It has been shown by using EPR method that hydrophobic complexes Fe(2+)-diethyldithiocarbamate (DETC) act more efficiently as a selective traps of nitric oxide (NO) in mice organisms than hydrophilic complexes Fe(2+)-N-methyl-D-glutamyldithiocarbamate (MGD). This difference seemed to be due to higher stability of paramagnetic mononitrosyl iron complexes with DETC (MNIC-DETC) formed in vivo in animal tissues in a result of NO binding with Fe(2+)-DETC complexes. Analogous complexes MNIC-MGD appeared a blood were oxidized to diamagnetic, EPR silent form. The latter was also detected in mouse urine especially for animals which were pretreated with bacterial lipopolysaccharide inducing increased NO generation in mice organisms. Nitrogen dioxide or peroxynitrite formed endogenous NO were suggested to be the agents which oxidized MNIC-MGD by reversible way in mice organisms.

Purpose: The incidence of malignant melanoma (MM) has risen over the past three decades, and despite advancements in treatment, there is still a need to improve treatment modalities. This study developed a promising strategy for tumor-targeted co-delivery of Dacarbazine (DTIC) and miRNA 34a-loaded PHRD micelles (Co-PHRD) for combination treatment of MM.
Methods: To construct the dual drug-loaded delivery system Co-PHRD, poly (L-arginine)-poly (L-histidine)-polylactic acid (PLA) was employed as a building block.

Background: Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is the most common tick-borne viral infection in Eurasia. Outcomes range from asymptomatic infection to fatal encephalitis, with host genetics likely playing a role. BALB/c mice have intermediate susceptibility to TBE virus (TBEV) and STS mice are highly resistant, whereas the recombinant congenic strain CcS-11, which carries 12.

Background: Previous studies showed airborne bacteria affect pneumonia incidence, but specific impacts of bacterial communities on Klebsiella pneumoniae infection were unknown.
Methods: Five different ratios of bacterial community structures were randomly generated. Mice were divided into control, artificial bacterial community exposure, and corresponding Klebsiella pneumoniae challenge groups.

mRNA-based protein replacement therapy has become one of the most widely applied forms of mRNA therapy, with lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) being extensively studied as efficient delivery platforms for mRNA. However, existing LNPs tend to accumulate in the liver or kidneys after intravenous injection, highlighting the need to develop vectors capable of targeting specific organs. In this study, we synthesized a small library of ionizable lipids and identified PPz-2R as a promising candidate, exhibiting lung-targeting capabilities, high mRNA transfection efficiency, and good stability through structure-activity relationship studies.
