Leishmaniasis, a neglected tropical disease caused by Leishmania parasites, continues to pose global health challenges. Current treatments face issues like resistance, safety, efficacy, and cost. This review covers the discovery, mechanisms of action, clinical applications, and limitations of key antileishmanial agents: pentavalent antimonials, amphotericin B, miltefosine, paromomycin, and pentamidine.

Protozoan parasite infections, particularly leishmaniasis, present significant public health challenges in tropical and subtropical regions, affecting socio-economic status and growth. Despite advancements in immunology, effective vaccines remain vague, leaving drug treatments as the primary intervention. However, existing medications face limitations, such as toxicity and the rise of drug-resistant parasites.

Successful nerve repair using bioadhesive hydrogels demands minimizing tissue-material interfacial mechanical mismatch to reduce immune responses and scar tissue formation. Furthermore, it is crucial to maintain the bioelectrical stimulation-mediated cell-signaling mechanism to overcome communication barriers within injured nerve tissues. Therefore, engineering bioadhesives for neural tissue regeneration necessitates the integration of electroconductive properties with tissue-like biomechanics.

To overcome the toxic nature of organic solvents, scientific interest in the use of green solvents, particularly natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES), has increased over the past decade, leading to new applications in the food, nutraceutical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Understanding the physicochemical properties and molecular interactions of NADES is essential for uncovering new potential applications in these fields. In this study, several lactic and citric acid-based NADES, as well as chloride choline- and urea-based NADES, were evaluated for their physicochemical properties, including density, pH, viscosity, conductivity, and refractive index.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a form of chronic liver inflammation associated with metabolic syndrome, such as obesity and a major cause of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Multi-biotics, a soymilk fermented with lactic acid bacteria, are known to alleviate obesity by lowering lipid profile. This study aimed to establish and characterize mouse organoids derived from MASH-related HCC models to evaluate drug responses, particularly focusing on Lenvatinib resistance.
