Cancer dots can be used to generate bioimages of drug delivery systems in action. Their purpose is to function as a selective drug delivery system to target cancer cells, HepG2 cells, as well as trace and potentially kill the cancer cell. Fluorescent carbon...
This article serves as a review of different methods that can be used to create polymeric nanoparticles. It gives immense details about the basics of polymeric nanoparticles including what they are as well as their numerous polymeric reagents that are used...
This paper describes the use of various body positions in order to overcome vasovagal syncope. So, before I begin this review I need to give a bit of background as to why I have been reading this – esp. as I am a molecular microbiologist, not an MD, and...
Modifying electrodes, to include polymers instead of metals, could be beneficial for progressions in making prosthetics. This particular hybrid of a study and a review, focuses on the possibilities of improving cochlear and bionic eye prosthetics. The...
The presented route provides an efficient and highly reproducible method to obtain penultimate allyl-protected intermediates of 3-Substituted 5-Amino-1-(chloromethyl)-1,2-dihydro-3H-benzo[e]indoles (amino-CBIs). De-allylation utilizing Grubbs carbene proved...
Gold nanocarriers are fused with a ph responsive and a hydrophobic polymers to form a system that will more readily detect as well as release drugs in enviroments that are inhabited by cancerous tumors. In the body, the cancerous tumors thrive in an...
Full disclosure – I know two of the authors of this paper professionally, however this has had no effect on my review of this work – but for the sake of transparency I thought I should mention this!
First impressions:
This publication has a very compelling...

As the claim of a metal-free cross-coupling is quite sensational, the authors were fairly rigorous in their characterization of reagents and QC. However, since publication numerous questions have arisen as to possible alternate cross-coupling mechanisms,...
This paper describes the development and use of a CRISPR based diagnostic for Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). I was particularly interested in this paper because it hits all the things which my research is focused on – Mtb, diagnostics, and the practical...
I came across this article by Hutto et al. while investigating the effects of mutant rdgB gene within the PITP domain of the Drosophila genome. The rdgB protein is responsible for Ca2+ storage for use in the phototransduction cascade; however our data showed...
The premise of the article is to summarize the ways in which stimuli- responsive polymersomes are involved in the creation of nanocarriers, as well as their contribution to each nanocarrier's performance in varied environments or stimuli. Polymersomes are...
Summary
Researchers discovered a protein which triggers satellite cells to proliferate and heal. In fish with severe muscle damage, injection of NAMPT led to the regeneration of muscle and the return of normal movement. This study demonstrates that NAMPT,...
Summary:
This paper describes a novel way to measure core body temperature using a three-dimensional (3D) printed wearable “earable” smart device. The device is designed to be worn on the ear and track core body temperature from the tympanic membrane (i.e.,...
Summary:
A framework for improving knee rehabilitation and reducing ACL injury incidence and reinjury rates post anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been described. The framework encourages a global approach, whereby ‘proximal’ is not confined to...
This classic review outlines several therapeutic uses of carbon monoxide (CO). The overall language of the report is very easy to understand and read while presenting in-depth descriptions and examples when needed. This review touches on the primary pathways...
Regulatory review on status of FDA understanding of drug transporters. Suggest policies and guidance to direct the industry to advance drug development
Great paper highlighting the PK of propranolol. Went into ADME properties and expanding indications
Response letter from reader suggesting their is now clinical evidence for salicylates casuing GI mucosa erosion and eventual bleeding.
The concept of citation network analysis is not new, but it is important. In this manuscript, Dr. Leng uses Web of Science to analyze a subfield of papers about radomized controlled trials (RCTs) of coronay heart disease between 1965-1984. While this topic...
