Abstrakt: 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.
