    Abstract Introduction: Immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a rare and life-threatening disorder. Caplacizumab has been the latest drug incorporated into the initial treatment of acute episodes, allowing for faster platelet recovery and a decrease in refractoriness, exacerbation, thromboembolic events, and mortality. However, caplacizumab is also associated with a bleeding risk and higher treatment costs, which prevent many centers from using it universally.
    Areas covered: Studies that included iTTP and/or caplacizumab to date were selected for this review using PubMed and MEDLINE platforms. We describe outcomes in the pre-caplacizumab era and after it, highlighting the benefits and risks of its use early in frontline, and also pointing out special situations that require careful management.
    Expert opinion: It is clear that the availability of caplacizumab has significantly and favorably impacted the management of iTTP patients. Whether this improvement is cost-effective still remains uncertain, and data on long-term sequelae and different healthcare systems will help to clarify this point. In addition, evidence of the bleeding/thrombotic risk of iTTP patients under this drug needs to be better addressed in future studies.

    Abstract Immuno Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (iTTP) is a rare and potentially fatal disorder characterized by systemic microvascular thrombosis because of a severe deficiency of ADAMTS13. It is difficult to generate knowledge about TTP because of its low incidence and the lack of clinical trials. Most of the evidence on diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis has been generated from real-world data registries. In 2004, the Spanish Apheresis Group (GEA) implemented the Spanish registry of TTP (REPTT) with 438 patients suffering 684 acute episodes in 53 hospitals up to January 2022. REPTT has studied several aspects of TTP in Spain. The iTTP incidence in Spain our country is 2.67 (95 % CI 1.90-3.45) and the prevalence is 21.44 (95 % CI % 19.10-23.73) patients per million inhabitants. The refractoriness incidence is 4.8 % and exacerbation incidence was 8.4 %, with a median of follow-up of 131.5 months (IQR: 14-178 months). In a 2018 review, the mortality in the first episode due to TTP was 7.8 %. We have also found that de novo episodes require fewer PEX procedures than relapses. Since June 2023, REPTT will involve Spain and Portugal, with a recommended sampling protocol and new variables to improve the neurological, vascular and quality of life evaluation of these patients. The main strength of this project will be the involvement of a combined population of more than 57 million inhabitants, which implies an annual incidence of close to 180 acute episodes per year. This will allow us to provide better answers to questions like treatment efficacy, associated morbidity and mortality, and the possible neurocognitive and cardiac sequelae.

    Abstract Despite the enormous potential of nanomedicines to shape the future of medicine, their clinical translation remains suboptimal. Translational challenges are present in every step of the development pipeline, from a lack of understanding of patient heterogeneity to insufficient insights on nanoparticle properties and their impact on material-cell interactions. Here, we discuss how the adoption of advanced optical microscopy techniques, such as super-resolution optical microscopies, correlative techniques, and high-content modalities, could aid the rational design of nanocarriers, by characterizing the cell, the nanomaterial, and their interaction with unprecedented spatial and/or temporal detail. In this nanomedicine arena, we will discuss how the implementation of these techniques, with their versatility and specificity, can yield high volumes of multi-parametric data; and how machine learning can aid the rapid advances in microscopy: from image acquisition to data interpretation.

    Abstract Fusarium wilt is one of the most destructive chickpea diseases worldwide. Race 5 (Foc5) is the most harmful in the Mediterranean basin. The primary objective of this study is to validate a block of six SNP markers previously mapped in Ca2 in a diverse panel of cultivars, advanced and inbred lines phenotyped for resistance to fusarium wilt. Additionally, we aim to assess the effectiveness of using these markers in the selection of resistant Foc5 lines in an ongoing breeding program. The results showed a 100% coincidence between phenotype and expected haplotype in plant material evaluated for Foc5. We also analyzed 67 inbred lines previously phenotyped by different authors for fusarium wilt reaction, though the specific race was not specified. In these accessions, 65.8% of the analyzed lines exhibited complete correspondence between the phenotype and haplotype. Our results suggest that in early generations it is possible to select resistant materials with reliability, leading to the removal of a significant number of lines, thereby reducing costs and facilitating the handling of materials for additional trait evaluations. Functional annotation of genes delimited by the SNP block revealed several genes in the "response to stimulus" category with potential roles in the resistance reaction.

    Abstract Barcoding of nano- and micro-particles allows distinguishing multiple targets at the same time within a complex mixture and is emerging as a powerful tool to increase the throughput of many assays. Fluorescent barcoding is one of the most used strategies, where microparticles are labeled with dyes and classified based on fluorescence color, intensity, or other features. Microparticles are ideal targets due to their relative ease of detection, manufacturing, and higher homogeneity. Barcoding is considerably more challenging in the case of nanoparticles (NPs), where their small size results in a lower signal and greater heterogeneity. This is a significant limitation since many bioassays require the use of nano-sized carriers. In this study, we introduce a machine-learning-assisted workflow to write, read, and classify barcoded PLGA-PEG NPs at a single-particle level. This procedure is based on the encapsulation of fluorescent markers without modifying their physicochemical properties (writing), the optimization of their confocal imaging (reading), and the implementation of a machine learning-based barcode reader (classification). We found nanoparticle heterogeneity as one of the main factors that challenges barcode separation, and that information extracted from the dyes' nanoscale confinement effects (such as Förster Resonance Energy Transfer, FRET) can aid barcode identification. Moreover, we provide a guide to reaching the optimal trade-off between the number of simultaneous barcodes and classification accuracy supporting the use of this workflow for a variety of bioassays.
