Dengue Haemorrhagic Fever presenting as Acute Abdomen [PDF]

, 2011
We describe a case of a 38 year-old Sri Lankan female who was referred to the surgeon on call with a picture of acute abdomen. She presented with a three-day history of fever, headache, abdominal pain and diarrhoea; however, the physical examination was ...

KDAC6 alters cell morphology and motility through positive and negative modulation of F‐actin distribution

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KDAC6 has been associated with cell motility and actin structures, but specific domain contributions are not established. The two catalytic domains have differential effects on motility and F‐actin regulation, affecting cortical F‐actin density, motility, stress fibers, and cell spreading.

High DDIT4 expression in colorectal cancer is associated with an immunosuppressive tumour microenvironment and poor prognosis

Scientific Reports
DNA damage-inducible transcript 4 (DDIT4) is a stress-responsive protein involved in immune activity and tumourigenesis, yet its relationship with the immune microenvironment of colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear.

A minimal cellulosome‐like system in Cellulosilyticum lentocellum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Cellulose‐degrading bacteria typically use cellulosomes, large multi‐enzyme complexes on a scaffold protein. In Cellulosilyticum lentocellum, we characterise a far smaller arrangement, a single scaffold bound to one cellulase through a single cohesin‐dockerin interaction.

BCG vaccination potentiates oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal myeloid‐derived suppressor cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
BCG vaccination enhances oxidative phosphorylation in neonatal MDSCs, impairing their immunosuppressive function. It upregulates electron transport chain genes and mitochondrial activity, increasing ATP and oxygen consumption. Pharmacological OXPHOS inhibition partially restores suppressive capacity, confirming causality.

Rectus Muscle Hematoma as a Rare Differential Diagnosis of Acute Abdomen; a Case Report

Emergency, 2018
Rectus sheath hematoma is a rare but well-known problem. Exercise, pregnancy, subcutaneous injection of insulin, abdominal surgery and severe coughs can be predisposing factors of hemorrhage in the mentioned muscle sheath. Here, we will discuss a case of

MARK4 enhances stress granule formation under oxidative stress and increases tau accumulation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
MARK4 (red dots) localizes to stress granules (orange dots) and promotes their formation under oxidative stress by modulating TIA1 (blue dots). MARK4 and TIA1 synergistically increase tau (purple) accumulation, and the reduction of the TIA1 ortholog suppresses neurodegeneration in a fly model.

Association of α-SMA/FAP-positive cancer-associated fibroblasts with clinicopathological features and prognosis in extrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma

Diagnostic Pathology
Objective This study aimed to evaluate the value of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) that positively express α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and fibroblast activation protein (FAP) as survival indicators for patients with extrahepatic ...

Beta1 subunits enable fentanyl‐induced BK channel activation and opioid regulation of cerebral artery diameter

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
During the current opioid crisis, the majority of overdose deaths are attributed to ultra‐potent synthetic opioids, such as fentanyl. While fentanyl exerts its action via opioid receptors, we propose that potassium channels in the brain blood vessels may also sense fentanyl.

Relationship between stress hyperglycemia ratio and gastrointestinal bleeding and mortality after coronary artery bypass grafting: a multicenter cohort study

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
BackgroundGastrointestinal bleeding after coronary artery bypass grafting (GIBCG) is a serious postoperative complication linked to increased mortality. The stress hyperglycemia ratio (SHR) has been recognized as a reliable predictor of adverse clinical ...
