Ischemic stroke is one of the most severe neurological disorders with limited therapeutic strategies. The utilization of nanoparticle drug delivery systems is a burgeoning field and has been widely investigated. Among these, biomimetic drug delivery systems composed of biogenic membrane components and synthetic nanoparticles have been extensively highlighted in recent years. Biomimetic membrane camouflage presents an effective strategy to prolong circulation, reduce immunogenicity and enhance targeting. For one thing, biomimetic nanoparticles reserve the physical and chemical properties of intrinsic nanoparticle. For another, the biological functions of original source cells are completely inherited. Compared to conventional surface modification methods, this approach is more convenient and biocompatible. In this review, membrane-based nanoparticles derived from different donor cells were exemplified. The prospect of future biomimetic nanoparticles in ischemic stroke therapy was discussed.

Glioma, one of the most common malignant tumors in the nervous system, is characterized by limited treatment, high mortality and poor prognosis. Numerous studies have shown that lncRNAs play an important role in the onset and progression of glioma by acting on various classical signaling pathways of tumors through signaling, trapping, guiding, scaffolding and other functions. LncRNAs contribute to the malignant progression of glioma via proliferation, apoptosis, epithelial-mesenchymal transformation, chemotherapy resistance, ferroptosis and other biological traits. In this paper, relevant lncRNA signaling pathways involved in glioma progression were systematically evaluated, with emphasis placed on the specific molecular mechanism of lncRNAs in the process of ferroptosis, in order to provide a theoretical basis for the application of lncRNAs in the anticancer treatment of glioma.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
