3D Printing (3DP) has gained decent pace in the past decade in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields. The approval of 3D-printed medical devices has gained more attraction than that of 3D-printed drug products. However, concerns related to cost-effectiveness, efficacy, and large-scale manufacturi…
Gene editing
Mitochondrial dysfunction drives secondary injury in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH), yet its upstream regulatory mechanisms remain elusive. This study examines whether ICH-induced DNA methyltransferase 3 A (DNMT3A) activation triggers PGC-1α promoter hypermethylation, causing mitochondria…

Imaging and genomics in stroke.
2026-04-11
Imaging after ischemic and hemorrhagic stroke may allow measurement of key phenotypes of injury and recovery for which targeted therapies are still lacking. Such imaging endophenotypes provide quantifiable and heritable biomarkers that can represent mechanistic aspects of disease processes better th…
Immunotherapy
Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, yet many patients show non-sensitivity. Here, we collected treatment-naïve samples from 190 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) patients undergoing anti-programmed death 1 (PD1) immunotherapy for proteome, phosphoproteome, and immunohisto…
In KEYNOTE-859, pembrolizumab plus chemotherapy significantly improved overall survival (OS) versus placebo plus chemotherapy for participants with untreated locally advanced or metastatic HER2-negative gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma, with manageable safety. This post hoc analys…
Mitochondria
The pathways of programmed cell death (PCD), including apoptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis, are interconnected. They can be activated simultaneously within tissues or cell lines and are often associated with various diseases. Thus, identifying a common player and inhibitor targeting several PCD t…
