Rationale: To meet the need of long-acting analgesia in postoperative pain management, slow-releasing formulations of local anesthetics (LAs) have been extensively investigated. However, challenges still remain in obtaining such formulations in a facile and cost-effective way, and a mechanism for controlling the release rate to achieve an optimal duration is still missing. Methods: In this study, nanosheets formed by a self-assembling peptide were used to encapsulate ropivacaine in a soft-coating manner. By adjusting the ratio between the peptide and ropivacaine, ropivacaine particles with different....
Aim: To elucidate dynamics and functions in colonic macrophage subsets, and their regulation by Bifidobacterium breve (B. breve) and its associated metabolites in the initiation of colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC). Methods: Azoxymethane (AOM) and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) were used to create a CAC model. The tumor-suppressive effect of B. breve and variations of macrophage subsets were evaluated. Intestinal macrophages were ablated to determine their role in the protective effects of B. breve. Efficacious molecules produced by B. breve were identified by non-targeted and targeted liquid....
