Functionalization of polymer nanoparticles (NPs) with targeting peptides is of interest for drug delivery applications to enhance tumor accumulation and penetration. Herein, we evaluated the feasibility of two different methods for the attachment of a tumor-penetrating peptide LinTT1 (AKRGARSTA) to poly(ethylene glycol)-block-poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL-PEG) NPs: (1) "post-conjugation" onto pre-formed nanoparticles, and (2) "pre-conjugation", the synthesis and purification of peptide-polymer conjugates and subsequent nanoprecipitation of the conjugates diluted with non-functionalized polymers. Conjugation of the labelled peptide via maleimide-thiol chemistry was verified by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and fluorescence measurements.

The death and clearance of nurse cells is a consequential milestone in Drosophila melanogaster oogenesis. In preparation for oviposition, the germline-derived nurse cells bequeath to the developing oocyte all their cytoplasmic contents and undergo programmed cell death. The death of the nurse cells is controlled non-autonomously and is precipitated by epithelial follicle cells of somatic origin acquiring a squamous morphology and acidifying the nurse cells externally.

Article Synopsis
  • The family of PEComa consists of various mesenchymal tumors with myomelanocytic characteristics, including a unique type linked to TFE3 gene rearrangement.
  • Recent findings show that the YAP1::TFE3 fusion is present in clear cell stromal tumors of the lung and certain inflammatory spindle cell PEComas, though the connection between these two remains uncertain.
  • This report details a case of pulmonary malignant PEComa with TFE3 rearrangement that also has the YAP1::TFE3 fusion, contributing to the understanding of the characteristics and genetic factors of lung neoplasms related to PEComa.

Background: Neurodegeneration is characterized by the progressive loss of neurons. However, the mechanisms by which neurons die in Alzheimer's disease (AD) remain elusive. Disrupted iron homeostasis is associated with accelerated cognitive decline, amyloid beta deposition, and AD progression, but its pathogenic relevance is poorly understood.
