Design and validation of a GMP-compliant manufacturing platform of extracellular vesicles from mesenchymal stromal cells

There is growing interest in mesenchymal stromal cell-derived extracellular vesicles (MSC-EVs) as key components in the development of next-generation regenerative cell-free therapies; however, their clinical translation remains limited by a lack of validated clinical-grade manuf...

Radiomics and artificial intelligence in pituitary adenomas (PitNETs): from imaging biomarkers to clinical translation

Abstract Pituitary neuroendocrine tumors (PitNETs) are common intracranial neoplasms with heterogeneous hormonal activity, invasiveness, and treatment response. Conventional MRI is central to diagnosis, but is limited in quantifying tumor heterogeneity and predicting clinically r...

Incidence, Causes, and Outcomes of Conversion to Open Surgery During Minimally Invasive Left Pancreatectomy: A Prospective Multicenter Study

ABSTRACT Background Minimally invasive left pancreatectomy (MILP) has become the preferred approach to treat lesions of the pancreatic body and tail. However, the procedure may require conversion to open surgery, with reported conversion rates varying widely in the literature. Th...

Anticancer effects of an XPO1 inhibitor (selinexor) with sotorasib following omeprazole preconditioning in KRAS G12C-mutant non-small cell lung cancer cells in vitro and in a mouse tumor xenograft

BACKGROUND: KRAS G12C-mutant advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is currently treated with KRAS G12C covalent inhibitors, such as sotorasib, or RAS (ON) G12-selective inhibitors; however, response rates and progression-free survival remain limited, with recurrence occurri...

Elucidating the mechanism underlying incomplete immune recovery in people living with HIV through CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T cell multi-omics

A subset of people living with HIV (PLHIV), known as immunological non-responders (INR), fails to achieve adequate CD4⁺ T cell recovery despite viral suppression with antiretroviral therapy (ART). These individuals face an increased risk of adverse clinical outcomes. This study a...
