The aim of this work was to study the lymphatic absorption characteristics of gastric hydrolysates and intestinal hydrolysates of eicosapentaenoic acid-enriched phosphoethanolamine plasmalogen (EPA-pPE) with focusing on the fate of EPA and vinyl ether bonds in the lymph fluid using lymphatic intubation and lipidomics. The results showed that the EPA peak occurred earlier in the gastric (1.5 h) and intestinal (1 h) hydrolysates than in the EPA-pPE group (3 h) with EPA peak content being 2.03 and 1.46 times higher, suggesting pre-hydrolysis contributed to lymphatic absorption. Further, duodenal injection of gastric hydrolysates sn2 EPA-lysoPE produced higher levels of EPA-LPC, PC, PE, and PG. Meanwhile, intestinal hydrolysates free EPA and sn1 lyso-pPE enriched the sn1 + 2 + 3 TG (20:5_20:5_20:5) and increased the vinyl ether bond-containing lipids, such as PE (18:0p_18:0) and PE (18:0p_20:4). This study provides insight into dietary molecular structures of EPA and plasmalogen.

Subcutaneous administration is widely used as a clinical administration route for Fc-fusion proteins. However, predicting bioavailability (BA) in humans after subcutaneous administration is challenging due to multiple factors involved in the absorption process. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of degradation on the BA of Fc-fusion proteins.

Pressure ulcers, resulting from prolonged external pressure or shear forces on skin and underlying tissues over bony prominences, lead to tissue ischemia and impaired lymphatic drainage. Without timely intervention, these wounds can progress to severe complications including cellulitis, chronic infections, and osteomyelitis. In this study, we developed a chitosan/sodium β-glycerophosphate/gelatin (CS/β-GP/GEL) thermosensitive hydrogel system to enhance the therapeutic efficacy of adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cells (ADSCs) in pressure ulcer healing.

Introduction: Osteoporosis (OP) is a prevalent condition in postmenopausal women, marked by reduced bone density and an increased risk of fractures. Raloxifene (RLX), a selective estrogen receptor modulator (SERM), is the only drug approved for the management of OP in this patient population. RLX works by mimicking estrogen's effects on bone, reducing bone resorption and thereby increasing bone mineral density.

Multiple peaking in pharmacokinetics refers to the occurrence of two or more peaks of drug plasma concentrations following a single dose administration. It complicates interpretation of pharmacokinetics parameters and influences clinical decision-making regarding drug efficacy and bioequivalence. This review re-examines and extends an earlier seminal review on the physicochemical and formulation-related causes and physiological mechanisms of multiple peaking.

Foot-and-mouth disease (FMD), the "Risk Group 4" animal pathogen, causes devastating economic losses world over. The mechanism of the disease process is still not fully explored despite extensive research work going on. The present work highlights the intestinal pathology with mucin gene expression in 41 calves died from FMD virus infection in two separate outbreaks.
