Dual alarmin-receptor-specific targeting peptide systems for treatment of sepsis.

The pathophysiology of sepsis is characterized by a systemic inflammatory response to infection; however, the cytokine blockade that targets a specific early inflammatory mediator, such as tumor necrosis factor, has shown disappointing results in clinical trials. During sepsis, excessive endotoxins are internalized into the cytoplasm of immune cells, resulting in dysregulated pyroptotic cell death, which induces the leakage of late mediator alarmins such as HMGB1 and PTX3. As late mediators of lethal sepsis, overwhelming amounts of alarmins bind to high-affinity TLR4/MD2 and low-affinity RAGE receptors, thereby amplifying inflammation during early-stage sepsis.

Introduction: Compared with the guideline-recommended use of low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) for 28 days to prevent venous thromboembolism (VTE) after cytoreductive surgery, oral rivaroxaban avoids the pain and inconvenience of daily injections and reduces medical expenses. The proposed randomised controlled trial (RCT) aims to compare the efficacy and safety of rivaroxaban and enoxaparin in preventing VTE in patients after surgery for gynaecological malignancies and to provide a reference for clinical medication prevention.
Methods And Analysis: This is a single-centre, randomised, controlled, open-label and assessor-blind clinical trial.
Trazodone, dibenzoylmethane and tauroursodeoxycholic acid do not prevent motor dysfunction and neurodegeneration in Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome mice.

There is no cure for Marinesco-Sjögren syndrome (MSS), a genetic multisystem disease linked to loss-of-function mutations in the SIL1 gene, encoding a BiP co-chaperone. Previously, we showed that the PERK kinase inhibitor GSK2606414 delays cerebellar Purkinje cell (PC) degeneration and the onset of ataxia in the woozy mouse model of MSS. However, GSK2606414 is toxic to the pancreas and does not completely rescue the woozy phenotype.

The application of nanotechnology in medical biology has seen a significant rise in recent years because of the introduction of novel tools that include supramolecular systems, complexes, and composites. Dendrimers are one of the remarkable examples of such tools. These spherical, regularly branching structures with enhanced cell compatibility and bioavailability have shown to be an excellent option for gene or drug administration.
