...
