Marine Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Agents, 4th Edition
Inflammation is a natural biological response to harmful stimuli like pathogens, injuries, or environmental stressors. However, when this response becomes chronic-often due to modern lifestyle factors like poor diet-it can lead to "lifestyle diseases". A wide range of chronic conditions, including cardiovascular diseases, cancer, diabetes, chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, neurodegenerative, and autoimmune diseases, are now linked to inflammation. These conditions often involve oxidative stress, a harmful state caused by an imbalance between reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS) and the body's antioxidant defenses. Oxidative stress can further drive inflammation, creating a damaging cycle.The rising prevalence of chronic inflammatory disease has sparked interest in natural compounds with both antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. Marine organisms have emerged as a promising source of such bioactive compounds. From marine plants, algae, and fish to invertebrates like sea cucumbers, sponges, and soft corals and microorganisms such as fungi, microalgae, and archaea, these ocean lifeforms produce a wide array of therapeutic compounds. Given the growing scientific and therapeutic interest in marine bioactive compounds, we are pleased to launch the fourth edition of the Special Issue "Marine Anti-Inflammatory and Antioxidant Agents."

Liver Fibrosis
Fibrosis is a double-edged sword. On one hand, it can be the final stage of healed inflammation as scar tissue. On the other hand, it is often linked to a decrease in organ function or complete organ failure. Additionally, in liver disease, fibrosis serves as an indicator of disease progression towards liver cirrhosis or hepatocellular carcinoma. This is particularly true for non-alcoholic fatty liver disease, a widespread disorder associated with Western lifestyles and diets. To interfere with organ fibrosis, it is crucial to have a better understanding of its initiation, perpetuation, and resolution at the molecular level. The development of liver fibrosis can be caused by metabolic factors (such as alcohol, diet, and drugs), infections (such as viruses), autoimmune conditions (like primary biliary cholangitis), or genetic abnormalities (such as increased iron storage). The molecular pathways that lead to advanced fibrosis vary depending on the underlying cause. The goal of this Special Issue is to dissect these processes and provide more clarity on the subject.
Design and Synthesis of Novel Antibiotics
The increasing resistance of microorganisms to currently available antimicrobial agents represents a serious and growing global health concern. Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) arises naturally over time, driven by selective pressure associated with the extensive use of antimicrobial compounds. Genetic mutations and adaptive mechanisms allow sensitive microorganisms to acquire resistance, with bacterial pathogens showing particularly alarming trends-especially the rapid emergence and dissemination of multidrug-resistant (MDR) and pan-drug-resistant (PDR) strains.This phenomenon is exacerbated by the widespread use of antibiotics in clinical therapy, agriculture, and the food industry, contributing to the environmental accumulation of antimicrobial residues and further promoting resistance. As a result, there is an urgent need to develop novel antibiotics with alternative mechanisms of action and improved safety profiles.This Reprint presents recent advances in the design, chemical synthesis, and structural characterization of new antimicrobial agents. Emphasis is placed on the evaluation of their biological activity and cytotoxicity. The Special Issue includes both original research articles and review papers, offering valuable insights into current strategies aimed at overcoming antimicrobial resistance.
Recent Advances in Acetaminophen Hepatotoxicity
Acetaminophen (paracetamol, APAP) is one of the most consumed analgesic and anti-pyretic drugs in the world. Generally considered safe at therapeutic doses, intentional or unintentional overdosing can cause severe liver injury and even acute liver failure. In Western countries, APAP is responsible for thousands of hospitalizations annually and is the major cause of acute liver failure. Since the establishment of the clinically relevant mouse model in 1973, numerous studies investigating the mechanism of APAP-induced liver injury have been published. Based on early mechanistic insight, the current standard of care, N-acetylcysteine (NAC), was developed. Although NAC is still the only clinically approved antidote available, additional mechanistic insight led to the discovery of promising new drugs, such as fomepizole, which, based on the solid understanding of its mechanism of action and proven safety profile, is under clinical development. Further drugs or compounds with various modes of action are also under consideration as future antidotes. In addition to the intracellular mechanisms of injury, the inflammatory response, which can aggravate the injury or promote regeneration and recovery, is another focus of research. However, no viable drug candidates promoting regeneration have been identified. This Special Issue is aimed at providing selected contributions on advances in the mechanistic understanding of APAP-induced liver injury and the regeneration and identification of new therapeutic targets and interventions.

Green Extraction and Formulation of Antioxidants Derived from Food and Agricultural Waste
Food and agricultural wastes have been recognized as valuable sources of bioactive compounds, including different types of antioxidants. The concept of increasing the utilization of waste as a secondary raw material has received significant attention recently, because it is both cost-efficient and in accordance with the principles of the circular economy and sustainable nutrition.Antioxidants are compounds known for their beneficial effects on human health and have attracted great interest as nutraceuticals for developing functional foods and dietary supplements. They vary in physicochemical properties and are often characterized by low stability (e.g., oxygen, light, and heat sensitivity), inadequate sensory properties, low solubility, or low bioavailability (due to poor absorption or intensive metabolism and elimination). Those factors limit their utilization as nutraceuticals.To overcome these limitations, it is necessary to develop suitable extraction and formulation procedures that are specifically designed for each antioxidant, aiming to maintain the stability of the active ingredient and ensure targeted delivery. The focus should be on green extraction and formulation techniques requiring less energy, non-toxic solvents, and lower amounts of lipids, surfactants, and biopolymers, while providing safe and superior products.In this Reprint of the Special Issue, original research reports and updated literature reviews provide an overview of the current state of the knowledge on novel methods for the green extraction and formulation of antioxidants derived from food and agricultural wastes.

Anticancer Drug Discovery Based on Natural Products
Cancer is heterogeneous and dynamic in nature, and its drug resistance, due to high vulnerability to point mutations, and its aberrant pathways are making it quite challenging to efficiently address and manage. Natural products have always been a mainstream source of anticancer drugs due to the modulation of multiple hallmark traits of cancer. Nevertheless, the anticancer drugs available today are not efficient in treating patients with advanced-stage cancers and also exert quite serious side effects. One thing that clinicians and researchers have thoroughly understood so far is that highly specific drugs with only a single mechanism of action are not a prime choice. Thus, polypharmacologically active drugs with detailed knowledge about the genes and pathways that they modulate are what researchers and clinicians are presently looking for. Gene and pathway knowledge will also help us to understand the possible side effects of any drugs in advance since most genes are not specific to a particular location or responsible only for a particular disease. Most genes influence other genes as they are connected through the related pathways. Cheminformatics- and bioinformatics-based studies such as network-pharmacology-based studies, ADMET prediction, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulations are quite important in aiding and expediting research towards the translational level.Translational aspects of preclinical studies to clinical level are of utmost importance for natural products to progress from bench to bedside.

Epidemiology, Virulence Factors and Antimicrobial Resistance in Staphylococcus aureus
Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a leading cause of healthcare-associated MRSA ((HA)-MRSA) infections, and its prevalence is also increasing in community-associated MRSA ((CA)-MRSA) infections. Studies on the prevalence of asymptomatic S. aureus and MRSA carriage are important since colonization is a possible precursor stage of invasive disease. The variety of S. aureus species causing infections is largely due to the wide variety of virulence factors encoded by these bacteria, which favor the invasion of different tissues and the evasion of the host's immune system. Genetically diverse, the epidemiology of MRSA is primarily characterized by the serial emergence of epidemic strains. The constant monitoring of these profiles of resistance to antimicrobials, as well as the knowledge of the prevalent and circulating clonal profiles in hospitals, is extremely important for the direction of empirical therapies. Currently, newly developed drugs can treat these resistant staphylococci, but there are already reports of reduced sensitivity to them. Successful treatment remains challenging and requires the evaluation of both novel antimicrobials and adjunctive aspects of care and source control. This Reprint includes contributions that further our understanding of basic and clinical S. aureus research regarding epidemiology, transmission, genetic diversity, virulence factors, surveillance and treatment, and brings together the expertise and enthusiasm of an international group of contributors to research in this field.

Acute and Chronic Heart Failure
The topic "Acute and Chronic Heart Failure: Pathophysiology and New Therapeutic Developments" was chosen because, despite the progress made in recent decades in the prevention and treatment of cardiovascular diseases, they remain the leading cause of death in both developed and developing countries, and heart failure (HF) is, in any case, the endpoint of the majority of cardiac pathologies. HF prevalence is progressively increasing worldwide, with HF with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) now exceeding 50% prevalence in HF cases. The published contributions are numerous and all are interesting. I would, however, like to emphasize the fact that a rapidly growing condition worldwide-insulin resistance with associated hyperinsulinemia-that is present in a large proportion of HF patients, particularly in HF patients with preserved or only slightly reduced ejection fraction, is still not treated as an independent risk factor, despite the large body of the literature demonstrating its role in numerous significant metabolic and cardiovascular abnormalities. Patients with insulin resistance, which will later progress to type 2 diabetes, may, over time, develop pathological remodeling of the left ventricle with, initially, diastolic dysfunction and, subsequently, also systolic dysfunction, which will lead to the development of HF.

Bayesianism
When we speak of Bayesianism, we are referring to a philosophical and statistical framework that involves the representation of degrees of belief or justification using probabilities. It is characterized by the idea that belief comes in degrees that can be formalized using the axioms of probability theory. Bayesianism involves the assessment of the rationality of degrees of belief based on a set of rules and specifies how these beliefs can be updated using Bayes' theorem based on new information or evidence.Many statistics textbooks treat frequentist statistics as the main subject and relegate Bayesian statistics to a single chapter, often near the end of the book. The idea of this Special Issue of Entropy has been to treat Bayesian statistics as the main topic and to provide a snapshot of how Bayesian inference is understood and how it contributes to scientific endeavor today, late in the first quarter of the 21st Century.

Dendrimers
This Special Issue Reprint is in honor of the creator of dendrimers, Prof. Donald A. Tomalia, on the occasion of his 85th birthday. Prof. Tomalia played a key role in establishing the place of dendrimers in polymer chemistry and in nanosciences. This Reprint displays the recent advances in the field of dendrimers and dendritic structures, with emphasis on diverse biological and pharmaceutical properties, written by many of the major contributors to the field. The first paper, a review, is a reflection on the beginning, past, present, and future of dendrimers in pharmaceutic, medicine, and life science. It is followed by three other reviews about ferrocene-based dendritic drugs inducing the Fenton mechanism to kill cancer cells, dendrimers functionalized with boron clusters for boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) against cancers, and dendrimers used in vivo as drug carriers. Six research papers describe different types of dendritic structures, such as a large library of amphiphilic Janus dendrimers for the targeted delivery of mRNA and storage of vaccines, dendrons equipped with doxorubicin and an antibody against cancer cells, dendrons forming micelles encapsulating either doxorubicin or different drugs against cancer cells, dendrons cross-linked with polymers to form hydrogels suitable for drug release, and dendrons associated with human serum albumin. Three research papers concern dendrimers against choroidal neovascularization in eyes, protoporphyrin IX, and paclitaxel loaded in dendrimers against cancer cells.
Hearing Loss
Hearing loss represents one of the most wide-ranging disabilities, affecting more than 5% of the world's population. Different types of hearing loss, including conductive and sensorineural hearing loss, may lead to serious hearing impairments in children and adults. Multiple causes may be involved in the aetiopathogenesis of hearing loss, depending on the different biologic mechanisms, including congenital, autoimmune, and genetic factors. Diagnosis and management continue to be a challenge for hearing disorders such as chronic otitis media, otosclerosis, cholesteatoma, congenital or acquired sensorineural hearing loss, sudden sensorineural or metabolic hearing loss, and otogenic facial palsy. Electrophysiology and neuroscience approaches are needed in order to better elucidate the diagnostic dilemmas in the field of otology and neurotology. Neuroimaging is also welcoming the inclusion of temporal bone and cochlear malformations. In our Reprint, new treatment options will be discussed to improve potential methods of hearing restoration and new surgical approaches and techniques will be described in order to better manage different outer-middle-inner ear pathologies.

State of the Art in Biomaterials for Drug Delivery
Nowadays, biomaterials are widely used in medicine and the medical care fields, playing increasingly important roles due to their unique structure and excellent performance. In particular, biomedical materials exhibit good biocompatibility and biodegradability, which allow for their design in drug delivery to the human body.Biomedical materials as anticancer drug carriers can be implemented in targeted drug delivery in the human body, improve the utilization rate of the cancer drug effects, and largely reduce the side effects of anticancer drugs on normal human body cell tissue. In addition, the drug carrier can also effectively improve the properties and stability of anticancer drugs in tissues, enhance the slow release of drugs, and reduce the lack of drug use in the body. Moreover, advancements in biomaterials have improved the safety and efficacy of diagnostic, therapeutic, and theranostic approaches for various diseases. The structures and interactions between biomaterials and drugs can influence the pesticide effect and have the potential to affect cellular physiology due to the close relationship between biological systems and biomaterial features. Drug delivery systems can also provide novel solutions by developing desirable and ideal materials to control the physicochemical, biological, structural, and mechanical microenvironments for successful drug delivery.This Special Issue focuses on biomaterials, including, but not limited to, natural materials, composite materials, functionalized nanomaterials, hydrogels, etc., for different drug delivery applications.
A World without Measles and Rubella
Measles and rubella continue to affect children worldwide, even though effective, safe, and inexpensive vaccines have been available for over 50 years. Although measles immunization is estimated to have prevented over 56 million childhood deaths since the year 2000, the residual annual burden of 136,216 measles deaths and 32,000 children born with congenital rubella syndrome is unacceptable. Eliminating measles and rubella worldwide is technically feasible, and every WHO region has set measles and rubella elimination targets. However, without a global target, regions are struggling with achieving and then sustaining measles/rubella elimination. Global measles/rubella-containing vaccination coverage stagnated at around 85% for over a decade before declining to lower levels in many countries during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many planned supplemental immunization activities intended to fill the immunity gaps were postponed or canceled during the pandemic. Additionally, nineteen countries have yet to introduce rubella-containing vaccines despite the overwhelming evidence of disease and economic burden, as well as ethical considerations.
Fractal and Fractional Analysis in Biomedical Sciences and Engineering
Over the past two decades, various signal and image analyses, as well as bioinformatics approaches, have had a significant impact on research in life sciences. Problems arising in medical and biological research depend on a multitude of system parameters, often in a nonlinear way; these problems can often be successfully addressed via the tools of complex system analysis. Fractal and fractional analysis, originally rooted in theoretical developments, has later been recognized as well-suited for analyzing problems that occur in nature. Due to the random multiplicative processes in an organism, influencing growth, differentiation, and function, structures can be described in terms of scaled copies of self-similar entities. Machine learning and artificial intelligence are increasingly being employed in combination with fractional calculus.This Special Issue Reprint offers an overview of state-of-the-art developments in the field of fractal and fractional-based methodologies as applied to the analysis and modeling of biological entities. Eight out of ten articles directly target cutting-edge medical problems. It is highly multidisciplinary and is expected to be of interest to researchers from the health sector, life sciences, and applied mathematics, as well as to readers with different academic or practical backgrounds.
