Scientists Crack the Code of a Mysterious Ion Channel Tied to Parkinson’s Disease – Science News
Scientists have identified the role of an ion channel that plays a key part in how cells break down and recycle components, a discovery that could open the door to new treatment strategies for Parkinson’s disease. Washbowls, bathtubs, and sinks include an overflow that keeps water from spilling out. Researchers now report that cells appear […]

Spreading inflammation via the skin–joint axis – Immunology Research
Light-sheet microscopy and flow cytometry revealed that IL-23 overexpression induced robust leukocyte migration from psoriatic skin to ankle joints, at comparable levels in both the arthritis-susceptible BALB/c strain and the arthritis-resistant C57BL/6 strain. Surprisingly, myeloid cells (rather than T cells or B cells) dominated this trafficking, accounting for approximately 85% of migrated leukocytes.

A charge-reversal prodrug activated by tumor-acidity for selective cancer chemotherapy – Research
Chemotherapy remains a primary cancer treatment. However, the poor selectivity of conventional small-molecule chemotherapeutic agents often leads to severe side effects against normal cells and tissues, limiting their clinical application. To address this challenge, tumor-microenvironment-activated prodrugs represent a promising strategy for enhancing selectivity and efficacy. Herein, we developed a charge-reversal prodrug, PIX-DMMA, synthesized through the reaction between primary amino groups of pixantrone (PIX) and 2,3-dimethylmaleic anhydride (DMMA). PIX-DMMA is activated under tumor extracellular pH (∼6.5), releasing the o-PIX while simultaneously undergoing charge reversal from negative to positive, thereby enhancing cellular uptake. Drug release kinetics at pH 6.5 were verified via NMR spectroscopy. In vitro studies demonstrated that prodrug activation at pH 6.5 confers significant tumor selectivity and potent cytotoxicity toward cancer cells. Furthermore, in vivo studies in LoVo tumor-bearing mice showed significant tumor growth inhibition without significant systemic toxicity. This acid-triggered charge-reversal prodrug represents a promising strategy for selective cancer therapy.
