Eosinophil-activating Semiconducting Polymer Nanoparticles for Cancer Photo-immunotherapy
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2024 May 3:e202405358. doi: 10.1002/anie.202405358. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTEosinophils are important immune effector cells that affect T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. However, the low frequency and restrained activity of eosinophils restricted the development of cancer immunotherapies. We herein report an eosinophil-activating semiconducting polymer nanoparticle (SPNe) to improve photodynamic tumor immunogenicity, modulate eosinophil chemotaxis, and reinvigorate T-cell immunity for activated cancer photo-immunotherapy. SPNe is composed of an amphiphilic semiconducting polymer and a dipept...

Miniature mass spectrometer-based point-of-care assay for quantification of metformin and sitagliptin in human blood and urine
This study developed a point-of-care (POC) assay method utilizing a miniature mass spectrometer, enabling rapid and accurate quantification of MET and STG concentrations in human blood and urine. By combining the miniature mass spectrometer with paper spray ionization, this method simplifies the process into three to four steps, requires minimal amounts of bodily fluids (50 μL of blood and 2 μL of urine), and is able to obtain quantification results within approximately 2 min. Stable isotope-labeled internal standards were employed to enhance the accuracy and stability of measurement. The MS/MS responses exhibited good l...

Comprehensive safety profile of dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors: a post-marketing study based on FAERS database using signal detection algorithms
CONCLUSION: Several significant disproportionality signals were observed with DPP-4 inhibitors. However, clinicians have to consider the comorbidities and concomitant drugs while prescribing these drugs.PMID:38626310 | DOI:10.1080/14740338.2024.2343015 (Source: Expert Opinion on Drug Safety)

Identification of Risk Factors for Gliptin-associated Bullous Pemphigoid among Diabetic Patients
This study aimed at identifying risk factors for gliptin-associated bullous pemphigoid among patients with type 2 diabetes. A retrospective study was conducted in a tertiary centre among diabetic patients exposed to gliptins between the years 2008-2021. Data including demographics, comorbidities, medications, and laboratory results were collected using the MDClone platform. Seventy-six patients with type 2 diabetes treated with dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors who subsequently developed bullous pemphigoid were compared with a cohort of 8,060 diabetic patients exposed to dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 inhibitors who did not develo...
