Background & Aims: A common genetic variant (rs738409) encoding isoleucine to methionine at position 148 in the PNPLA3 protein is a determinant of hepatic steatosis, inflammation, fibrosis, cirrhosis, and liver-related mortality. AZD2693 is a liver-targeted antisense oligonucleotide against PNPLA3 mRNA. We evaluated the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and pharmacodynamics in single ascending dose (SAD) and multiple ascending dose (MAD) studies.

Background: Extracellular vesicles are easily accessible in various biofluids and allow the assessment of disease-related changes in the proteome. This has made them a promising target for biomarker studies, especially in the field of neurodegeneration where access to diseased tissue is very limited. Genetic variants in the LRRK2 gene have been linked to both familial and sporadic forms of Parkinson's disease.

Aim: Phantoms are often utilized for the preclinical evaluation of novel high-intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) systems, serving as valuable tools for validating efficacy. In the present study, the feasibility of a homogeneous agar-based breast-shaped phantom as a tool for the preclinical evaluation of HIFU systems dedicated to breast cancer was assessed. Specifically, the effect of the increased phantom curvature on temperature increase was examined through sonications executed on two sides having varied curvatures.
