Abstract
This issue of the Biomedical Journal highlights major advancements in drug delivery, including aptamer-functionalized liposomes and nanozymes. A new biomarker combination shows promise for improved diagnosis of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Mesenchymal stem cells are suggested to mitigate inflammation in systemic lupus erythematosus, and a potential positive feedback loop driven by a prevalent mRNA modification is suggested to enhance NSCLC progression. Additional articles explore a pathological impact on autophagy leading to muscle dysfunction, the benefits of integrating an orphan drug with standard therapy for glioblastoma patients, and the influence of transcriptional super-enhancers in early-stage esophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Finally, this issue provides insights into the roles of different Blastocystis subtypes, and the use of laser light for treating infantile hemangioma.
期刊介绍：
Biomedical Journal publishes 6 peer-reviewed issues per year in all fields of clinical and biomedical sciences for an internationally diverse authorship. Unlike most open access journals, which are free to readers but not authors, Biomedical Journal does not charge for subscription, submission, processing or publication of manuscripts, nor for color reproduction of photographs.
Clinical studies, accounts of clinical trials, biomarker studies, and characterization of human pathogens are within the scope of the journal, as well as basic studies in model species such as Escherichia coli, Caenorhabditis elegans, Drosophila melanogaster, and Mus musculus revealing the function of molecules, cells, and tissues relevant for human health. However, articles on other species can be published if they contribute to our understanding of basic mechanisms of biology.
A highly-cited international editorial board assures timely publication of manuscripts. Reviews on recent progress in biomedical sciences are commissioned by the editors.
