Hyaluronic acid, a biocompatible polymer, holds significant potential for drug delivery applications. Its variable degree of protonation, which entails tunable physical properties, makes it an ideal candidate for developing pH-sensitive hydrogels. Like other smart drug delivery systems, pH-responsive hydrogels can enhance medical treatment and expedite the healing process.

Article Synopsis
  • Clinical gait analysis (CGA) is essential for assessing gait patterns and planning interventions, but there are currently no international standards, leading to inconsistencies in practices across different countries.
  • A survey conducted by the European Society for Movement Analysis in Adults and Children (ESMAC) evaluated 97 gait laboratories across 16 European countries, focusing on equipment and methods used in CGA.
  • Results showed a general agreement on data collection methods and the use of the Conventional Gait Model, but highlighted differences in training and documentation practices, paving the way for standardized guidelines in the future.

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) are a heterogeneous cell population of incompletely differentiated immune cells. They are known to suppress T cell activity and are implicated in multiple chronic diseases, which make them an attractive cell population for drug discovery. Here, we characterized the baseline proteomes and phospho-proteomes of mouse MDSC differentiated from a progenitor cell line to a depth of 7000 proteins and phosphorylation sites.
