Abstract
For decades, nanomedicines have been reported as a potential means to overcome the limitations of conventional drug delivery systems by reducing side effects, toxicity and the non-ideal pharmacokinetic behaviour typically exhibited by small molecule drugs. However, upon administration many nanoparticles prompt induction of host inflammatory responses due to recognition and uptake by macrophages, eliminating up to 95% of the administered dose. While significant advances in nanoparticle engineering and consequent therapeutic efficacy have been made, it is becoming clear that nanoparticle recognition by the mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) poses an impassable junction in the current framework of nanoparticle development. Hence, this has negative consequences on the clinical translation of nanotechnology with respect to therapeutic efficacy, systemic toxicity and economic benefit. In order to improve the translation of nanomedicines from bench-to-bedside, there is a requirement to either modify nanomedicines in terms of how they interact with intrinsic processes in the body, or modulate the body to be more accommodating for nanomedicine treatments. Here we provide an overview of the current standard for design elements of nanoparticles, as well as factors to consider when producing nanomedicines that have minimal MPS-nanoparticle interactions; we explore this landscape across the cellular to tissue and organ levels. Further, rather than designing materials to suit the body, a growing research niche involves modulating biological responses to administered nanomaterials. We here discuss how developing strategic methods of MPS 'pre-conditioning' with small molecule or biological drugs, as well as implementing strategic dosing regimens, such as 'decoy' nanoparticles, is essential to increasing nanoparticle therapeutic efficacy. By adopting such a perspective, we hope to highlight the increasing trends in research dedicated to improving nanomedicine translation, and subsequently making a positive clinical impact.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES A long period of inappropriate proton pump inhibitors (PPI) treatment has been proved to be associated with adverse prognosis in general population and hemodialysis patients. This study was conducted to clarify the impact of PPI usage on mortality and adverse cardiovascular (CV) events in peritoneal dialysis (PD) patients. METHODS AND DESIGN This is a retrospective study. A total of 905 patients were enrolled from two PD centers, including 211 patients on PPI treatment and 618 patients not on PPIs. Kaplan-Meier curves were used to identify the incidence of adverse outcomes. Multivariate Cox regression models and inverse probability of treatment weighting (IPTW) were applied to analyze hazard ratios (HRs) for adverse outcomes. RESULTS During follow-up, 162 deaths and 102 CV events were recorded. Kaplan-Meier curve demonstrated all-cause mortality (log-rank test p = .018) and CV events (log-rank test p = .024) were significantly higher in PPI usage group. Multivariate Cox regression models and IPTW showed that PPI usage was an indicator for all-cause mortality (HR = 1.35, 95%CI = 1.09-1.67, p = .006) and CV events (HR = 1.78, 95%CI = 1.35-2.32, p < .001). CONCLUSIONS PPI usage is associated with higher all-cause mortality and CV events in PD patients. Clinicians are supposed to be more careful when using PPI and need to master the indications more rigorously in patients receiving PD treatment.

Esomeprazole affects the proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis and chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells by regulating lncRNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA networks. Oncol Lett 2020; 20:329.

Abstract
Recently, proton pump inhibitors have become a hot research topic in the field of cancer drug research. However, the specific anti-tumor effect and underlying mechanisms of esomeprazole (ESO) in gastric cancer (GC) have remained elusive. In the present study, the toxic effects of ESO on the GC cell line AGS were investigated. MTT assays confirmed that ESO inhibited the proliferation of AGS cells and significantly enhanced their chemosensitivity. Transwell assays were performed to determine the anti-metastatic effects of ESO in AGS cells. Flow cytometry demonstrated that ESO induced cell apoptosis and caused cell cycle arrest in the S and G2/M phases. Furthermore, the differential expression of 948 long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), 114 circular RNAs (circRNAs), 1,197 mRNAs and 199 microRNAs (miRNAs) was detected in AGS cells via microarray analysis and RNA-sequencing. The top 10 differently expressed genes were mostly located on chromosomes 10 and 19. In addition, Gene Ontology analysis indicated that the genes were accumulated in functional terms associated with DNA replication, the cell cycle and the apoptotic signaling pathway. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway analysis revealed a variety of significantly dysregulated signaling pathways and targets, including the EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitor resistance pathway, forkhead box O signaling pathway, p53 signaling pathway and platinum drug resistance pathway. Subsequently, the interactions of microtubule-associated protein 2 (MAP2), homeodomain-interacting protein kinase 2 (HIPK2) and ankyrin 2 (ANK2) were noted in a competing endogenous RNA (ceRNA) network, which may be important targets of ESO, exerting an anti-tumor effect in AGS cells. Collectively, ESO affects the proliferation, metastasis, apoptosis and chemosensitivity of gastric cancer cells by regulating long non-coding RNA/circRNA-miRNA-mRNA ceRNA networks.

Abstract
Purpose The mononuclear phagocyte system (MPS) presents a formidable obstacle that hampers the delivery of various nanopreparations to tumors. Therefore, there is an urgent need to improve the off-MPS targeting ability of nanomedicines. In the present study, we present a novel preconditioning strategy to substantially increase the circulation times and tumor targeting of nanoparticles by regulating nanocarrier-MPS interactions. Methods In vitro, the effect of different vacuolar H+-ATPase inhibitors on macrophage uptake of targeted or nontargeted lipid vesicles was evaluated. Specifically, the clinically approved proton-pump inhibitor esomeprazole (ESO) was selected as a preconditioning agent. Then, we further investigated the blocking effect of ESO on the macrophage endocytosis of nanocarriers. In vivo, ESO was first intravenously administered into A549-tumor-bearing nude mice, and 24 h later, the c(RGDm7)-modified vesicles co-loaded with doxorubicin and gefitinib were intravenously injected. Results In vitro, ESO was found to reduce the interactions between macrophages and c(RGDm7)-modified vesicles by interfering with the latter’s lysosomal trafficking. Studies conducted in vivo confirmed that ESO pretreatment greatly decreased the liver and spleen distribution of the targeted vesicles, enhanced their tumor accumulation, and improved the therapeutic outcome of the drug-loaded nanomedicines. Conclusion Our findings indicate that ESO can regulate the nanoparticle-MPS interaction, which provides a feasible option for enhancing the off-MPS targeting of nanomedicines.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Epidemiological studies investigating the use of proton pump inhibitors (PPI) on the risk of liver cancer and/or mortality among persons with chronic liver disease (CLD) have reported conflicting results. We conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis to determine the impact of PPI use on liver cancer and/or death among patients with CLD. METHODS The core databases including MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane library were searched through January 2020. We included studies, evaluating the association between PPIs and liver cancer or mortality among patients with CLD including randomized controlled, nonrandomized controlled, and observational studies. We used inverse-variance random-effects models to estimate the pooled relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for liver cancer or mortality. RESULTS Eleven studies including 173,894 patients were selected. In three studies, individuals with CLD who used PPIs had a 67% greater risk of developing hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) compared to nonusers (RR, 1.67; 95% CI, 1.12-2.50; I2 = 92%). Combining data from the eight studies relating PPI to overall mortality, we observed a 57% increased risk of mortality in PPI users with CLD compared to CLD nonusers (RR: 1.57; 95% CI, 1.24-1.99; I2 = 69%). CONCLUSION PPI use was associated with an increased risk of HCC and mortality in patients with CLD suggesting that PPI prescriptions in patients with CLD should be considered carefully.

Abstract
Simple Summary Cattle are important agricultural animals that provide essential sources of meat, milk, fertilizer for crops, clothing, and animal traction for human use, and the demand for these products has increased in recent years. There are existing differences in disease resistance between different cattle breeds. However, the genetic basis underlying disease resistance differences is poorly understood and requires further investigation. In this study, many immune- and disease-relevant genes and pathways were identified between Holstein and Yunnan humped cattle using RNA-sequencing. The novel findings regarding the genetic basis underlying disease resistance differences between zebu cattle and taurine cattle will provide a scientific basis and key technical support for disease-resistant breeding of domestic cattle, and thus have important social and economic significance. Abstract Previous studies have shown that Yunnan humped cattle have higher disease resistance than pure taurine cattle, such as Holsteins. However, there exists limited information about the molecular genetic basis underlying disease resistance differences between them. The objective of this study was to compare differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the liver and spleen tissues of Holstein and Yunnan humped cattle through comparative transcriptome analysis, using RNA-sequencing. In total, 1564 (647 up- and 917 down-regulated genes) and 1530 (716 up- and 814 down-regulated genes) DEGs were obtained in the liver and spleen tissues of Holstein and Yunnan humped cattle comparison groups, respectively. Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analysis showed that the DEGs were mainly associated with the RIG-I signaling pathway, immune responses, major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I protein complex and complement activation, human T-cell lymphotropic virus type-I (HTLV-I) infection. Some genes related to immune function, such as C1QB, CD55, MASP2, C4BPA, MAVS, NOD2, and CD46, were up-regulated in Yunnan humped cattle, while C2, SERPING1, SERPINE1, TIRAP, TLR2, and TLR6 were down-regulated. The expression levels of 11 selected DEGs, analyzed by quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR), were consistent with the deep sequencing results by RNA-sequencing. Our results will provide a scientific basis and key technical support for disease-resistant breeding of domestic cattle.

Abstract
A library of thiosemicarbazide derivatives of isoniazid 3-27, was synthesized and evaluated for their anti-inflammatory and urease inhibition activities, by using in vitro bioassays. Among these compounds 9, 10, 12, 21, and 26 were identified as new derivatives. Prolonged use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) and infections caused by Helicobacter pylori (ureolytic bacteria), are the two most significant causes of gastric and peptic ulcers. We focused on the identification of the dual inhibitors of inflammation and urease enzyme. Compound 23 was identified as the best dual inhibitor of inflammation (ROS; IC50 = 12.3 µg/mL), and urease enzyme inhibition activity (IC50 = 22.4 µM). Many of these compounds showed comparable activities to the standard anti-inflammatory drug (ibuprofen, IC50 = 11.2 µg/mL) and urease inhibitor (thiourea/acetohydraoxamic acid, IC50 = 21.1/20.3 µM). Compound 12 was found to be the most potent urease inhibitor (IC50 = 12.3 µM) and good inhibitor of inflammation (IC50 = 27.7 µg/mL). Compounds 19, 11, 13, 9, 17, 10, and 16, were also found to be potent inhibitors of urease. Cytotoxicity was also evaluated and all the compounds were found to be non-cytotoxic, except compound 18 and the parent drug isoniazid (IC50 = 29.5 and 28.5 µM, respectively).

Abstract
The development of new proton-pump inhibitors (PPIs) with less adverse effects by lowering the pKa values of nitrogen atoms in pyrimidine rings has been previously suggested by our group. In this work, we proposed that new PPIs should have the following features: (1) number of ring II = number of ring I + 1; (2) preferably five, six, or seven-membered heteroatomic ring for stability; and (3) 1 < pKa1 < 4. Six molecular scaffolds based on the aforementioned criteria were constructed, and R groups were extracted from compounds in extensive data sources. A virtual molecule dataset was established, and the pKa values of specific atoms on the molecules in the dataset were calculated to select the molecules with required pKa values. Drug-likeness screening was further conducted to obtain the candidates that significantly reduced the adverse effects of long-term PPI use. This study provided insights and tools for designing targeted molecules in silico that are suitable for practical applications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The aim of the study is to describe pancreatic enzyme practices during the first year of life in infants with cystic fibrosis (CF) and evaluate associations between dosing and outcomes, including growth and gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms. METHODS We analyzed data from a subset of infants who were in a prospective cohort study conducted at 28 US CF centers. Anthropometric measurements and medications were recorded at each visit. Diaries with infant diet, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) dosing, stool frequency and consistency, and pain were completed by a parent/guardian for 3 days before each visit. RESULTS Two hundred and thirty-one infants were enrolled in the main study; 205 of these met criteria for pancreatic insufficiency (PI). PERT dose between birth and 6 months was on average 1882 LU/kg per meal (range: 492-3727) and was similar between 6 and 12 months (mean: 1842 LU/kg per mean, range: 313-3612). PERT dose had a weak, negative association with weight z score at 3 and 6 months (r = -0.16, 95% confidence interval [CI] -0.29 to -0.02 and r = -0.18, 95% CI -0.31 to -0.04, respectively) but not at 12 months. There was not a clear relationship between PERT dosing and number of stools per day, stool consistency or pain. One hundred and forty-four infants (70%) were placed on acid suppression medication. Weight z score mean was 0.37 higher in infants using proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) exclusively versus those using histamine-2 blockers exclusively (95% CI -0.02 to 0.76, P = 0.06). CONCLUSIONS We did not observe that centers with a higher PERT dosing strategy yielded greater clinical benefit than dosing at the lower end of the recommended range.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used, and their use is associated with increased risk of adverse events. However, whether PPI use is associated with excess risk of death is unknown. We aimed to examine the association between PPI use and risk of all-cause mortality. DESIGN Longitudinal observational cohort study. SETTING US Department of Veterans Affairs. PARTICIPANTS Primary cohort of new users of PPI or histamine H2 receptor antagonists (H2 blockers) (n=349 312); additional cohorts included PPI versus no PPI (n=3 288 092) and PPI versus no PPI and no H2 blockers (n=2 887 030). MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES Risk of death. RESULTS Over a median follow-up of 5.71 years (IQR 5.11-6.37), PPI use was associated with increased risk of death compared with H2 blockers use (HR 1.25, CI 1.23 to 1.28). Risk of death associated with PPI use was higher in analyses adjusted for high-dimensional propensity score (HR 1.16, CI 1.13 to 1.18), in two-stage residual inclusion estimation (HR 1.21, CI 1.16 to 1.26) and in 1:1 time-dependent propensity score-matched cohort (HR 1.34, CI 1.29 to 1.39). The risk of death was increased when considering PPI use versus no PPI (HR 1.15, CI 1.14 to 1.15), and PPI use versus no PPI and no H2 blockers (HR 1.23, CI 1.22 to 1.24). Risk of death associated with PPI use was increased among participants without gastrointestinal conditions: PPI versus H2 blockers (HR 1.24, CI 1.21 to 1.27), PPI use versus no PPI (HR 1.19, CI 1.18 to 1.20) and PPI use versus no PPI and no H2 blockers (HR 1.22, CI 1.21 to 1.23). Among new PPI users, there was a graded association between the duration of exposure and the risk of death. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest excess risk of death among PPI users; risk is also increased among those without gastrointestinal conditions and with prolonged duration of use. Limiting PPI use and duration to instances where it is medically indicated may be warranted.

Xie Y, Bowe B, Li T, Xian H, Yan Y, Al-Aly Z. Long-term kidney outcomes among users of proton pump inhibitors without intervening acute kidney injury. Kidney Int 2017; 91:1482-1494. [PMID: 28237709 DOI: 10.1016/j.kint.2016.12.021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 114] [Impact Index Per Article: 16.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/23/2016] [Revised: 12/15/2016] [Accepted: 12/22/2016] [Indexed: 12/13/2022]
Abstract
Proton pump inhibitor (PPI) use is associated with an increased risk of acute kidney injury (AKI), incident chronic kidney disease (CKD), and progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). PPI-associated CKD is presumed to be mediated by intervening AKI. However, whether PPI use is associated with an increased risk of chronic renal outcomes in the absence of intervening AKI is unknown. To evaluate this we used the Department of Veterans Affairs national databases to build a cohort of 144,032 incident users of acid suppression therapy that included 125,596 PPI and 18,436 Histamine H2 receptor antagonist (H2 blockers) consumers. Over 5 years of follow-up in survival models, cohort participants were censored at the time of AKI occurrence. Compared with incident users of H2 blockers, incident users of PPIs had an increased risk of an estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) under 60 ml/min/1.73m2 (hazard ratio 1.19; 95% confidence interval 1.15-1.24), incident CKD (1.26; 1.20-1.33), eGFR decline over 30% (1.22; 1.16-1.28), and ESRD or eGFR decline over 50% (1.30; 1.15-1.48). Results were consistent in models that excluded participants with AKI either before chronic renal outcomes, during the time in the cohort, or before cohort entry. The proportion of PPI effect mediated by AKI was 44.7%, 45.47%, 46.00%, and 46.72% for incident eGFR under 60 ml/min/1.73m2, incident CKD, eGFR decline over 30%, and ESRD or over 50% decline in eGFR, respectively. Thus, PPI use is associated with increased risk of chronic renal outcomes in the absence of intervening AKI. Hence, reliance on antecedent AKI as warning sign to guard against the risk of CKD among PPI users is not sufficient as a sole mitigation strategy.
