There is a growing interest in harnessing natural compounds and bioactive phytochemicals to accelerate drug discovery and development, including in the treatment of human cancers. Receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) are critical regulators of many fundamental cellular processes and have been implicated in cancer pathogenesis as well as targets for anticancer drug development. The members of TAM, Tyro3, Axl, and MERTK subfamily RTKs, especially Mer, affect immune homeostasis in the tumor microenvironment.

Transdermal drug delivery (TDD) represents a transformative paradigm in drug administration, offering advantages such as controlled drug release, enhanced patient adherence, and circumvention of hepatic first-pass metabolism. Despite these benefits, the inherent barrier function of the skin, primarily attributed to the stratum corneum, remains a significant impediment to the efficient permeation of therapeutic agents. Recent advancements have focused on macromolecular-assisted permeation enhancers, including carbohydrates, lipids, amino acids, nucleic acids, and cell-penetrating peptides, which modulate skin permeability by transiently altering its structural integrity.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of β-glucan on the pasting, gelling, rheological properties, and multi-level structures of the highland barley (HB) starch after dynamic high pressure microfluidization (DHPM) treatment, exploring the inhibition mechanisms of starch retrogradation by endogenous β-glucan after DHPM. DHPM treatment led to a decrease in the viscosity (K values from 161.1 to 54.

Introduction: Chest tube insertions (CTIs) have a high complication rate, prompting the training of technical skills in simulated settings. However, assessment tools require validity evidence prior to their implementation. This study aimed to collect validity evidence for assessment of technical skills in CTI on Thiel-embalmed human bodies.

Objectives: Prehospital endotracheal intubation (ETI) is a lifesaving procedure with known complications. To reduce ETI-associated morbidity and mortality, organizations prioritize first-pass success (FPS). However, there are few data evaluating the association of FPS with clinician licensure.
