Classification of Nanomaterial Drug Delivery Systems for Inflammatory Bowel Disease by Wang H, Zhou F, Shen M, Ma R, Yu Q

“…Patients with IBD frequently experience recurrent abdominal pain and bloody diarrhea, while severe cases may result in intestinal obstruction, perforation, and cancer. Lifelong maintenance therapy may thus be needed to manage these symptoms; however, traditional IBD drugs, such as 5-aminosalicylic acid, glucocorticoids, immunosuppressants, and biological agents, are often associated with problems including poor solubility, instability, and ineffective targeting, as well as causing serious side effects in non-target tissues. …”

“Dead Cells Talking”: The Silent Form of Cell Death Is Not so Quiet by Richard Jäger, Howard O. Fearnhead

“…Here, we will consider evidence supporting the idea that dying cells signal their presence to the surrounding tissue and, in doing so, elicit repair and regeneration that compensates for any loss of function caused by cell death. We will discuss evidence suggesting that cancer cell proliferation may be driven by inappropriate or corrupted tissue-repair programmes that are initiated by signals from apoptotic cells and show how this may dramatically modify how we view the role of apoptosis in both tumourigenesis and cancer therapy.…”
