Arginase 1 does not affect RNA m6A methylation in mouse fetal lung.

Background: Arginase 1 (Arg1) encodes a key enzyme that catalyzes the metabolism of arginine to ornithine and urea. In our recent study, we found that knockdown of Arg1 in the lungs of fetal mice induces apoptosis of epithelial cells and dramatically delays initiation of labor. As the most abundant internal mRNA modification, N -methyladenosine (m A) has been found to play important roles in lung development and cellular differentiation.

Evaluation of glycosylated docetaxel-encapsulated liposomes prepared by remote loading under solubility gradient.

Docetaxel comprises one of the most effective anti-cancer drugs despite of serious side effects. Liposomes encapsulation is practically feasible to deliver the drug. However, due to the significant hydrophobicity, docetaxel will be integrated into the lipid bilayer resulting in poor encapsulation capacity.
