RESUMO
ABSTRACT: Glucocorticoids are key components of the standard-of-care treatment regimens for B-cell malignancy. However, systemic glucocorticoid treatment is associated with several adverse events. ABBV-319 is a CD19-targeting antibody-drug conjugate engineered to reduce glucocorticoid-associated toxicities while possessing 3 distinct mechanisms of action (MOA) to increase therapeutic efficacy: (1) antibody-mediated delivery of a glucocorticoid receptor modulator (GRM) payload to activate apoptosis, (2) inhibition of CD19 signaling, and (3) enhanced fragment crystallizable (Fc)-mediated effector function via afucosylation of the antibody backbone. ABBV-319 elicited potent GRM-driven antitumor activity against multiple malignant B-cell lines in vitro, as well as in cell line-derived xenografts and patient-derived xenografts (PDXs) in vivo. Remarkably, a single dose of ABBV-319 induced sustained tumor regression and enhanced antitumor activity compared with repeated dosing of systemic prednisolone at the maximum tolerated dose in mice. The unconjugated CD19 monoclonal antibody (mAb) also displayed antiproliferative activity in a subset of B-cell lymphoma cell lines through the inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase signaling. Moreover, afucosylation of CD19 mAb enhanced Fc-mediated antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. Notably, ABBV-319 displayed superior efficacy compared with afucosylated CD19 mAb in human CD34+ peripheral blood mononuclear cell-engrafted NSG-Tg(Hu-IL15) transgenic mice, demonstrating enhanced antitumor activity when multiple MOAs are enabled. ABBV-319 also showed durable antitumor activity across multiple B-cell lymphoma PDX models, including nongerminal center B-cell diffuse large B-cell lymphoma and relapsed lymphoma after R-CHOP treatment. Collectively, these data support the ongoing evaluation of ABBV-319 in a phase 1 clinical trial.

COVID-19 is not only associated with substantial acute liver and kidney injuries, but also with an elevated risk of post-acute sequelae involving the kidney and liver system. We aimed to investigate whether COVID-19 exposure increases the long-term risk of kidney and liver disease, and what are the magnitudes of these associations. We searched PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, and the Living Overview of the Evidence COVID-19 Repository for cohort studies estimating the association between COVID-19 and kidney and liver outcomes. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed to combine the results of the included studies. We assessed the certainty of the evidence using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evaluation approach. Fifteen cohort studies with more than 32 million participants were included in the systematic review COVID-19 was associated with a 35% greater risk of kidney diseases (10 more per 1000 persons; low certainty evidence) and 54% greater risk of liver disease (3 more per 1000 persons; low certainty evidence). The absolute increases due to COVID-19 for acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease, and liver test abnormality were 3, 8, and 3 per 1000 persons, respectively. Subgroup analyses found no differences between different type of kidney and liver diseases. The findings provide further evidence for the association between COVID-19 and incident kidney and liver conditions. The absolute magnitude of the effect of COVID-19 on kidney and liver outcomes was, however, relatively small.

Polar stationary phases were prepared by grafting hydrophilic acrylamide (Am) polymer brushes with post modification of carbon dots (CDs) and silicon dots (SiDs) onto SiO2 particles. The prepared stationary phases, SiO2-PAm-CDs, SiO2-PAm-CDs/SiDs, and SiO2-PAm-SiDs, were packed as chromatographic columns, respectively. Using nucleic bases, organic acids, and ß-agonists as target substances to investigate the influence of chromatographic conditions on retention and separation, the packed columns showed the partitioning and adsorption of mixed retention behavior in hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography mode and successfully separated the polar compounds. Most importantly, under per aqueous liquid chromatography mode (using 100% water as mobile phase), those columns still had good separation ability toward nucleic bases, ß-agonist, and organic acids. Because AM is a temperature-sensitive monomer, the resulting van't Hoff curves exhibited a nonlinear relationship, having temperature-responsive chromatographic characteristic under pure water separation. Hence, building on temperature-sensitive characteristics and pure water of separation conditions, the separation selectivity toward hydrophilic compounds greatly improved. Compared with the commercial hydrophilic columns, the efficiency of our developed column had the superior ability in separation and detection of betaine in Goji berry with the enhanced resolution achieved in the proposed green separation method (just using pure water as mobile phase).
RESUMO
The sensitivity and accuracy of fluorescence probes for biological samples are affected by not only interfering molecule compounds but also the nonspecific adsorption of proteins and other macromolecules. Herein, fluorescence probe based on zwitterionic sulfobetaine methacrylate polymer (PSBMA) as an antibiofouling layer and amino boric acid carbon dots encapsulated in the metal-organic framework UiO-66-NH2 (UiO-66-NH2/BN-CDs) as a target recognition site was designed for the detection of baicalin (BAI). Owing to the introduction of BN-CDs into UiO-66-NH2 with high specific surface area, the prepared UiO-66-NH2/BN-CDs@PSBMA probe exhibited a high adsorption capacity of 78.9 mg g-1, while presented fluorescence enhancing and superior fluorescence selectivity to BAI at excitation and emission wavelengths of 400 and 425 nm, respectively. Connecting PSBMA with good hydrophilicity to UiO-66-NH2, resulted in an anti-protein capacity of over 96.3 %, effectively inhibiting protein interference with the fluorescence signal. By virtue of its good antibiofouling and recognizing capacities, the fluorescence probe exhibited a satisfactory detection range of 10-80 nmol L-1, with a fairly low detection limit of 0.0064 µmol L-1. Using the method to detect BAI in Goji berry, Sophora and Yinhuang oral solution, demonstrating its potential for the accurate and quantitative detection of BAI in complex biological samples.

A method based on novel restricted access materials (RAMs) for the determination of neonicotinoid pesticides in Goji samples using offline and online solid phase extraction (SPE) coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (LC). RAMs were synthesized using poly(chloromethylstyrene-co-divinylbenzene) (PVBC/DVB) microspheres as substrate, styrene (St) and n-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) were first copolymerized on the interior to construct adsorption sites, and sulfobetaine methacrylate (SBMA) was then polymerized on the exterior to form exclusion sites via two-step surface initiated-atom transfer polymerization. The prepared PVBC/DVB@poly(St-co-NVP)@poly(SBMA) RAMs could efficiently extract neonicotinoid pesticides and automatically exclude proteins. Under the optimized conditions, the developed methods of offline (magnetic SPE and SPE column) and online extraction coupled with LC both using PVBC/DVB@poly(St-co-NVP)@poly(SBMA) RAMs as the extractant, exhibit a wide linearity, low limits of detection and limit of quantification and good inter-day and intra-day precision with satisfactory recoveries. Among these methods, online extraction coupled with LC based on novel RAMs exhibits clear advantages for the determination of neonicotinoid pesticides in Goji samples has clear advantages, such as simple operation by direct injection, short extraction times, and high accuracy with less human error.

The ultrasensitive recognition of biomarkers plays a crucial role in the precise diagnosis of diseases. Graphene-based field-effect transistors (GFET) are considered the most promising devices among the next generation of biosensors. GFET biosensors possess distinct advantages, including label-free, ease of integration and operation, and the ability to directly detect biomarkers in liquid environments. This review summarized recent advances in GFET biosensors for biomarker detection, with a focus on interface functionalization. Various sensitivity-enhancing strategies have been overviewed for GFET biosensors, from the perspective of optimizing graphene synthesis and transfer methods, refinement of surface functionalization strategies for the channel layer and gate electrode, design of biorecognition elements and reduction of nonspecific adsorption. Further, this review extensively explores GFET biosensors functionalized with antibodies, aptamers, and enzymes. It delves into sensitivity-enhancing strategies employed in the detection of biomarkers for various diseases (such as cancer, cardiovascular diseases, neurodegenerative disorders, infectious viruses, etc.) along with their application in integrated microfluidic systems. Finally, the issues and challenges in strategies for the modulation of biosensing interfaces are faced by GFET biosensors in detecting biomarkers.

Importance: Large language models (LLMs) may facilitate the labor-intensive process of systematic reviews. However, the exact methods and reliability remain uncertain. Objective: To explore the feasibility and reliability of using LLMs to assess risk of bias (ROB) in randomized clinical trials (RCTs). Design, Setting, and Participants: A survey study was conducted between August 10, 2023, and October 30, 2023. Thirty RCTs were selected from published systematic reviews. Main Outcomes and Measures: A structured prompt was developed to guide ChatGPT (LLM 1) and Claude (LLM 2) in assessing the ROB in these RCTs using a modified version of the Cochrane ROB tool developed by the CLARITY group at McMaster University. Each RCT was assessed twice by both models, and the results were documented. The results were compared with an assessment by 3 experts, which was considered a criterion standard. Correct assessment rates, sensitivity, specificity, and F1 scores were calculated to reflect accuracy, both overall and for each domain of the Cochrane ROB tool; consistent assessment rates and Cohen κ were calculated to gauge consistency; and assessment time was calculated to measure efficiency. Performance between the 2 models was compared using risk differences. Results: Both models demonstrated high correct assessment rates. LLM 1 reached a mean correct assessment rate of 84.5% (95% CI, 81.5%-87.3%), and LLM 2 reached a significantly higher rate of 89.5% (95% CI, 87.0%-91.8%). The risk difference between the 2 models was 0.05 (95% CI, 0.01-0.09). In most domains, domain-specific correct rates were around 80% to 90%; however, sensitivity below 0.80 was observed in domains 1 (random sequence generation), 2 (allocation concealment), and 6 (other concerns). Domains 4 (missing outcome data), 5 (selective outcome reporting), and 6 had F1 scores below 0.50. The consistent rates between the 2 assessments were 84.0% for LLM 1 and 87.3% for LLM 2. LLM 1's κ exceeded 0.80 in 7 and LLM 2's in 8 domains. The mean (SD) time needed for assessment was 77 (16) seconds for LLM 1 and 53 (12) seconds for LLM 2. Conclusions: In this survey study of applying LLMs for ROB assessment, LLM 1 and LLM 2 demonstrated substantial accuracy and consistency in evaluating RCTs, suggesting their potential as supportive tools in systematic review processes.
