Pentoxifylline and Preterm Monocyte Hyperinflammation
2026-08-31
Schüller et al. developed an age-comparative whole-blood model to examine how pentoxifylline suppresses LPS-induced monocyte activation in preterm infants, term infants, and adults. The study links reduced cytokine production and phagocytosis to lower cellular and transcriptional TLR4 activity, while revealing age-dependent effects on monocyte markers and IL-10.

Sodium Selenite Suppresses Cervical Cancer Metabolism
2026-08-29
The reference study shows that sodium selenite suppresses cervical cancer growth by increasing reactive oxygen species and disrupting AKT/mTOR/HIF-1α control of glucose metabolic reprogramming. Its combination of 2-NBDG-based uptake measurements, molecular profiling, rescue experiments, and xenograft validation provides a mechanistic framework for connecting altered glucose use with tumor progression.

Synthetic DEFB1 mRNA Against Cryptosporidiosis
2026-08-28
The reference study shows that synthetic DEFB1 mRNA can transiently increase β-defensin 1 production in HCT-8 intestinal cells and reduce Cryptosporidium parvum burden by approximately 80% without detectable cytotoxicity. Its main contribution is a host-directed mRNA strategy that links rapid gene delivery with functional protection against an enteric parasite in vitro.
