Klotho is an anti-aging protein produced primarily by tubular epithelial cells (TECs). Down-regulated expression of Klotho in injured TECs plays a key pathogenic role in promoting acute kidney injury (AKI) to chronic kidney disease (CKD) transition, yet therapeutic approaches targeting the restoration of renal Klotho levels remain challenging for clinical application. Here, we synthesize polydopamine-polyethylenimine-l-serine-Klotho plasmid nanoparticles (PPSK NPs), which can safely and selectively deliver the Klotho gene to the injured TECs through binding kidney injury molecule-1 and maintain the expression of Klotho protein.

Programmed cell death ligand-1 (PD-L1) is an ideal checkpoint for immunohistochemical detection. The method of obtaining PD-L1 expression through biopsy can impact the accurate assessment of PD-L1 expression due to the spatial and temporal heterogeneity of tumors. Because of the limited sample size, biopsies often give only a localized picture of the tumor.

Bladder cancer (BC) is a significant global health issue with high incidence and mortality rates. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play a crucial role in regulating gene expression and have been found to be dysregulated in BC. Understanding the role of miRNAs in BC development could lead to targeted therapies and improved patient management.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a chronic autoimmune disease with heterogeneous clinical manifestations, often leading to significant morbidity and mortality, particularly due to lupus nephritis (LN). The standard therapeutic approach involving mycophenolate mofetil, cyclophosphamide, and glucocorticoids has shown limitations due to cumulative toxicity and side effects. The introduction of biologic agents, especially rituximab (RTX), a chimeric monoclonal antibody targeting CD20+ B cells, has revolutionized the treatment landscape.

Aim: To investigate the correlation of the triglyceride-glucose (TyG) index and its combined obesity indicators with chest pain and cardiovascular disease (CVD) in the pre-diabetes and diabetes population.
Methods: This cross-sectional investigation encompassed 6488 participants with diabetes and pre-diabetes who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) between 2007 and 2016. The association of the TyG and combined obesity index with chest pain and CVD was investigated using weighted logistic regression models and restricted cubic spline (RCS) analysis.

Importance: Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) on kidney biopsy is a pattern of endothelial injury commonly seen in malignant hypertension (mHTN), but treatment strategies are not well established.
Objective: To evaluate the kidney outcomes of angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor (ARNI), specifically sacubitril/valsartan, vs angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor (ACEI) or angiotensin receptor blocker (ARB) therapy for patients with mHTN-associated TMA.
Design, Setting, And Participants: This single-center cohort study enrolled consecutive patients in China diagnosed with mHTN-associated TMA through kidney biopsy from January 2008 to June 2023.

Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a disease that is characterized by a rapid decline in renal function and has a relatively high incidence in hospitalized patients. Sepsis, renal hypoperfusion, and nephrotoxic drug exposure are the main causes of AKI. The major therapy measures currently include supportive treatment, symptomatic treatment, and kidney transplantation.

Background: Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is a standard procedure for early-stage breast cancer (BC) patients with three or more positive sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). However, ALND can lead to significant postoperative complications without always providing additional clinical benefits. This study aims to develop machine-learning (ML) models to predict non-sentinel lymph node (non-SLN) metastasis in Chinese BC patients with three or more positive SLNs, potentially allowing the omission of ALND.

Agranulocytosis, induced by non-chemotherapy drugs, is a serious medical condition that presents a formidable challenge in predictive toxicology due to its idiosyncratic nature and complex mechanisms. In this study, we assembled a dataset of 759 compounds and applied a rigorous feature selection process prior to employing ensemble machine learning classifiers to forecast non-chemotherapy drug-induced agranulocytosis (NCDIA) toxicity. The balanced bagging classifier combined with a gradient boosting decision tree (BBC + GBDT), utilizing the combined descriptor set of DS and RDKit comprising 237 features, emerged as the top-performing model, with an external validation AUC of 0.
