Background: Some cancers have been found to require abundant supplies of lipids for their development. One example is prostate cancer (PCa). To date, lipid-modifying factors, such as proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9), angiopoietin-like 3 protein (ANGPTL3), and lipoprotein(a) or Lp(a), have not been reported in men with PCa.

Triggered "On/off" Luminescent Polypeptide Bowl-Shaped Nanoparticles for Selective Lighting of Tumor Cells.

Small

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of High-efficiency Coal Utilization and Green Chemical Engineering, School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, Ningxia University, Yinchuan, 750021, China.

Functional polymeric nanoparticles, especially those with anisotropic structures, have shown significant potential and advantages in biomedical applications including detecting, bioimaging, antimicrobial and anticancer. Herein, tetraphenylethylene (TPE) and azobenzene modified polypeptides of poly((-glutamic acid) tetraphenylethylene-stat-(-glutamic acid)) (P(GATPE-stat-GA)) and poly((-glutamic acid) azobenzene-stat-(-glutamic acid)) (P(GAAzo-stat-GA) are synthesized, which self-assemble into bowl-shaped nanoparticles (BNPs) with controlled diameter, opening size and fluorescent property individually, or by co-assembly. Due to the quenching effect of azobenzene, the fluorescence of the coassembled BNPs is completely inhibited.

Eur J Neurosci

February 2025

Department of Neurology, Guangdong Neuroscience Institute, Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital (Guangdong Academy of Medical Sciences), Southern Medical University, Guangzhou, China.

This Bayesian network meta-analysis method was used to assess the effect of novel treatments on global cognition in patients with Parkinson's disease (PD). We searched randomized controlled trials from PubMed, Cochrane Library, Web of Science and Embase to investigate novel treatments for global PD cognition until April 10, 2024. Effect size measures were standardized mean differences with 95% confidence intervals.

The Effect of Sex Hormones on Joint Ligament Properties: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.

Am J Sports Med

January 2025

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Massachusetts General Hospital, Harvard Medical School, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.

Background: Sex differences exist in injury rates, and one contributing factor may be sex hormone effects on the musculoskeletal system.

Purpose/hypothesis: The goal of this systematic review and meta-analysis was to understand the effects of sex hormones on ligaments in females as determined by preclinical and clinical studies. The hypothesis was that sex hormones would affect ligament mechanical properties, histological features, cellular function, and clinically measurable outcomes.
