Introduction: (99m)Tc-BnAO is one of the nonnitroimidazole hypoxia markers with the highest citation and could be potentially useful in both oncology and other clinical applications. However, it appears inferior in vitro due to lower absolute accumulation and smaller anoxic/normoxic uptake ratio. It is possible that the analogues of (99m)Tc-BnAO have higher hypoxia selectivity after the ligand of (99m)Tc-BnAO is modified.
Methods: 2,2'-(1,4-Diaminobutane)bis(2-methyl-3-butanone) dioxime (BnAO or HL91) and three novel analogues were synthesized and radiolabeled with technetium-99m. The cellular uptake of the radiolabeled complexes was determined in murine sarcoma S180 cell lines under anoxic and normoxic conditions.
Results: (99m)Tc-BnAO and its three novel analogues continuously accumulated in anoxic cells but not in normoxic ones, while the analogues showed earlier hypoxia selectivity and greater anoxic/normoxic differential.
Conclusions: The analogues are superior to (99m)Tc-BnAO in terms of in vitro hypoxia selectivity and are viable candidates for further development as new nonnitroimidazole hypoxia markers in the future.

Innovative therapeutic strategies are urgently needed to address the ongoing global health concern of hepatobiliary pancreatic malignancies. This review summarizes the latest and most comprehensive research of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR-T) cell engineering immunotherapy for treating hepatobiliary pancreatic cancers. Commencing with an exploration of the distinct anatomical location and the immunosuppressive, hypoxic tumor microenvironment (TME), this review critically assesses the limitations of current CAR-T therapy in hepatobiliary pancreatic cancers and proposes corresponding solutions.

Near-infrared (NIR)-triggered type-I photosensitizers are crucial to address the constraints of hypoxic tumor microenvironments in phototherapy; however, significant challenges remain. By selecting an electron-deficient unit, a matched energy gap in the upper-level state is instrumental in boosting the efficiency of intersystem crossing for the type-I electron transfer process. 2-Cyanothiazole, an electron acceptor, is covalently linked with N, N-diphenyl-4-(thiophen-2-yl)aniline to yield a multifunctional photosensitizer (TTNH) that exhibits intrinsic NIR absorbance and compatible T energy levels, facilitating both radiative and nonradiative transitions.

Background: The neutrophil-mediated generation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) results in an augmented inflammatory response and cellular tissue injury during acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Through the analysis of public database information, we discovered and confirmed putative critical genes involved in NETs-mediated AMI.
Methods: The AMI dataset GSE66360 and the single-cell dataset GSE163465 were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus database.

Introduction: Sildenafil, a selective phosphodiesterase 5 inhibitor, modulates vascular dysfunction, with hypoxia-induced pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) proliferation, migration, and invasion closely implicated in vascular remodeling in persistent pulmonary hypertension of the newborn (PPHN). This study aimed to assess sildenafil's protective effects against PPHN and elucidate underlying molecular pathways.
Methods: Cell Counting Kit-8, wound healing, and Transwell assays evaluated rat PASMC proliferation, migration, and invasion under hypoxia.
