On October 22, the Shandong Provincial Government Information Office held a press conference to introduce the province’s efforts in enhancing the integration of healthcare and elderly care, as well as promoting healthy aging. It was reported that Shandong currently has a sufficient supply of influenza vaccines, having completed 2.67 million doses of vaccinations, with elderly individuals accounting for 54.57% of those vaccinated. As the weather turns colder, infectious diseases such as influenza and pneumonia enter their peak season, and the elderly are a major susceptible group. It was noted that over 3,200 medical institutions in Shandong have activated a real-time monitoring and reporting network for infectious diseases, focusing particularly on the incidence of diseases among the elderly and other key populations. Vaccination against influenza and pneumonia not only reduces infection risks but also effectively lowers the incidence of severe cases, making it one of the primary measures for the prevention ...

Writing | My Best Friend Old Red Riding Hood Sarcoma is a rare heterogeneous stromal tumor. They mainly occur in bones and soft tissues, and have a particularly severe impact on young patients [1-3]. In the United States, about 13000 cases of soft tissue sarcoma and 4000 cases of osteosarcoma are diagnosed every year. Although the incidence rate is very low, the mortality rate is still high. For example, osteosarcoma is the third leading cause of cancer death in patients under the age of 20. The treatment plan varies depending on the subtype and stage of the disease, including surgical resection, chemotherapy, targeted systemic therapy, and in some cases, radiation therapy [4,5]. Although significant progress has been made in specific subtypes, current treatment methods rarely cure them. The overall 5-year survival rate for soft tissue sarcoma is 65%, and the overall 5-year survival rate for bone cancer is 50% -60% ...
Writing | Snow Moon G protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) guide cellular responses to environmental signals, including hormones, neurotransmitters, and chemokines. This process is achieved through a complex biochemical cycle mediated by heterotrimeric G protein. After GPCR binds to the ligand, the G α subunit binds to GTP, becomes active, and separates from the G β – γ complex and GPCR. The separated G α – guanosine triphosphate (GTP) and free G β – γ initiate downstream signaling, including the generation of second messengers, biochemical interactions, and ion channel changes. The GTPase activity of G α hydrolyzes GTP to guanosine diphosphate (GDP), thereby terminating signal transduction and allowing Gabg to reassemble with GPCRs, enabling cells to respond to reactivation of GPCRs. In the G α protein family, the Gai/o family includes inhibitory subtypes that regulate biological responses by inhibiting the production of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) by adenyl cyclase AC. AC ...
“CRISPR gives way, RNA editing therapies are going to speed up.” This is the title of an article published in “Nauter” in February this year (“Move over, CRISPR: RNA-editing therapies pick up steam”). RNA editing technology, which is coming to the fore, is seen as having the potential to surpass CRISPR due to its safer and more flexible characteristics. The technology is in its infancy, and the bets of MNCs such as Eli Lilly and GSK have once pushed its popularity to a climax. However, Wave, an RNA editing pioneer founded in 2012, took more than 10 years to push its first RNA editing project WVE-006 into clinical trials. During this period, due to the clinical failure of other nucleic acid drugs, Wave’s stock price fell from a high of US$56 per share to around US$1 per share, and market expectations were no longer there. After years of silence, a ...
On October 18, the FDA announced the approval of the Claudin18.2 monoclonal antibody Vyloy (zolbetuximab) for marketing, and will use it as the first-line treatment for adult patients with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic gastric cancer with Claudin18.2-positive tumors, and HER2-negative gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma. With the announcement of this good news, zolbetuximab officially became the first anti-Claudin18.2 drug approved by the United States. This means that Astellas has taken the lead in this hot target. In the past few years, Claudin18.2 has been a hot target in the field of oncology, attracting the interest of giants such as AstraZeneca, Merck, and Moderna. Of course, the entrants also include many domestic pharmaceutical companies. However, in the face of many entrants, Astellas’s “defending” ability has also been extremely demanding. At present, it may not be easy for it to maintain its leading position. Zolbetuximab has always attracted much attention, and the core ...
Protecting the bladder is definitely a topic worth paying attention to for pharmaceutical companies. The core reason is that there are many patients who face the decision of whether to keep their bladders. Bladder cancer is the tenth most common cancer in the world, with more than 614,000 new cases of bladder cancer in 2022. About 70% of patients are initially diagnosed with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), corresponding to a population of more than 400,000. According to the severity, NMIBC can be divided into carcinoma in situ (CIS) that only exists on the surface of the bladder, non-invasive papillary carcinoma (Ta), and tumors that invade the lamina propria (T1). Fortunately, bladder cancer has obvious early symptoms, which facilitates early detection and early treatment. In the past few decades, the standard treatment for NMIBC has been transurethral resection of bladder tumors (TURBT) plus postoperative adjuvant intravesical instillation of BCG. Unfortunately, ...
