In recent years, the significant role of the human gut microbiota (HGM) in the metabolism of drugs and nutrients has gradually been recognized. The gut microbiota not only affects the bioavailability of orally administered drugs but also participates in the biotransformation of drugs and bioactive molecules through its metabolic enzymes, thereby in...

Study on Connexin43-Mediated Temozolomide Resistance in Glioma through Activation of the E2F1/ERCC1 Axis Academic Background Glioma is the most common and fatal tumor of the central nervous system, with temozolomide (TMZ) being the standard treatment. However, TMZ therapy often leads to tumor recurrence and drug resistance, severely limiting its ef...

International Multicenter Study Reveals Insufficient Antifungal Dosing in Critically Ill Patients Academic Background Invasive fungal infections are common and serious nosocomial infections, particularly among patients in the intensive care unit (ICU), where they are associated with high morbidity and mortality rates. Timely and appropriate antifun...

Development and Validation of a Time-Varying Correction Factor for QT Interval Assessment in Drug-Resistant Tuberculosis Patients Academic Background and Research Motivation During the treatment of active tuberculosis (Tuberculosis, TB), patients often experience tachycardia (Tachycardia), which typically diminishes as they recover. Elevated heart ...

Research and Development of a Novel PI3Kα Inhibitor: Molecular Hybridization Technology Leads to a Breakthrough in Lung Cancer Treatment Academic Background Cancer, particularly non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), is the second leading cause of death worldwide.

Targeted Drug Delivery Using Self-Unrolling Sheets in Magnetically Actuated Capsules Background Gastrointestinal (GI) diseases, such as inflammatory bowel disease, GI bleeding, and cancer, are significant global health issues. Traditional treatment methods, such as endoscopy and oral medications, though effective to some extent, have many limitatio...

A Novel Rectal Foam Formulation for the Treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease In recent years, the incidence of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), characterized by mucosal damage, chronic inflammation, and recurrent episodes, has been steadily rising, yet ideal therapeutic solutions remain elusive. Researchers have identified a 33-amino acid pepti...

A Novel Study on Multifunctional Hydrogels for Promoting Infected Wound Healing In the current clinical setting, infected wounds, especially those caused by antibiotic-resistant pathogens, have become a major challenge. These chronic or hard-to-heal wounds often suffer from delayed healing processes due to excessive inflammation, bacterial biofilm ...

Exploration of a Novel Pulmonary Anti-SARS-CoV-2 Therapy Based on MIL-100(Fe) In recent years, global public health has faced numerous severe challenges, particularly since 2019 with the outbreak of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus pandemic. The high transmission rate and persistence of the virus have exposed bottlenecks in current prevention and treatme...

Breakthrough Research on Micro-Scale Exploration of Thrombolysis Kinetics Research Background and Problem Venous thromboembolism (VTE), a severe health condition, causes approximately 500,000 deaths annually in the United States alone. The occurrence of VTE is closely related to the formation and resistance to dissolution of thrombi in veins, commo...
