Summary: This study investigated the mechanism underlying trastuzumab resistance in a quiescent cell population and found that the crosstalk between cytoplasmic ERa and the HER2/EGFR signaling pathway is a novel therapeutic target for HER2-positive breast cancer. Combination therapy of tamoxifen and trastuzumab may overcome trastuzumab resistance in HER2-positive breast cancer patients, providing a new treatment strategy.

Summary: HER2-positive breast cancer is a subtype of breast malignancy with aggressive behavior and high recurrence rates. The combination of trastuzumab, pertuzumab, and a taxane remains the preferred first-line therapy. Recent studies have shown that trastuzumab deruxtecan is more effective than trastuzumab emtansine as a second-line treatment. Other treatment options include T-DM1, tucatinib, trastuzumab, and capecitabine, as well as trastuzumab with different chemotherapy partners.

Summary: CDK4/6 inhibitors combined with endocrine therapy have become the foundation of treatment for breast cancer, but also increase the risk of adverse events. Approved agents in this class have similar efficacies but important differences. Personalized treatment choices and strategies to overcome resistance can minimize treatment-related toxicities and improve therapeutic efficacy.

Summary: Brain metastases are often associated with HER2+ breast cancer, and systemic therapy with trastuzumab has been the mainstay. Other HER2-targeted agents have been introduced in clinical practice, with newer agents such as neratinib, tucatinib, and trastuzumab deruxtecan showing interesting activity against brain metastases. Further research is needed to elucidate the optimal sequence of these agents and their combination with local treatment.

Summary: Margetuximab-cmkb in combination with chemotherapy was granted regular FDA approval for the treatment of HER2-positive metastatic breast cancer patients who have received two or more prior anti-HER2 regimens. The SOPHIA study demonstrated that margetuximab had a longer median progression-free survival compared to trastuzumab when both were combined with chemotherapy. Infusion-related reactions were reported as important safety signals associated with margetuximab plus chemotherapy.

Summary: This paper proposes a new strategy of optical clearing called time-dependent or temporal tissue optical clearing (TTOC) to enhance the optical imaging quality. By altering the pulse width, the absorption and scattering of light in tissue can be regulated in the TTOC technique. Experimental investigations and computational simulations were conducted to study the dependence of optical properties on pulse width in gelatin-based phantom and modeled human skin tissue. The results provide insights into the penetration depth and reflectance of light in tissue for different pulse widths.

Summary: The optical pH sensor based on smart hydrogel material was designed for microfluidic applications. The sensor made use of chitosan-TEOS interpenetrating network as a pH-sensitive component. By bonding the chitosan-TEOS-PDMS layer to a thin layer of PDMS, the sensor can be easily integrated into microfluidic chips. The thickness of the PDMS layer can be adjusted to control the sensitivity of the sensor. The sensor's response to pH changes was measured using the optical astigmatism method, and the experimental results showed its stability and sensitivity.

Summary: This study compares the performance of a nanofiber device and a resin column for antibody capture. The nanofiber device has a larger housing volume and lower binding capacity, but comparable eluate purity to the resin column. It shows high stability, can be used for multiple cycles, and maintains consistent eluate quality when scaled up. The use of a single nanofiber device can significantly reduce costs compared to a resin column, especially when the number of batches is limited.

Summary: Fed-batch cell culture processes are commonly used in biomanufacturing due to their simplicity and applicability in cGMP environments. However, the challenge lies in the changing physiochemical conditions within the bioreactor as the cell density changes. Traditional response surface models (RSMs) are commonly used for optimization but are limited by their use of time-invariant factors. Dynamic RSM (DRSM) models can predict the time-dependent impact of process inputs, allowing for optimization of process operations that change over time.

Summary: Water for injection (WFI) production in the biopharmaceutical industry consumes excessive amounts of water and energy. Recycling buffers can potentially save up to 90% of resources, but achieving the full theoretical potential is impossible when a risk-aware design is used.

Summary: In this study, heterologous expression and homologous overexpression of ABC transporter proteins AatA and MdlB were found to improve butyric acid production in C. tyrobutyricum. The overexpression of these proteins upregulated the expression levels of key enzymes in the acetate synthesis pathway and promoted the synthesis and secretion of acetic acid. Additionally, the increase in ATPase activity facilitated sugar utilization, induced extracellular secretion of acetate, and shortened fermentation periods.
