Self‐Propelled In Situ Polymerized Nanoparticles Activating the STING Pathway for Enhanced Bladder Cancer Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A self‐propelled nanomedicine delivery system forms DMCU nanoparticles in the bladder via in situ polymerization of dopamine hydrochloride, Mn2+, cGAMP, and urease. The urease‐driven propulsion enhances retention and drug delivery. These nanoparticles activate the STING pathway, stimulating dendritic cells and T cells to boost anti‐bladder cancer ...

Urinary tract infections: epidemiology, etiology, pathogenesis, risk factors, diagnosis (review)

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2016
Urinary tract infections are one of the most common inflammatory disorders of urinary tract that occurs in 40 % of all cases of nosocomial infections. This pathology more often occurs in women, 50 % of them have urinary tract infection at least once in a

Precision‐Guided Stealth Missiles in Biomedicine: Biological Carrier‐Mediated Nanomedicine Hitchhiking Strategy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Diagram illustrating the binding methods of NPs and biological barriers. The biological carrier‐mediated nanomedicine hitchhiking strategy (BCM‐NHS) utilizes two distinct techniques: the surface‐based “Backpack” method, which relies on ligand‐receptor binding, covalent conjugation, and non‐covalent binding, and the encapsulated “Trojan horse” approach,

Trypstatin as a Novel TMPRSS2 Inhibitor with Broad‐Spectrum Efficacy against Corona and Influenza Viruses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Trypstatin, a 61‐amino acid Kunitz‐type protease inhibitor derived from human Bikunin, potently inhibits TMPRSS2 and related proteases. It blocks spike‐ and hemagglutinin‐mediated entry of multiple respiratory viruses in vitro reduces SARS‐CoV‐2 replication in human airway cultures, and lowers viral load and symptoms in infected hamsters, demonstrating

Generation of induced pluripotent stem cell line, NCHi027-A, from a female child with Posterior Cloaca (Type B)

Stem Cell Research
Cloaca is an ultra-rare severe anorectal malformation in females where the gastrointestinal, genital, and urologic systems converge. Posterior Cloaca (Type B) is an extremely rare specific variant, where the urogenital sinus opens just anterior to the ...

Optimal duration of antimicrobial prophylaxis in patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy: A multicenter cohort study

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
Prolonged administration of antimicrobial prophylaxis might not be effective to prevent surgical site infections after distal pancreatectomy compared to intraoperative or up to 24‐h administration. Abstract Background Antimicrobial prophylaxis is routinely administered in patients undergoing distal pancreatectomy, with cephalosporins being the most ...

Generation of induced pluripotent stem cell line, NCHi028-A, from a male child with Prune Belly Syndrome

Stem Cell Research
Prune belly syndrome (PBS) is a rare, multi-system congenital myopathy mainly affecting males, whose genetic basis is still being explored. Phenotypically, its morbidity spans from mild to lethal, and PBS cases manifest three cardinal pathological ...

Reoperative pouch surgery for suspected Crohn's‐related complications aided by biologic coverage: Early experience from an inflammatory bowel disease center

Annals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This paper demonstrates that revisional/redo ileal pouch anal anastomosis (IPAA) surgery with concurrent biologic therapy provides a viable, stoma‐free alternative for patients with Crohn's disease‐like complications, showing a high functioning pouch rate and expanding options for managing pouch failure.
