A bioorthogonal approach is explored to release the content of nanoparticles on demand. Exploiting our recently described click-and-release technology, we developed a new generation of cleavable micelles able to disassemble through a sequential enzymatic and bioorthogonal activation process. Proof-of-concept experiments showed that this new approach could be successfully used to deliver the substances encapsulated into micelles in living cells as well as in mice by two complementary targeted strategies.

Purpose: Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) harboring topoisomerase I (TOP1) inhibitor payloads have improved survival for patients with metastatic breast cancer (MBC). However, knowledge of ADC resistance mechanisms and potential impact on sequential use of ADCs is limited. Here, we report the incidence and characterization of TOP1 mutations arising in the setting of ADC resistance in MBC.

Cellulose nanostructures obtained from lignocellulosic biomass via enzymatic processes may offer advantages in terms of material properties and processing sustainability. Thus, in this study, cellulose nanoparticles with a spherical morphology were produced through the enzymatic hydrolysis of cashew apple bagasse (CAB). CAB was previously subjected to alkaline and acid-alkali pretreatment, and the pretreated solids were labeled as CAB-PTA and CAB-PT-HA, respectively.

Sea buckthorn, rich in nutrients and bioactive compounds such as phenolics, fatty acids, and vitamins, presents processing challenges due to its intense sourness and bland flavor. This study addresses key challenges in flavor enhancement and sourness reduction by evaluating the effects of pectinase treatment and inoculation sequences on the overall quality. Optimal malic acid degradation and antioxidant occurred when Schizosaccharomyces pombe (S.

Novel and simple spectrophotometric and distance based procedures for thiols (L-cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, and glutathione) determination in biological fluids and pharmaceuticals have been proposed based on their inhibitory action on the oxidation of catechol in the presence of Agaricus bisporus crude extract (ABE). The influence of L-glycine, L-alanine, L-proline, L-methionine, L-cystine, ascorbic acid, uric acid, and bilirubin on the thiol determination has been investigated. Uric acid, bilirubin, L-cystine (oxidized thiol), and L-amino acids do not interfere with the determination.

Mass spectrometry-based investigation of the heterogeneous glycoproteome from complex biological specimens is a robust approach to mapping the structure, function, and dynamics of the glycome and proteome. Sampling whole wet tissues often provides a large amount of starting material; however, there is a reasonable variability in tissue handling prior to downstream processing steps, and it is difficult to capture all the different biomolecules from a specific region. The on-slide tissue digestion approach, outlined in this protocol chapter, is a simple and cost-effective method that allows comprehensive mapping of the glycoproteome from a single spot of tissue of 1 mm or greater diameter.
