Fluorescence photobleaching recovery measurements showed that herpes simplex virus type 1 attachment to target cells rapidly induced an anchorage modulation of cell surface protein mobility, an activity mediated by the cytoskeleton and associated with the multivalent attachment of other ligands (e.g., cells, lectins, or anti-immunoglobulin) to cell surfaces. The restriction in cell surface protein mobility was released concurrently with virus penetration. The effects of attachment and penetration on cell surface protein mobility and cytoskeletal function are some of the earliest cellular changes induced by herpes simplex virus infection.

Herein, fluorescent calcium carbonate nanoclusters encapsulated with methotrexate (Mtx) and surface functionalized with chitosan (25 nm) (@Calmat) have been developed for the imaging and treatment of triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). These biocompatible, pH-sensitive nanoparticles demonstrate significant potential for targeted therapy and diagnostic applications. The efficacy of nanoparticles (NPs) was evaluated in MDA-MB-231 TNBC cell lines.

Arsenic trioxide (ATO), the active ingredient in Chinese arsenic, effectively inhibits hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cell growth, but its clinical application is limited by the lack of a targeted delivery system. Phosphatidylinositol proteoglycan 3 (GPC3) is specifically expressed in HCC, and CPP44 is a cell-penetrating peptide that targets HCC cells. Here, we developed a liposome incorporating ATO with dual surface modifications of anti-GPC3 antibody and CPP44.

ISB 1442 is a bispecific biparatopic antibody in clinical development to treat hematological malignancies. It consists of two adjacent anti-CD38 arms targeting non-overlapping epitopes that preferentially drive binding to tumor cells and a low-affinity anti-CD47 arm to enable avidity-induced blocking of proximal CD47 receptors. We previously reported the pharmacology of ISB 1442, designed to reestablish synthetic immunity in CD38+ hematological malignancies.

Ultrasmall and highly fluorescent gold nanoclusters (Au NCs) have been widely used for the construction of sensing and imaging platforms. Specifically, through a combination of surface functionalization and spectral analysis and/or imaging techniques, effective intracellular detection and imaging are realized. In this review, we summarize the recently adopted intracellular analysis and imaging events with Au NCs-based probes.

Background: Insulin resistance is tightly related to cognition; however, the causal association between them remains a matter of debate. Our investigation aims to establish the causal relationship and direction between insulin resistance and cognition, while also quantifying the mediating role of brain cortical structure in this association.
Methods: The publicly available data sources for insulin resistance (fasting insulin, homeostasis model assessment beta-cell function and homeostasis model assessment insulin resistance, proinsulin), brain cortical structure, and cognitive phenotypes (visual memory, reaction time) were obtained from the MAGIC, ENIGMA, and UK Biobank datasets, respectively.
