Exploration and verification of the therapeutic mechanism of shenfu injection in sepsis-induced myocardial injury.

Background: Shenfu injection (SFI), derived from a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) prescription, is an effective drug for the treatment of sepsis-induced myocardial injury (SIMI) with good efficacy, but its exact therapeutic mechanism remains unclear.

Methods: SwissTargetPrediction and GeneCards database were used to obtain relevant targets for SFI and SIMI. STRING 11.

Synthesis, Preclinical Evaluation, and First-in-Human Assessment of ICG-PSMA-D5: A PSMA-Targeted Probe for Fluorescence-Guided Surgery of Prostate Cancer.

Precise surgical resection of prostate cancer (PCa) is a significant clinical challenge due to the impact of positive surgical margins on postoperative outcomes. Fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS) enables real-time tumor visualization using fluorescent probes. In this study, we synthesized and evaluated an indocyanine green (ICG)-based PSMA-targeted near-infrared probe, , for intraoperative imaging of PCa lesions.

Peptide-drug conjugates repolarize glioblastoma-associated macrophages to resensitize chemo-immunotherapy of glioblastoma.

The prevalent tumor-supporting glioblastoma-associated macrophages (GAMs) promote glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) progression and resistance to multiple therapies. Repolarizing GAMs from tumor-supporting to tumor-inhibiting phenotype may troubleshoot. However, sufficient accumulation of drugs at the GBM site is restricted by blood-brain barrier (BBB).

H3K14la drives endothelial dysfunction in sepsis-induced ARDS by promoting SLC40A1/transferrin-mediated ferroptosis.

Pulmonary endothelial cell (EC) activation is a key factor in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). In sepsis, increased glycolysis leads to lactate buildup, which induces lysine lactylation (Kla) on histones and other proteins. However, the role of protein lactylation in EC dysfunction during sepsis-induced ARDS remains unclear.

Clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of 72 cases of intestinal and urinary tract deep infiltrating endometriosis.

The diagnosis and treatment of intestinal and urinary tract deep infiltrating endometriosis (DIE) remain challenging due to its multiple lesions and nonspecific symptoms and signs. This study retrospectively analyzed 72 cases of intestinal and urinary tract DIE, including the clinical characteristics, diagnosis, and treatment outcomes. Among these cases, 11 presented without clinical symptoms, while 61 exhibited obvious clinical symptoms, primarily dysmenorrhea (58.
