Therapeutic Radionuclides in Nuclear Medicine
Dear Colleagues, Recently, the theranostic principle has been used with tumor receptor-specific radiopharmaceuticals containing therapeutic nuclides, such as 161Tb, 177Lu, 188Re, 212Pb, and 225Ac. The production mode, availability, and costs of radionuclides have a significant impact on their clinical use and are often bottlenecks for broader applications. Therefore, cyclotron-produced neutrons could open a new era for producing relevant radionuclides. The identification of tumor-specific binding sites, the development of tumor-addressing conjugates, opportunities for enhanced target enrichment, and the protection of critical organs define the potential of therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals. The combination of radiotherapeutics with other pharmaceuticals to modulate the target or repair systems exploits synergistic effects. Combining radiotherapeutics with the body's immune system or immunotherapeutics raises hopes for immunization against cancer and could explain the success of targeted alpha therapy vs. targeted beta therapy. This reprint is dedicated to nuclear oncologists, health physicists, radiopharmacists, radiochemists, radiobiologists, and all other oncologists. We thank all our colleagues and would like to express our respect for their contributions to this reprint.

Spontaneous Intracranial Haemorrhage Caused by a Non-Aneurysmal Brain Vascular Malformation
New Diagnostic and Therapeutic Aspects of Thrombotic Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare and life-threatening thrombotic microangiopathy caused by congenital or acquired severe deficiency of the von Willebrand factor cleaving protease, ADAMTS13. Acute TTP is a medical emergency requiring a rapid differential diagnosis and immediate treatment, which is often challenging due to the overlap between clinical and laboratory features and other thrombotic microangiopathies. Diagnostic and therapeutic advancements over the past decade, including the increased availability of ADAMTS13 testing and the development of caplacizumab, the first targeted therapy for acquired TTP, have significantly improved the management of acute TTP and reduced the burden of short-term outcomes such as mortality and exacerbation of acute disease. Concurrently, new clinical challenges have emerged, to mention but one, addressing the burden of long-term complications of TTP and cardiovascular comorbidities in TTP patients in remission.This Special Issue will cover new diagnostic and therapeutic aspects of TTP care, with the scope of advancing our knowledge and clinical intervention to address the current challenges of TTP management.

The objective of this reprint is to facilitate an in-depth engagement with the subject matter of prostate cancer. The prostate is the largest accessory gland of the male reproductive tract. Together with the seminal vesicles and bulbourethral glands, the prostate is responsible for the production of an alkaline fluid that forms part of the seminal fluid. The prostate is frequently affected by a number of pathological conditions in males over the age of 40, including benign prostatic hyperplasia and cancer. Prostate cancer is one of the most prevalent forms of cancer among the male population on a global scale. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), in the year 2020, approximately 1.41 million men worldwide were affected by prostate cancer. Despite significant advances in treatment, including the advent of targeted and immune-checkpoint-inhibitor-based therapies, cancer remains one of the primary causes of death worldwide. This reprint presents the latest developments in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment, including in vitro and in vivo approaches.
Enzyme Inhibitors from Marine Resources
Marine living organisms and their main and secondary compounds and metabolites are among the richest in biological diversity. Many of their fundamental qualities and applications are still fully or partially unexplored. Given that enzymes are essential in the plethora of biological functions of these organisms, it is increasingly evident that enzyme inhibitors are also involved in the control of these functions, as well as in many diseases and attack-defense processes. Research on the natural inhibitors found in marine organisms is, therefore, of great interest at present in a myriad of research perspectives.The present Special Issue collected novel research on non-peptide or peptide/protein inhibitors, or derived forms, with a focus on isolation, structure-function characterization, methods of action, variety, evolution, screening, and genomics-proteomics. Particular emphasis is placed on enzyme inhibitors from marine invertebrates, microorganisms, and algae, still not well understood. Additionally, studies on the potential value of such molecules for biological, biotechnological, and pharmaceutical/biomedical uses, particularly as drugs or lead compounds, are taken into account.
Container-content interactions
In the pharmaceutical sector, container-content interactions refer to the transfer of substances between manufacturing equipment, packaging or medical devices, and the drug. These phenomena include the adsorption of active ingredients or excipients onto container walls, their penetration into the interior of materials or their diffusion into the external environment. In addition, these phenomena include the migration of substances from the container to the drug, or from the external environment to the drug.Such interactions can compromise the quality, efficacy and safety of pharmaceutical products, leading to potentially serious adverse effects for patients, such as changes in therapeutic efficacy or toxic reactions.In this work, we have reported on examples of container-content interactions, specifying the circumstances in which they occur, the methodologies used to study them and their impact on both the drug and the patient.
