3D Printed Personalized Colon-targeted Tablets: A Novel Approach in Ulcerative Colitis Management
Curr Drug Deliv. 2023 Sep 15. doi: 10.2174/1567201821666230915150544. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTUlcerative colitis (UC) and Crohn's disease (CD) are two types of idiopathic inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) that are increasing in frequency and incidence worldwide, particularly in highly industrialized countries. Conventional tablets struggle to effectively deliver anti-inflammatory drugs since the inflammation is localized in different areas of the colon in each patient. The goal of 3D printing technology in pharmaceutics is to create personalized drug delivery systems (DDS) that are tailored to each individual's specif...

Deciphering Drug Targets and Actions with Single-Cell and Spatial Resolution
Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1146/annurev-pharmtox-033123-123610. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTRecent advances in chemical, molecular, and genetic approaches have provided us with an unprecedented capacity to identify drug-target interactions across the whole proteome and genome. Meanwhile, rapid developments of single-cell and spatial omics technologies are revolutionizing our understanding of the molecular architecture of biological systems. However, a significant gap remains in how we align our understanding of drug actions, traditionally based on molecular affinities, with the in vivo cellular and ...

Circadian Regulation of Drug Responses: Toward Sex-Specific and Personalized Chronotherapy
Annu Rev Pharmacol Toxicol. 2023 Sep 18. doi: 10.1146/annurev-pharmtox-051920-095416. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTToday's challenge for precision medicine involves the integration of the impact of molecular clocks on drug pharmacokinetics, toxicity, and efficacy, toward personalized chronotherapy. Meaningful improvements of tolerability and/or efficacy of medications through proper administration timing have been confirmed over the past decade for immunotherapy and chemotherapy against cancer, as well as for commonly used pharmacological agents in cardiovascular, metabolic, inflammatory, and neurological conditions. Expe...

Optimising antithrombotic therapy after ACS and PCI
Vascul Pharmacol. 2023 Sep 15:107228. doi: 10.1016/j.vph.2023.107228. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTDual antiplatelet therapy, combining aspirin with a platelet P2Y12 receptor inhibitor, is the standard treatment for acute coronary syndrome patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention. The optimal type and duration of dual antiplatelet therapy depend on the patient's risk for ischemic and hemorrhagic complications. De-escalation strategies, such as switching to a less potent P2Y12 inhibitor, reducing the dose, or discontinuing one of the antiplatelet agents, may be suitable for high-risk bleeding patients with lo...

NAP1L5 facilitates pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma progression via TRIM29-mediated ubiquitination of PHLPP1
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Sep 15:115811. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115811. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is considered one of the most aggressive solid tumours in humans. Despite its high mortality rate, effective targeted therapeutic strategies remain limited due to incomplete understanding of the underlying biological mechanisms. The NAP1L gene family has been implicated in the development and progression of various human tumours. However, the specific function and role of NAP1L5 (nucleosome assembly protein-like 5) in PDAC have not been fully elucidated. Therefore, in this study, we a...

High-throughput screening as a drug repurposing strategy for poor outcome subgroups of pediatric B-cell precursor Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Sep 15:115809. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115809. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAlthough a great cure rate has been achieved for pediatric BCP-ALL, approximately 15% of patients do not respond to conventional chemotherapy and experience disease relapse. A major effort to improve the cure rates by treatment intensification would result in an undesirable increase in treatment-related toxicity and mortality, raising the need to identify novel therapeutic approaches. High-throughput (HTP) drug screening enables the profiling of patients' responses in vitro and allows the repurposing of compounds currently ...

Cucurbitacin C suppresses the progression of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma via inhibition of the cGMP-PKG-VASP axis
Biochem Pharmacol. 2023 Sep 15:115810. doi: 10.1016/j.bcp.2023.115810. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains one of the most devastating diseases; it has a considerably poor prognosis and may become the second most lethal malignancy in the next 10 years. Chemotherapeutic resistance is common in PDAC; thus, it is necessary to exploit effective alternative drugs. In recent years, traditional folk medicines and their extracts have shown great potential in cancer treatment. The seed of Lagenaria siceraria (Molina) Standl. is a traditional medicine in Asia. Because of its analgesic effect...

Intratumoral injection of melatonin enhances tumor regression in cell line-derived and patient-derived xenografts of head and neck cancer by increasing mitochondrial oxidative stress
Biomed Pharmacother. 2023 Sep 15;167:115518. doi: 10.1016/j.biopha.2023.115518. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTHead and neck squamous cell carcinoma present a high mortality rate. Melatonin has been shown to have oncostatic effects in different types of cancers. However, inconsistent results have been reported for in vivo applications. Consequently, an alternative administration route is needed to improve bioavailability and establish the optimal dosage of melatonin for cancer treatment. On the other hand, the use of patient-derived tumor models has transformed the field of drug research because they reflect the heterogenei...
