In vitro-in vivo correlation (IVIVC), linking in vitro drug release to in vivo drug release or in vivo drug absorption, has been explored chiefly for oral extended-release dosage forms. Currently, there are no official guidelines on IVIVC development for non-oral drug delivery systems. Recently, many long-acting injectable (LAI) formulations based on poly(lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) have been developed to deliver various drugs, ranging from small molecules to peptides and proteins, for up to 6 months. The circumstances involved in the LAI formulations are drastically different from those in oral formulations, which generally deliver drugs for a maximum of 24 h. This article examines 37 IVIVC studies of PLGA microparticle formulations available in the literature. Understanding and establishing an IVIVC of LAI formulations requires more than merely plotting the percentage in vitro drug release against the percentage in vivo absorption. In vivo drug absorption (or release) should be measured to provide a complete pharmacokinetic profile when feasible. Accelerated in vitro release methods need to be respective of the real-time measurements by sharing the same release mechanism. Obtaining meaningful IVIVCs with predictive capability will be highly useful for future regulatory actions and for developing generic and new formulations.

Synapse-specific catecholaminergic modulation of neuronal glutamate release.

Norepinephrine in vertebrates and its invertebrate analog, octopamine, regulate the activity of neural circuits. We find that, when hungry, larvae switch activity in type II octopaminergic motor neurons (MNs) to high-frequency bursts, which coincide with locomotion-driving bursts in type I glutamatergic MNs that converge on the same muscles. Optical quantal analysis across hundreds of synapses simultaneously reveals that octopamine potentiates glutamate release by tonic type Ib MNs, but not phasic type Is MNs, and occurs via the G-coupled octopamine receptor (OAMB).

While iron (Fe) is essential for life and plays important roles for almost all growth related processes, it can trigger cell death in both animals and plants. However, the underlying mechanisms for Fe-induced cell death in plants remain largely unknown. S-nitrosoglutathione reductase (GSNOR) has previously been reported to regulate nitric oxide homeostasis to prevent Fe-induced cell death within root meristems.

Small molecules as nanomedicine carriers offer advantages in drug loading and preparation. Selecting effective small molecules for stable nanomedicines is challenging. This study used artificial intelligence (AI) to screen drug combinations for self-assembling nanomedicines, employing physiochemical parameters to predict formation via machine learning.

Although cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) activation combined with programmed cell death-1 (PD-1)/programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) axis blockade have emerged as an effective strategy to improve immunotherapeutic potency, it remains challenging to realize the spatiotemporal synergy of these two components. Herein, the study reports an engineered bacterial-based delivery system that can simultaneously promote CTLs infiltration and control PD-L1 binding protein (PD-L1 trap) release on demand at tumor site. The drug release button of this tumor targeting system is the specific temperature, which is accomplished by dual-modified melanin nanoparticles with photothermal conversion capacity on the engineered bacterial.

Sjögren's syndrome-related dry eye (SSDE) is a severe dry eye subtype characterized by significant immune cell attacks on the lacrimal gland. However, delivering immunosuppressive drugs to the lacrimal glands for SSDE therapy safely and sustainably poses significant challenges in clinical practice. Herein, a ROS-responsive microneedle patch with detachable functionality (CE-MN) is developed to enable straightforward and minimally invasive administration to the lacrimal gland area by penetrating the periocular skin.
