Article Synopsis
  • The American Academy of Dermatology (AAD) has created the Good Skin Knowledge (GSK) curriculum for children aged 8-13 to educate them about skin care and dermatologic conditions.
  • A pre- and post-training survey was developed to measure the effectiveness of the GSK program in boosting participants' confidence and understanding of skin care concepts.
  • Results showed a significant increase in confidence and knowledge, with at least two-thirds of participants gaining a better understanding of skin layers, the role of dermatologists, and acne causes.

Spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) is a non-receptor cytoplasmic kinase. Due to its pivotal role in B cell receptor and Fc-receptor signalling, inhibition of SYK has been a target of interest in a variety of diseases. Herein, we report the use of structure-based drug design to discover a series of potent macrocyclic inhibitors of SYK, with excellent kinome selectivity and in vitro metabolic stability.

Article Synopsis
  • The study focused on creating co-delivery systems using paclitaxel and a prodrug of etoposide, utilizing human serum albumin (HSA) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide) nanoparticles.
  • The nanoparticles were analyzed for various properties and demonstrated sizes of 90-150 nm, showing effective cytotoxicity against glioma cells, particularly Neuro2A cells.
  • The results indicated a synergistic effect of the drug combinations, suggesting these delivery systems could enhance chemotherapy treatments for brain tumors, marking a novel approach using HSA-based formulations.
