The molecules for inducing spontaneous calcification of tumor cells includes at least two basic units, one of the at least two basic units is a targeting functional unit that targets a molecular fragment of a functional region in the tumor cells/tissues/microenvironments, and the other basic unit is a functional unit for inducing calcification; or molecules for inducing spontaneous calcification of tumor cells comprise at least one basic unit that is both a targeting functional unit and a calcification-inducing functional unit. After calcification of tumor cells occurs, calcium salt deposition on the cell surface will affect metabolism and other physiological processes in tumor cells, leading to apoptosis induction and the suppression of tumor growth. Additionally, after calcification, tumor cells and tissues exhibit improved contrast in clinical images, thereby facilitating early and precise diagnosis of tumor lesions.

  • Publication number: 20240058377
    Abstract: A method of plasmonic enhanced magnetic nanoparticles hyperthermia (PE-MNH) of M@X core/shell nanoparticles using laser energy. Up on laser exposure of the nanoparticles in solution, the plasmonic shell will heat up and isolate each particle in their own hydrodynamic shell that lead to reducing the inter-particle interaction of the magnetic nanoparticles. This will lead to disaggregated nanoparticle with high dispersity, free movement and rotation in solution as well as giant increase in SAR when the alternating magnetic field within clinical safety limits is applied. Application of this approach has the potential to revolutionize the current treatment regimens by replacing them with plasmonic enhanced magnetic nanoparticles hyperthermia therapy that is more effective, less toxic, and impact survival.

  • Publication number: 20240058387
    Abstract: A culture medium composition for expanding hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and maintaining self-renewal capacity and differentiation potential of HSCs, a cell population and an application thereof. The culture medium composition comprises a hematopoietic stem cell medium and a small molecule inhibitor of a PDGFR target. The inhibitor of PDGFR can significantly expand HSCs during in-vitro culture, maintaining a high proportion of HSCs with self-renewal capacity, achieving in-vitro expansion of HSCs while maintaining a relatively high proportion of cells with sternness.

  • Publication number: 20240058390
    Abstract: The invention relates to the discovery of a previously unknown population of adipocytes marked by active intracellular Wnt/?-catenin signaling. The present invention provides methods of making populations of adipocytes in which the proportion of these “Wnt+ adipocytes” is much higher than those in naturally occurring populations. Wnt+ adipocytes can be used to improve blood glucose control and exosomes secreted by Wnt+ adipocytes can be administered to reduce blood glucose levels in subjects in need thereof.
