Cancer treatments such as surgery and chemotherapy have several limitations, including ineffectiveness against large or persistent tumors, high relapse rates, drug toxicity, and non-specificity of therapy. Researchers are exploring advanced strategies for treating this life-threatening disease to address these challenges. One promising approach is targeted drug delivery using prodrugs or surface modification with receptor-specific moieties for active or passive targeting.

Type 2 diabetes as a world-wide epidemic is characterized by the insulin resistance concomitant to a gradual impairment of β-cell mass and function (prominently declining insulin secretion) with dysregulated fatty acids (FAs) and lipids, all involved in multiple pathological development. Recently, redox signaling was recognized to be essential for insulin secretion stimulated with glucose (GSIS), branched-chain keto-acids, and FAs. FA-stimulated insulin secretion (FASIS) is a normal physiological event upon postprandial incoming chylomicrons.

Purpose Of Review: While lipid-lowering therapies demonstrate efficacy, many patients still contend with significant residual risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVD). The intestine plays a pivotal role in regulating circulating lipoproteins levels, thereby exerting influence on ASCVD pathogenesis. This review underscores recent genetic findings from the last six years that delineate new biological pathways and actors in the intestine which regulate lipid-related ASCVD risk.

A protein corona is present on any nanoparticle (NP) entering biological fluids; however, the existence of a natural protein corona on natural NPs has not been experimentally confirmed. We used our previously developed photomodification method to fix the natural corona on "biological nanoparticles" (bio-NPs) in fetal bovine serum and newborn bovine serum; native sera served as a control. To isolate photomodified bio-NPs, we used ultracentrifugation (UC), sucrose gradient (12%, 30%, and 50%), and sucrose cushion (30%) methods.

Background: Lipoprotein fractions are reported to be unstable in stored human samples, and there is a paucity of information on the analytical precision of electrophoretic separation of lipoproteins in canine serum samples.
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effects of intra- and inter-assay imprecision and of storage conditions on the electrophoretic separation of canine lipoproteins.
Methods: Imprecision was assessed by calculating the coefficient of variation (CV) of five replicates of six serum samples run in two sequential runs of agarose gel lipoprotein electrophoresis.
