Portable devices for periodic monitoring of bioelectrical impedance along meridian pathways in healthy individuals.

Objective: This study aims to investigate the monthly variation patterns of bioelectrical impedance (BEI) along 24 meridian pathways in healthy individuals.

Methods: A cohort of 684 healthy middle-aged participants from North China was enrolled between July 1, 2017, and September 5, 2020. BEI measurements were consistently recorded along the 24 meridian pathways over the study period.

Transient chemical-mediated epigenetic modulation confers unrestricted lineage potential on human primed pluripotent stem cells.

Human primed pluripotent stem cells are capable of generating all the embryonic lineages. However, their extraembryonic trophectoderm potentials are limited. It remains unclear how to expand their developmental potential to trophectoderm lineages.

Intratumoral oncolytic virus OH2 injection in patients with locally advanced or metastatic sarcoma: a phase 1/2 trial.

Background: Intratumoral oncolytic herpes simplex virus 2-GM CSF (OH2) injection has shown safety and antitumor efficacy in patients with solid tumors. Here, we examined the safety and efficacy of OH2 as a single agent or in combination with HX008, an NMPA-approved PD-1 inhibitor, in locally advanced or metastatic sarcoma patients.

Methods: This multicenter, phase 1/2 trial enrolled patients with injectable sarcoma lesions, who had failed at least 1 or more lines of standard treatment.

Light-activated photosensitizer/quercetin co-loaded extracellular vesicles for precise oral squamous cell carcinoma therapy.

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common subtype of head and neck malignancies, characterized by a five-year survival rate that remains persistently below 50%, indicative of limited progress in therapeutic interventions. There is an urgent imperative to develop innovative therapeutic strategies, warranting the investigation of advanced treatment modalities. Nanocarriers offer a promising avenue by significantly enhancing drug properties and pharmacokinetics.
