Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a severe irreversible complication of diabetes mellitus that further disturbs glucose metabolism. Identifying metabolic changes in the blood may provide early insight into DKD pathogenesis. This study aims to determine blood biomarkers differentiating DKD from non-diabetic kidney disease in the Emirati population utilizing the LC-MS/MS platform. Blood samples were collected from hemodialysis subjects with and without diabetes to detect indicators of pathological changes using an untargeted metabolomics approach. Metabolic profiles were analyzed based on clinically confirmed diabetic status and current HbA1c values. Five differentially significant metabolites were identified based on the clinically confirmed diabetic status, including hydroxyprogesterone and 3,4-Dihydroxymandelic acid. Similarly, we identified seven metabolites with apparent differences between Dialysis Diabetic (DD) and Dialysis non-Diabetic (DND) groups, including isovalerylglycine based on HbA1c values. Likewise, the top three metabolic pathways, including Tyrosine metabolism, were identified following the clinically confirmed diabetic status. As a result, nine different metabolites were enriched in the identified metabolic pathways, such as 3,4-Dihydroxymandelic acid. As a result, eleven different metabolites were enriched, including Glycerol. This study provides an insight into blood metabolic changes related to DKD that may lead to more effective management strategies.

Therapeutic hurdles persist in the fight against lung cancer, although it is a leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Results are still not up to par, even with the best efforts of conventional medicine, thus new avenues of investigation are required. Examining how immunotherapy, precision medicine, and AI are being used to manage lung cancer, this review shows how these tools can change the game for patients and increase their chances of survival.

Aims: This study aimed to develop Imatinib Mesylate (IMT)-loaded Poly Lactic-co-Glycolic Acid (PLGA)-D-α-tocopheryl polyethylene glycol succinate (TPGS)- Polyethylene glycol (PEG) hybrid nanoparticles (CSLHNPs) with optimized physicochemical properties for targeted delivery to glioblastoma multiforme.
Background: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is the most destructive type of brain tumor with several complications. Currently, most treatments for drug delivery for this disease face challenges due to the poor blood-brain barrier (BBB) and lack of site-specific delivery.
