Check out this breakthrough: engineered zwitterionic polycarboxybetaine targets brain metastases effectively, minimizing systemic effects and enhancing drug delivery! PMID:42425968, Nat Commun 2026, @NatureComms https://doi.org/10.1038/s41467-026-74888-y #Medsky #Pharmsky #RNA #ASHG #ESHG 🧪
Engineered zwitterion-nanodelivery for precision targeting of brain metastases | Nature Communications
The central nervous system is a critical reservoir for cancer metastasis, underscoring the urgent need for effective strategies for targeted drug delivery that minimize systemic side effects. Here, we present a zwitterionic polycarboxybetaine (PCB) designed to achieve selective accumulation within the tumor vasculature of brain metastases, thereby facilitating the rapid release of therapeutics without relying on external stimuli in preclinical models. PCB selectively targets the betaine-γ-aminobutyric acid transporter 1 (BGT1) at the blood-brain-tumor barrier (BBTB), enabling localized enrichment of nanoparticles within the tumor vasculature. The intrinsic mechanical flexibility of PCB activates the Piezo1 ion channel in endothelial cells, resulting in calcium ion influx and enhanced calpain activity, which together facilitate the degradation of VE-cadherin. The burst-release mechanism improves vascular permeability and compromises the integrity of the tumor vascular barrier, allowing

A older relative who had previously had kidney cancer 10 years ago just found out they have metastases in brain and lung. A few weeks from no symptoms to nearly paralyzed.

Cancer sucks.

Maybe the Democrats learned from the last round that "let bygones be bygones" is not a healing approach: the cancer just goes into hiding and metastases immediately when given the smallest chance.

Removing neutrophils reduced lung metastases in mice. The decline came with fewer “hybrid” cancer cells—the intermediate state most likely to spread. doi.org/hcq385
Bad neighbors: How immune cells help cancer cells get ready to spread
Most cancer deaths are not caused by the original tumor, but by metastases, which form when cancer cells leave the original tumor and spread to other organs.

Combined vs Staged Resection for Rectal Cancer Liver Metastases
Combined and staged surgery had similar complication rates and survival in a French national cohort. Severe complications occurred in 39.7% of combined and 45.3% of staged patients (p = 0.20). Median overall survival was 52.4 months with combined surgery and 57.3 months with staged surgery (p = 0.30

(et Onfray est donc chez bollo ! aaahahahha.... drôle. et sans surprise. onfray, la fulgurante dégénérescence incarnée..)
ERRATUM

Nous republions la version corrigée de cette infographie, parue dans le rapport "Le système Bolloré, de la prédation financière à la croisade politique", suite à une erreur concernant l'appartenance du média Franc-Tireur à la galaxie Bolloré.
