Article Abstract

Fabrication of environmental sensitive and controllable drug release systems is urgently needed. In this paper, thermosensitive and magnetic response drug release systems were fabricated via layer-by-layer technique using acetylsalicylic acid (AA) intercalated ZnAl-LDH as core, poly (N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) and AA micelles as well as small size ZnAl-LDH sheets as building blocks of the shell. By forming anionic micelles, cationic PNIPAM macromolecules were sandwiched in the LDH sheets with cationic charges which provided a novel way of fabrication of drug release systems. The characteristics of the building blocks, the fabrication process and the release behaviors of the as-prepared drug release systems were characterized in detail. Due to the micro-environmental difference of AA in the core and shell of the systems, step-by-step release behaviors were observed. Also the drug release systems showed obvious temperature and magnetic field dependent responsibility. The obtained assembly is a potential drug release system.

Alzheimer's Disease (AD) is the leading cause of dementia worldwide, with significant cognitive and behavioural impairments that devastate individuals and their families. Cohort-level findings, demonstrate the broader population-level implications of Sleep and Circadian Rhythm Disruption (SCRD) in AD and underscore the need for early interventions, emphasizing the importance of timely action. However, the mechanism remains unclear.

Medications for Opioid Use Disorder in County Jails - Outcomes after Release.

N Engl J Med

September 2025

Department of Health Promotion and Policy, School of Public Health and Health Sciences, University of Massachusetts Amherst, Amherst.

Background: In 2019, seven county correctional facilities (jails) in Massachusetts initiated pilot programs to provide all Food and Drug Administration-approved medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD).

Methods: This observational study used linked state data to examine postrelease MOUD receipt, overdose, death, and reincarceration among persons with probable opioid use disorder (OUD) in carceral settings who did or did not receive MOUD from these programs from September 1, 2019, through December 31, 2020. Log-binomial and proportional-hazards models were adjusted for propensity-score weights and baseline covariates that remained imbalanced after propensity-score weighting.

Resistance-conferring mutations in the androgen receptor (AR) ligand-binding pocket (LBP) compromise the effectiveness of clinically approved orthosteric AR antagonists. Targeting the dimerization interface pocket (DIP) of AR presents a promising therapeutic approach. In this study, we report the design and optimization of -(thiazol-2-yl) furanamide derivatives as novel AR DIP antagonists, among which was the most promising candidate.

Schizophrenia is a persistent and incapacitating neuropsychiatric condition that presents considerable obstacles regarding pharmacological administration and therapeutic effectiveness. Lipidic nanocarriers, including Solid Lipid Nanoparticles (SLNs) and Nanostructured Lipid Carriers (NLCs), have emerged as effective drug delivery vehicles for enhancing the bioavailability, stability, and controlled release of antipsychotic medicines. Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs) and nanostructured lipid carriers (NLCs) have several benefits, such as improved drug loading capacity, less systemic adverse effects, and superior efficacy in traversing the blood-brain barrier compared to conventional formulations.

Spatially and temporally controlled drug delivery is an important field to address the limitations of conventional pharmaceutical administration. While many effective controlled drug delivery systems exist, the repertoire of systems that additionally present a beneficial mechanical environment to cells remains scarce. To address this, a comprehensive release study of fluorescein as a model drug, and the corticosteroid dexamethasone, from poly(-isopropylacrylamide)/polypyrrole (pNIPAM/PPy) conducting polymer hydrogels is presented within this study.
