The spread of multidrug-resistant mycobacterium strains requires the development of new approaches to combat diseases caused by these pathogens. For that, photodynamic inactivation (PDI) is a promising approach. In this study, a tricarbocyanine (TCC) is used for the first time as a near-infrared (740 nm) activatable PDI photosensitizer to kill mycobacteria with deep light penetration.

A new promising drug candidate DD217 has been proposed recently as a potent anticoagulant acting on factor Xa (fXa) target. It exhibits the lowest concentration of doubling the prothrombin time among the known anticoagulants. In order to explain the efficacy of DD217 in terms of molecular interactions with its target we studied the hypothesis of the tight binding mechanism by means of molecular dynamics simulations and statistical analysis of the trajectory.

Article Synopsis
  • This study investigates the relationship between C-reactive protein (CRP) levels and pain severity in patients following total knee arthroplasty, hypothesizing that higher CRP levels correlate with increased pain.
  • Researchers analyzed CRP levels and pain through a visual analog scale in 160 patients who underwent the surgery between 2017 and 2019, categorizing them based on different pain relief methods used post-operatively.
  • Results indicated a significant correlation between elevated CRP levels and worse pain experienced both shortly after surgery and on the first post-operative day, suggesting CRP may be a useful indicator of pain severity in these patients.

In aortic valve disease cases, prosthetic valves have been used for valve replacement, however, these prostheses have inherent problems, and their quality in some countries is lower comparing to new-generation models, causing shorter durability. Aortic valve neocuspidization (AVNeo) has emerged as an option, which can be applied to a wide spectrum of these diseases. Despite the promising results, this procedure is not widely spread among cardiac surgeons yet.

The complexity of lignin and hemicellulose segmentation has been known since the middle of the ninetieth century. Studies confirmed that all lignin units in coniferous species and 47-66% of lignin moieties in deciduous species are bound to hemicelluloses or cellulose molecules in lignin-carbohydrate complexes (LCC). Different types and proportions of lignin and polysaccharides present in biomass lead to the formation of LCC with a great variety of compositions and structures.
