Cellulose Based Nano-Scaffolds for Targeted Cancer Therapies: Current Status and Future Perspective.

Int J Nanomedicine

January 2025

Department of General Practice and Family Medicine, The Second Hospital of Jilin University, Changchun, 130000, People's Republic of China.

In the last few years, cellulose has garnered much interest for its application in drug delivery, especially in cancer therapy. It has special properties like biocompatibility, biodegradability, high porosity, and water permeability render it a good candidate for developing efficient carriers for anticancer agents. Cellulose based nanomaterials like cellulose nanofibers, bacterial cellulose, cellulose nanocrystals and microcrystalline cellulose as delivery vehicles for targeted drug delivery to cancer cells are reviewed.

Provider perspectives on caring for patients with limited English proficiency-a national survey of the Society of Gynecologic Oncology.

Gynecol Oncol Rep

February 2025

Division of Gynecologic Oncology, Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Reproductive Sciences, University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine, Pittsburgh, PA, United States.

Background: In diversity, equity and inclusion research, overcoming barriers in language discordant patient care is one of the largest and most challenging gaps. It is well established that patients with limited English proficiency (LEP) have higher rates of misdiagnosis, medical errors, and serious adverse events, and recommended best practices for LEP patient care are often not followed.

Objective: Our team sought to elicit provider perspectives regarding the barriers they face in caring for LEP patients-especially the unique challenges faced when caring for patients with complex and sensitive diagnoses such as gynecologic cancer.

T-cell receptor (TCR) sequencing provides a novel platform for insight into and characterization of intricate T-cell profiles, advancing the understanding of tumor immune heterogeneity. Recently, transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with systemic therapy has become the recommended regimen for advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. The regulation of the immune microenvironment after TACE and its impact on tumor progression and recurrence has been a focus of research.

Background And Objective: Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are increasingly being used to capture the patients' perspective of their functional status and quality of life (QoL). Big data can help us better understand patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Using prospectively collected data from the Prostate Cancer Diagnosis and Treatment Enhancement Through the Power of Big Data in Europe (PIONEER) consortium, we aimed to describe the functional status and QoL in men with prostate cancer (PCa) treated with active surveillance (AS), radical prostatectomy (RP), and radiotherapy (RT), and to demonstrate the applicability of PROM data on a large scale and at a European level.
