Challenging Axillary Lymph Nodes on PET/CT in Cancer Patients Throughout COVID-19 Vaccination Era
CONCLUSION: The correct interpretation of images is crucial to avoid unnecessary treatments and invasive procedures in vaccinated cancer pts. A detailed anamnestic interview and the analysis of lymph nodes' CT characteristics, after performing PET/CT, may help to clear any misleading diagnosis.PMID:38454762 | DOI:10.2174/0113816128246329231016091519 (Source: Current Pharmaceutical Design)

Machine-learning-guided Directed Evolution for AAV Capsid Engineering
Curr Pharm Des. 2024 Mar 5. doi: 10.2174/0113816128286593240226060318. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTarget gene delivery is crucial to gene therapy. Adeno-associated virus (AAV) has emerged as a primary gene therapy vector due to its broad host range, long-term expression, and low pathogenicity. However, AAV vectors have some limitations, such as immunogenicity and insufficient targeting. Designing or modifying capsids is a potential method of improving the efficacy of gene delivery, but hindered by weak biological basis of AAV, complexity of the capsids, and limitations of current screening methods. Artificial intelligen...

Cholesteryl Ester Transfer Protein (CETP) Variations in Relation to Lipid Profiles and Cardiovascular Diseases: An Update
Curr Pharm Des. 2024 Feb 29. doi: 10.2174/0113816128284695240219093612. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTLipid metabolism plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) is a crucial glycoprotein involved in lipid metabolism by transferring cholesteryl esters (CE) and triglycerides (TG) between plasma lipoproteins. CETP activity results in reduced HDL-C and increased VLDL- and LDL-C concentrations, thus increasing the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. In this review, we discuss the structure of CETP and its mechanism of action. Furthe...
