Glial cells are thought to supply energy for neurotransmission by increasing nonoxidative glycolysis; however, oxidative metabolism in glia may also contribute increased brain activity. To study glial contribution cerebral the unanesthetized state, we measured neuronal and metabolic fluxes awake rat using a double isotopic-labeling technique two-compartment mathematical model of neurotransmitter metabolism. Rats (n = 23) were infused simultaneously with 14C-bicarbonate [1-13C]glucose up 1...

Currently, there is no curative treatment for inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), which has an increased risk of colitis-associated cancer. Corticosteroids are the main clinical IBD therapeutics but have significant side effects. Even heavy corticosteroid use can result in failure may lead to resective surgery. In this study, we designed one type new drug-delivery system (DDS) delivering dexamethasone (DEX), anti-inflammation corticosteroid, therapy. This DDS was screened by...

Abstract Self‐assembled supramolecular nanoparticles have remarkable benefits in bioimaging and drug delivery. Here it is first reported that polyphenol poloxamer self‐assemble (PPNPs). PPNPs are fabricated by multivalent hydrogen bonding between tannic acid Pluronic F‐127 together with hydrophobic interactions of poly(propylene oxide) chains, to be applied tumor near‐infrared fluorescence (NIRF) imaging positron emission tomography (PET) imaging. With fluorescent dyes such as IR780...

Various functional nanomaterials have been fabricated as diagnostic and therapeutic nanomedicines; however, the nanoparticles closely interact with proteins when immersed in biological fluids, forming a "protein corona" that critically alters identity of nanomedicine. Here, we developed robust strategy to construct theranostic nanoprobes based on protein-corona-coated Fe3O4 biomineralization corona. Water-soluble carboxylic were prepared by treating oleate-capped Lemieux–von Rudloff reagent....

A novel immune checkpoint, FGL1, is a potentially viable target for tumor immunotherapy. The development of FGL1-targeted PET probes could provide significant insights into the system's status and evaluation treatment efficacy. ClusPro 2.0 server was used to analyze interaction between FGL1 LAG3, candidate peptides were identified by using Rosetta peptide derivate protocol. Three targeting named FGLP21, FGLP22, FGLP23, with simulated affinity −9.56, −8.55, −8.71 kcal/mol, respectively,...

The mitochondrial transporter, the aspartate/glutamate carrier (AGC), is a necessary component of malate/aspartate cycle, which promotes transfer into mitochondria reducing equivalents generated in cytosol during glycolysis. Without cytosolic mitochondria, neither glucose nor lactate can be completely oxidized. In present study, immunohistochemistry was used to demonstrate absence AGC from retinal glia (Müller cells), but its presence neurons and photoreceptor cells. To determine influence...
