Solar-converting nanosystems using self-renewing biomaterial resources carry great potential for developing sustainable technologies to ameliorate climate change and minimize reliance on fossil fuels. By mimicking natural photosynthesis, diverse proof-of-concept biosolar systems have been used to produce green electricity, fuels and chemicals. Efforts so far have focused on optimizing light harvesting, biocatalyst loading and electron transfer (ET), however, the long-term performance of best-performing systems remains a major challenge due to the intensive use of diffusive, toxic mediators.

Article Synopsis
  • CTNNB1 mutations in prostate cancer are uncommon but can lead to aggressive forms of the disease, characterized by the overactivation of the Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathway, which is linked to cancer progression and resistance to treatments.
  • A specific case of a patient with CTNNB1-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) was studied, revealing unusual cancer characteristics and generating patient-derived organoids and xenografts for further analysis.
  • Results showed that the cancer lacked typical prostate cancer markers and was resistant to standard therapies, indicating the need for more targeted research and treatment strategies for such rare cancer mutations.

Tocilizumab prevents clinical worsening of chronic antibody-mediated rejection (CAMR) of kidney transplant recipients. Optimization of this treatment is necessary. We identified the determinants of early tocilizumab exposure (within the first three months) and investigated the relationship between early plasma tocilizumab exposure and graft function.
