Rifampicin is a widely employed index inhibitor to assess the impact of organic anion transporting polypeptide 1B (OATP1B) inhibition on investigational drugs. The observation of nitrosamines in certain drug products, including rifampicin, has impacted the conduct of clinical drug-drug interaction (DDI) studies with rifampicin drug products. Cyclosporine is a recommended alternative to assess in vivo OATP1B activity; however, challenges exist in its use due to pharmacokinetic (PK) variability and non-selective inhibition of other drug disposition mechanisms.

Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a metabolic liver disorder with severe complications. Mitochondrial dysfunction due to over-opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP) in liver cells plays a central role in the development and progression of NAFLD. Restoring mitochondrial function is a promising strategy for NAFLD therapy.

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.

Melanoma cells remain resistant to chemotherapy with cisplatin (CisPt) and doxorubicin (DOX). The abnormal expression of Receptor-Interacting Protein Kinase 4 (RIPK4) in certain melanomas contributes to tumour growth through the NFκB and Wnt/β-catenin signalling pathways, which are known to regulate chemoresistance and recurrence. Despite this, the role of RIPK4 in response to chemotherapeutics in melanoma has not been reported.
