The ex vivo biodistribution studies demonstrated that the tumor/liver ratio were 1.80 ± 0.65 and 2.09 ± 0.68 in implanted HepG2 and BEL7402 tumors respectively. Negative control and blocking experiments revealed that the radioactivity uptake in the HCC tumor was LAPTM4B protein-specific.

  Childhood cancer survival currently exceeds 80 % five years after diagnosis in high-income countries. In this study, we aimed to describe long-term trends and to investigate socioeconomic and spatial disparities in childhood cancer survival.
 
  The study included 28,073 cases recorded in the French National Registry of Childhood Cancers from 2000 to 2015. Contextual census data (deprivation indices, population density, spatial accessibility to general practitioners) were allocated to each case based on the residence at diagnosis. Overall survival (OS) and conditional 10-year OS for 5-year survivors were estimated for all cancers combined and by diagnostic group and subgroup. Comparisons were conducted by sex, age at diagnosis, period of diagnosis, and contextual indicators. Hazard ratios for death were estimated using Cox models.
 
  All cancers combined, the OS reached 82.8 % [95 % CI 82.4-83.3] at 5 years and 80.8 % [95 % CI 80.3-81.3] at 10 years. Conditional 10-year OS of 5-year survivors reached 97.5 % [95 % CI 97.3-97.7] and was higher than 95 % for all subgroups except osteosarcomas and most subgroups of the central nervous system. In addition to disparities by sex, age at diagnosis, and period of diagnosis, we observed a slight decrease in survival for cases living in the most deprived areas at diagnosis, not consistent across diagnostic groups.
 
  Our results confirm the high 5-year survival for childhood cancer and show an excellent 10-year conditional survival of 5-year survivors. Additional individual data are needed to clarify the factors underlying the slight decrease in childhood cancer survival observed in the most deprived areas.

The patients with TB are more vulnerable to secondary infections and other health complications, hence, they are usually administered a cocktail of drugs. This increases the likelihood of drug-drug interactions (DDIs). INH is clinically proven to interact with drugs like phenytoin, carbamazepine, diazepam, triazolam, acetaminophen, etc. Most of such clinical observations have been supported by in vitro inhibition studies involving INH and cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzymes. A few published in vitro studies have explored the CYP2E1 inhibition potential of INH to explain its interactions with acetaminophen and other CY2E1 substrates, such as chlorzoxazone, but none of them were able to demonstrate any significant inhibition of the enzyme by the drug. It was reported that metabolites of INH, such as acetylhydrazine and hydrazine, were bioactivated by CYP2E1, highlighting that perhaps the drug metabolites were responsible for the mechanism based inhibition (MBI) of the enzyme. Therefore, the purpose of this investigation was to explore CYP2E1 enzyme inhibition potential of INH and its four major metabolites, viz., acetylisoniazid, isonicotinic acid, acetylhydrazine and hydrazine, using human liver microsomes (HLM). Additionally, we determined the fraction unbound in microsomal incubation (fumic) for all the five compounds using equilibrium dialysis assay. We observed that INH and its metabolites had lower propensity for microsomal binding, and the metabolites also lacked the potential to inhibit CYP2E1 enzyme, either by direct inhibition or through MBI. This suggests involvement of some other mechanism to explain interactions of INH with CY2E1 substrates, signifying need of further exploration.Irisflorentin is one of the bioactive constituents from the root of Belamcanda chinensis (L.) DC, which displayed anti-inflammatory and anti-tumor activities. In this work, the in vitro metabolism of irisflorentin was investigated using liver microsomes and hepatocytes. The metabolites were identified by ultra-high performance liquid chromatography combined with quadrupole/orbitrap tandem mass spectrometry. Under the current conditions, a total of 11 metabolites were detected and structurally identified according to accurate masses, fragment ions and retention times. Metabolite M10, identified as 6,7-dihydroxy-5,3',4',5'-tetramethoxy isoflavone, was biosynthesized and unambiguously characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The metabolic pathways of irisflorentin included oxidation, demethylation and glucuronidation. M10 was the most abundant metabolite in all tested species. Further phenotyping studies revealed that α-naphthoflavone and ketoconazole displayed significant inhibitory effect on the formation of M10. Cytochrome P450 (CYP) 1A2 and 3A4 were the major enzymes responsible for the formation of M10 by using individual recombinant human CYP450 enzymes. For the first time the current study provides an overview of the in vitro metabolic fates of irisflorentin, which is helpful for us to predict the human metabolism and the potential drug-drug interactions caused by irisflorentin.The development of antifouling biosensors capable of detecting biomarkers at low concentrations in complex bio-fluids with many interference components is of great importance in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases. Certain zwitterionic peptides composed of natural L-amino acids have been used for the construction of low fouling biosensors and demonstrated excellent antifouling performances, but they are prone to enzymatic degradation in biological media, such as serum that contains a variety of enzymes. In this work, a novel antifouling peptide with the sequence of cppPPEKEKEkek was designed, and three unnatural D-amino acids were set at both ends of the peptide to enhance its tolerance to enzymatic degradation. An electrochemical biosensor was constructed by coupling the antifouling peptide with a conducting polymer polyaniline (PANI) to achieve accurate detection of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) in clinical samples. Owing to the presence of the designed peptide with partial D-amino acids (pD-peptide), the biosensing interface showed significantly high antifouling performance and enhanced stability in human serum.
