Design of an innovative aptasensor for the detection of chemotherapeutic drug Fludarabine phosphate.

Sci Rep

Monitoring the concentration of Fludarabine phosphate, a standard chemotherapeutic drug widely used in cancer treatment, is vital for ensuring the drug's safety and effectiveness, tailoring treatments to individual needs, and consequently improving overall patient outcomes. Regarding the limitations of conventional techniques in terms of complexity, large time measurements, and a high cost, there is an urgent need to develop simple, rapid, and cost-effective devices. In this paper, we report the design of an aptasensor for the specific and selective detection of Fludarabine.

In the field of natural product research, the rediscovery of already-known compounds is one of the significant issues hindering new drug development. Recently, an innovative approach called bioactivity-HiTES has been developed to overcome this limitation, and several new bioactive metabolites have been successfully characterized by this method. In this study, we applied bioactivity-HiTES to , the human oral bacterium, with 3120 clinical drugs as potential elicitors.

ITC/Toc@Gd(FLP) core@shell nanocarriers with a chemotherapeutic cocktail of lipophilic irinotecan (ITC) as the particle core and hydrophilic fludarabine phosphate (FLP) in the particle shell are realized. They are prepared a microemulsion approach with ITC dissolved in tocopherol (Toc) as droplet phase and stabilized by water-insoluble Gd(FLP). The synthesis can be followed by zeta-potential analysis.

Immune response plays a crucial role in post-myocardial infarction (MI) myocardial remodeling. Neogenin (Neo1), a multifunctional transmembrane receptor, plays a critical role in the immune response; however, whether Neo1 participates in pathological myocardial remodeling after MI is unclear. Our study found that Neo1 expression changed significantly after MI in vivo and after LPS + IFN-γ stimulation in bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) in vitro.

Solute carrier family 25 member 51 (SLC25A51) was recently identified as the mammalian mitochondrial NAD+ transporter essential for mitochondria functions. However, the role of SLC25A51 in human disease, such as cancer, remains undefined. Here, we report that SLC25A51 is upregulated in multiple cancers, which promotes cancer cells proliferation.
