Unlabelled: Radiometal-labeled monoclonal antibodies are retained longer in tumors than iodinated antibodies, leading to their increased use for radioimmunotherapy. Dissociation of radioiodine from the antibody during metabolism has been documented. We now report metabolites in the plasma of lymphoma patients given 111In- and 90Y-2-iminothiolane-2-[p-(bromoacetamido)benzyl]-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N",N"'-tetraacetic acid-Lym-1 (111In/90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1).
Methods: Nineteen patients with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) received 111In- and 90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1; 111In was used as a surrogate tracer for 90Y, which emits no gamma-photon. Plasma was obtained up to 7 d and analyzed by high-performance liquid chromatography to determine the fraction of radiolabel associated with monomeric antibody, metabolites, and complexed antibody. Planar images of conjugate views were acquired up to 7 d and used to quantitate 111In in organs and tumors.
Results: Metabolites and complexes were observed in the plasma of every patient who received 111In-2IT-BAD-Lym-1. At 3 d, the mean percentages of 111In in the patients' plasma in monomeric, metabolite, and complexed forms were 54%, 36%, and 10%, respectively. Metabolites of 90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1 were formed to a similar extent. In comparison, in groups of breast and prostate cancer patients who received the radioimmunoconjugate 111In-2IT-BAD-m170, 91% and 94% of 111In in the patients' plasma were in monomeric form, respectively. Metabolites and complexes of 111In-2IT-BAD-Lym-1 contributed a mean 10% of the total area under the time-activity curve (AUC) for blood. Little formation of metabolites and complexes occurred in vitro in NHL patient or volunteer plasma or in Raji cell culture. The clinical and in vitro data supported the processing of 111In/90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1 in the hepatocytes as the dominant mechanism for the production of metabolites.
Conclusion: Metabolites of 111In/90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1 accounted for 10% of blood AUC in patients. The therapeutic index was adversely affected by metabolism of 111In/90Y-2IT-BAD-Lym-1 to the extent that the tumor specificity of the radioactive metabolites was lost.

The glycocalyx is an essential structural and functional component of endothelial cells. Extensive hemodynamic changes cause endothelial glycocalyx disruption and vascular dysfunction, leading to multiple arterial and venous disorders. Chronic venous disease (CVD) is a common disorder of the lower extremities with major health and socio-economic implications, but complex pathophysiology.

Hyperoxaluria, including primary and secondary hyperoxaluria, is a disorder characterized by increased urinary oxalate excretion and could lead to recurrent calcium oxalate kidney stones, nephrocalcinosis and eventually end stage renal disease. For secondary hyperoxaluria, high dietary oxalate (HDOx) or its precursors intake is a key reason. Recently, accumulated studies highlight the important role of gut microbiota in the regulation of oxalate homeostasis.

Stable-isotope resolved metabolomics (SIRM) is a powerful approach for characterizing metabolic states in cells and organisms. By incorporating isotopes, such as C, into substrates, researchers can trace reaction rates across specific metabolic pathways. Integrating metabolomics data with gene expression profiles further enriches the analysis, as we demonstrated in our prior study on glioblastoma metabolic symbiosis.

Bacterial leaf blight (BLB) in rice, caused by the pathogen pv. , is a significant agricultural problem managed through chemical control and cultivating rice varieties with inherent resistance to the bacterial pathogen. Research has highlighted the potential of using antagonistic microbes which can suppress the BLB pathogen through the production of secondary metabolites like siderophores, rhamnolipids, and hydroxy-alkylquinolines offering a sustainable alternative for BLB management.

Engineered living materials (ELMs) made of bacteria in hydrogels have shown considerable promise for therapeutic applications through controlled and sustained release of complex biopharmaceuticals at low costs and with reduced wastage. While most therapeutic ELMs use E. coli due to its large genetic toolbox, most live biotherapeutic bacteria in development are lactic acid bacteria due to native health benefits they offer.
