Dodecyl creatine ester, a promising treatment to deliver creatine to neurons, achieves pharmacology efficacy in creatine transporter deficiency.

Dodecyl creatine ester (DCE) is a creatine prodrug currently developed for brain diseases, including creatine transporter deficiency (CTD), an incurable rare genetic disease. A dual strategy combining a prodrug to bypass the non-functional creatine transporter and its delivery via the nose-to-brain pathway has been proposed to replenish creatine levels in cerebral cells, particularly in neurons of CTD patients. In vitro and in vivo studies in various animal models, including wild-type non-human primates and creatine transporter deficient mice, show that formulated DCE, when administered intranasally, achieves significant cerebral distribution up to the target cells, the neurons, and modulates the expression of neuronal markers related to cognitive function at doses intended for patients.

A cancer immunoprofiling strategy using mass spectrometry coupled with bioorthogonal cleavage.

The accurate quantification of biomarkers is paramount in modern medicine, particularly in cancer where precise diagnosis is imperative for targeted therapy selection. In this paper we described a multiplexed analysis diagnostic approach based on cleavable MS-tagged antibodies. The technology uses MS-tag isotopologues and the sydnonimine-cyclooctyne click-and-release bioorthogonal reaction.

[Evaluation of a self-administration of medication practice in a rehabilitation unit].

Objectives: Self-administration consists in the administration of medications by the patient himself during his hospitalization. The order of October 10, 2022 (Arrêté du 10 octobre 2022 modifiant l'arrêté du 6 avril 2011) modified the April 6, 2011 regulation to allow and regulate self-administration practices in hospital units. This evolution opens new perspectives for patient autonomy.

Intergenerational effects on fertility in male and female mice after chronic exposure to environmental doses of NSAIDs and 17α-ethinylestradiol mixtures.

Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and 17α-ethinylestradiol (EE2) are extensively used in human and veterinary medicine. Due to their partial removal by wastewater treatment plants, they are frequent environmental contaminants, particularly in drinking water. Here, we investigated the adverse outcomes of chronic exposure to mixtures of NSAIDs (ibuprofen, 2hydroxy-ibuprofen, diclofenac) and EE2 at two environmentally relevant doses in drinking water, on the reproductive organ development and fertility in F1-exposed male and female mice and in their F2 offspring.
