Biological references for 17OHP, IRT, biotinidase in newborns
Neonatal deaths, which usually occur in the first week after delivery, account for nearly 75 percent of all deaths of children under 5 years of age. Prematurity, birth difficulties, infections, and birth defects are responsible for about 40 percent of these deaths. Although mortality rates have declined since 2000, access to quality healthcare remains a major problem for mothers and infants worldwide. In perspective, the present study aimed to establish clear biological reference intervals for 17α-hydroxyprogesterone (17-OHP), immunoreactive trypsinogen (IRT), and biotinidase in Indian neonates. The statistical analysis of data from up to 3200 dried blood spot (DBS) samples of Indian newborns provided valuable information for the new cut-off values in newborn screening (NBS) programs. We applied correlation analysis to fix the relationship for NBS parameters such as 17-OHP, IRT, and biotinidase. This study provided important information about the distribution and comparison of key cut-offs for biomarkers considering body weights and gestational age in the Indian newborn population for the first time, which can help healthcare experts make easier treatment decisions.

Therapeutic Effects of Coumarins with Different Substitution Patterns
The use of derivatives of natural and synthetic origin has gained attention because of their therapeutic effects against human diseases. Coumarins are one of the most common organic molecules and are used in medicine for their pharmacological and biological effects, such as anti-inflammatory, anticoagulant, antihypertensive, anticonvulsant, antioxidant, antimicrobial, and neuroprotective, among others.

DPP4: A Multifunctional Enzyme Drug-Target for Diabetes II
The text describes the Dipeptidyl-peptidase 4 (DPP4 or CD26) emphasizing its multi-substrate and multi-functional role. As it is an established drug target for the treatment of Diabetes type II, it refers to the approved inhibitors of the enzyme, their mechanism and mode of inhibitory action and the mechanism underneath their side effects, when it is known. It also discusses the probable usefulness of uncompetitive, non-competitive or mixed inhibitors in addition to the approved competitive or covalent bond forming inhibitors because of the multi-substrate character of the enzyme.

Innovative Therapies Targeting Drug Resistant in ccRCC
A thorough study of Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) shows that com- bining tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKI) with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) shows promising results in addressing the tumor-promoting influences of abnormal immunologi- cal and molecular biomarkers in metastatic Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC). These abnormal biomarkers enhance drug resistance, support tumor growth, and trigger cancer- related genes. Ongoing clinical trials are testing new treatment options that appear more effective than earlier ones. However, more research is needed to confirm their long-term safety use and potential side effects. This study highlights vital molecular and immunologi- cal biomarkers associated with drug resistance in Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC). Furthermore, this study identifies a number of promising drug candidates and biomarkers that serve as significant contributors to the enhancement of the overall survival of ccRCC patients. Consequently, this article offers pertinent insights on both recently completed and ongoing clinical trials, recommending further toxicity study for the prolonged use of this treatment strategy for patients with metastatic ccRCC, while equipping researchers with invaluable information for the progression of current treatment strategies.

Photobiomodulation in Dermatology
Photobiomodulation (PBM), formerly known as low-level laser light therapy (LLLT), is a safe phototherapy technique that uses wavelengths of the visible light spectrum which includes red light (RL, 620–700 nm) and near-infrared (NIR, 700–1440 nm). This treatment modality has been used in dermatology, both in clinical settings and at home. PBM involves the use of various light sources, including low-level lasers (LLL) and light-emitting diodes (LED), to deliver therapeutic light. Reviews on the matter have already been conducted.

Megakaryocytes in Brief
Megakaryocytes are large bone marrow cells responsible for producing platelets crucial for blood clotting. They undergo endomitosis, becoming polyploid to generate thousands of platelets. Beyond thrombopoiesis, they regulate hematopoietic niches and immune responses. Dysregulation can lead to disorders like thrombocytopenia, myeloproliferative neoplasms, and acute megakaryoblastic leukemia.
