Breast cancer (BC) comprises a diverse spectrum of diseases featuring distinct presentation, morphological, biological, and clinical phenotypes. BC behaviour and response to therapy also vary widely. Current evidence indicates that traditional prognostic and predictive classification systems are insufficient to reflect the biological and clinical heterogeneity of BC. Advancements in high-throughput molecular techniques and bioinformatics have contributed to the improved understanding of BC biology, refinement of molecular taxonomies and the development of novel prognostic and predictive molecular assays. Molecular testing has also become increasingly important in the diagnosis and treatment of BC in the era of precision medicine. Despite the enormous amount of research work to develop and refine BC molecular prognostic and predictive assays, it is still in evolution and proper incorporation of these molecular tests into clinical practice to guide patient's management remains a challenge. With the increasing use of more sophisticated high throughput molecular techniques, large amounts of data will continue to emerge, which could potentially lead to identification of novel therapeutic targets and allow more precise classification systems that can accurately predict outcome and response to therapy. In this review, we provide an update on the molecular classification of BC and molecular prognostic assays. Companion diagnostics, contribution of massive parallel sequencing and the use of liquid biopsy are also highlighted. Native low-density lipoproteins (LDL) naturally accumulate at atherosclerotic lesions and are thought to be among the main drivers of atherosclerosis progression. Numerous nanoparticular systems making use of recombinant lipoproteins have been developed for targeting atherosclerotic plaque. These innovative formulations often require complicated purification and synthesis procedures which limit their eventual translation to the clinics. Recently, squalenoylation has appeared as a simple and efficient technique for targeting agents to endogenous lipoproteins through a bioconjugation approach. In this study, we have developed a fluorescent squalene bioconjugate to evaluate the biodistribution of squalene-based nanoparticles in an ApoE-/- model of atherosclerosis. By accumulating in LDL endogenous nanoparticles, the squalene bioconjugation could serve as an efficient targeting platform for atherosclerosis. Indeed, in this proof of concept, we show that our squalene-rhodamine (SQRho) nanoparticles, could accumulate in the aortas of atherosclerotic animals. Histological evaluation confirmed the presence of atherosclerotic lesions and the co-localization of SQRho bioconjugates at the lesion sites. In the last decade 3D printing (3DP) technology has gained increasing interest in the pharmaceutical field addressing several novel challenges such as on-demand manufacturing at the point of need, customization of drug release profiles and patient-specific solutions as well as combinations of several APIs in one dosage form. Therefore, 3DP can become a new and promising path to drug product development and manufacturing, able to support specific therapies and improve compliance, safety and effectiveness. The aim of this work was to partially coat tablets with a glyceride, namely Precirol ATO 5 using a semi-solids 3D printer as an approach for tuning the release of two Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (APIs), the hydrophilic methyl-levodopa hydrochloride (Melevodopa) and the lipophilic Acyclovir. Various parameters of the 3DP coating process were purposefully modified using experimental design techniques in order to customize the selected APIs release profile, without affecting the core composition of the formulation. The percentage of the tablet surface coated, the number of coating layers as well as the coated sides of the tablet where the parameters which controlled the release profile for both APIs. Different dissolution profiles have been achieved by tuning these simple parameters, which revealed a non-Fickian release mechanism regardless of the API. Ketamine in sub-anaesthetic doses is an analgesic adjuvant with a morphine-sparing effect. Co-administration of a strong opioid with an analgesic adjuvant such as ketamine is a potential treatment option, especially for patients with cancer-related pain. A limitation of ketamine is its short in vivo elimination half-life.

Ketamine-encapsulated single polymer PEG-PLGA nanoparticles and double polymer PEG-PLGA/shellac (SH) nanoparticles with a high drug loading of 41.8% (drug weight/the total weight of drug-loaded nanoparticles) were prepared using a new sequential nanoprecipitation method. These drug-loaded nanoparticles exhibited a sustained-release profile for up to 21&nbsp;days in vitro and for more than 5&nbsp;days after intravenous injection in mice. Our study demonstrates that high drug loading and a sustained release profile can be achieved with ketamine-loaded PEG-PLGA nanoparticles prepared using this new nanoprecipitation method. AIM To investigate the effects of linagliptin treatment on hepatic energy metabolism and ER stress in high-fat-fed C57BL/6 mice. METHODS Forty male C57BL/6 mice, three months of age, received a control diet (C, 10% of lipids as energy, n&nbsp;=&nbsp;20) or high-fat diet (HF, 50% of lipids as energy, n&nbsp;=&nbsp;20) for 10 weeks. The groups were randomly subdivided into four groups to receive linagliptin, for five&nbsp;weeks, at a dose of 30&nbsp;mg/kg/day added to the diets C, C-L, HF, and HF-L groups. RESULTS The HF group showed higher body mass, total and hepatic cholesterol levels and total and hepatic triacylglycerol levels than the C group, all of which were significantly diminished by linagliptin in the HF-L group. The HF group had higher hepatic steatosis than the C group, whereas linagliptin markedly reduced the hepatic steatosis (less 52%, P&nbsp; less then &nbsp;0.001). The expression of Sirt1 and Pgc1a was more significant in the HF-L group than in the HF group. Linagliptin also elicited enhanced GLP-1 concentrations and a reduction in the expression of the lipogenic genes Fas and Srebp1c.
