Obesity is a global health concern that promotes chronic low-grade inflammation, leading to insulin resistance, a key factor in many metabolic diseases. Angiotensin 1-7 (Ang 1-7), a component of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), exhibits anti-inflammatory effects in obesity and related disorders, though its mechanisms remain unclear. In this study, we examined the effect of Ang 1-7 on inflammation of white adipose tissue (WAT) in dietary-induced obese mice.

Rare Cell Population Analysis in Early-Stage Breast Cancer Patients.

Breast Cancer (Auckl)

January 2025

Department of Surgery, Faculty of Medicine Ramathibodi Hospital, Mahidol University, Bangkok, Thailand.

Background: Circulating rare cells participate in breast cancer evolution as systemic components of the disease and thus, are a source of theranostic information. Exploration of cancer-associated rare cells is in its infancy.

Objectives: We aimed to investigate and classify abnormalities in the circulating rare cell population among early-stage breast cancer patients using fluorescence marker identification and cytomorphology.

Circulating tumour cells (CTCs) can be detected in peripheral blood using their physical properties (increased size and less deformable than normal circulating blood cells) or using cell surface markers. The study of these CTCs should provide important insights into tumour biology, including mechanisms of drug resistance. We performed a pilot study (IRAS ID: 235459) to evaluate if CTCs could be isolated from peripheral blood samples collected from soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients.

Metastases are the leading cause of cancer-related deaths, and their origin is not fully elucidated. Recently, studies have shown that extracellular vesicles (EVs), particularly small extracellular vesicles (sEV), can disrupt the homeostasis of organs, promoting the development of a secondary tumor. However, the role of sEV in brain endothelium and their association with metastasis related to breast cancer is unknown.

NIR Triggered Bionic Bilayer Membrane-Encapsulated Nanoparticles for Synergistic Photodynamic, Photothermal and Chemotherapy of Cervical Cancer.

Int J Nanomedicine

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Pathogenesis Prevention and Treatment of High Incidence Diseases in Central Asia, School of Medical Engineering and Technology Xinjiang Medical University, Urumqi, 830011, People's Republic of China.

Purpose: A synergistic treatment strategy of phototherapy and chemotherapy has been shown to improve efficacy and offer unique advantages over monotherapy. The purpose of this study is to explore a new nanocarrier system with liposome as the inner membrane and erythrocyte membrane as the outer membrane, which aims to realize the leak-free load of phototherapy drug indocyanine green (ICG) and chemotherapy drug doxorubicin (DOX), prolong the circulation time in vivo and improve the therapeutic effect.

Patients And Methods: In this study, bilayer membrane-loaded ICG and DOX nanoparticles (RBC@ICG-DOX NPs) were prepared and characterized.
