Radionuclide therapy is expected to be a powerful tool for glioma treatment. Here, we introduce a novel nuclear nanomedicine based on polydopamine (PDA), incorporating fibroblast activation protein inhibitor (FAPI) and macrocyclic chelator (DOTA) for specific cancer targeting and 177Lu labeling. The synthesized nanoradiopharmaceutical, 177Lu-DOTA-PEG-PDA-FAPI, exhibits good stability in serum, saline and PBS over 5 days.

Deniable ring signatures find applications in various scenarios where balancing privacy protection with supervised oversight is crucial. In this work, we present a novel deniable ring signature scheme based on the ISRSAC digital signature, tailored for environments with regulatory requirements, empowering regulators to hold malicious signers accountable.

Herein, silicalite-1 zeolite with entrapped Pt nanoclusters is skillfully post-oxidized at an appropriate temperature, building highly active Pt─O sites on the nanoclusters to achieve efficient oxidation of hydrogen isotopes at low temperatures. The designed Pt─O sites can directly participate in the oxidation reaction of hydrogen isotopes.

The porous structure of poly-L-cys film can regulate the generation of copper nanoclusters (Cu NCs) in the pores, effectively limiting the migration and aggregation of nanopaticles. In addition, poly-L-cys film also acted as co-reactant promoters, promoting electron transfer and effectively enhancing ECL signal of Cu NCs.

Methods: We utilized a mouse model of middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) and treated mice with umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (uc-MSCs) derived exosomes. Proteomic analysis identified AAK1(AP2 associated kinase 1) as a key target protein.
Purpose: Clarification of cisplatin resistance may provide new targets for therapy in cisplatin resistant ovarian cancer. The current study aims to explore involvement of isoforms of AU-rich element RNA-binding protein 1 (AUF1) in cisplatin resistance in ovarian cancer.
Methods: The cancer stem cell-like features were analyzed using colony formation assay, tumor sphere formation assay and nude mouse xenograft experiments.
