Targeting neutrophil extracellular traps in metabolic and immune niche: Nanomaterials for diabetes tissue regeneration

BMEMat, EarlyView.
The effects of NETs on regeneration of various diabetic tissues, and strategies targeting NETs for diabetes tissue regeneration. In the diabetic environment, NETs undergo complex metabolic and immune reprogramming, leading to dynamic changes in antibacterial and proinflammatory functions, and affecting regeneration of multiple systemic tissues.

Testing the Reliability of Optical Coherence Tomography to Measure Epidermal Thickness and Distinguish Volar and Nonvolar Skin

JID Innovations
In persons with limb loss, prosthetic devices cause skin breakdown, largely because residual limb skin (nonvolar) is not intended to bear weight such as palmoplantar (volar) skin.

Phantom Sensations: What's a Brain to Do? A Critical Review of the Re-mapping Hypothesis [PDF]

, 2018
I will review the most widely held account of phantom sensations; the “re-mapping hypothesis.” According to the re-mapping hypothesis, amputation is followed by significant neural reorganization that, over time, restores the alignment between the brain’s

Sentience in cephalopod molluscs: an updated assessment

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article evaluates the evidence for sentience – the capacity to have feelings – in cephalopod molluscs: octopus, cuttlefish, squid, and nautilus. Our framework includes eight criteria, covering both whether the animal's nervous system could support sentience and whether their behaviour indicates sentience.

The human ARF tumor suppressor senses blastema activity and suppresses epimorphic tissue regeneration. [PDF]

, 2015
The control of proliferation and differentiation by tumor suppressor genes suggests that evolution of divergent tumor suppressor repertoires could influence species regenerative capacity.

Titin Is Present in the Elastic Tethers That Connect Separating Anaphase Chromosomes in Crane‐Fly Spermatocytes

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Elastic tethers connect telomeres of separating chromosomes in anaphase of animal cells. Immunofluorescence staining of titin in crane‐fly spermatocytes, using 4 different antibodies, shows that the giant elastic protein titin seems to be a component of mitotic tethers: titin “strands” extend between separating chromosomes, connecting their ...

Snakebite: An Exploratory Cost-Effectiveness Analysis of Adjunct Treatment Strategies. [PDF]

, 2018
The cost-effectiveness of the standard of care for snakebite treatment, antivenom, and supportive care has been established in various settings. In this study, based on data from South Indian private health-care providers, we address an additional ...

All‐in‐One Intelligent Hemostatic Sponge: Rapid Hemostasis for Non‐Compressive Wounds With Synergetic Enhanced Antibacterial Efficacy and Self‐Reporting Biodegradation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Clinicians often concurrently tackle critical challenges including emergency hemorrhage, secondary infection, and the elusive tracking of biodegradation of conventional hemostatic agents for complex wounds. Here, we report an intelligent hemostatic sponge (spCS@AIE) by incorporating aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) nanoparticles with short‐wave ...

A Comparison of Four-Year Health Outcomes following Combat Amputation and Limb Salvage.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Little research has described the long-term health outcomes of patients who had combat-related amputations or leg-threatening injuries. We conducted retrospective analysis of Department of Defense and Department of Veterans Affairs health data for lower ...

Peptide RL‐QN15 Regulates Functions of Epidermal Stem Cells to Accelerate Skin Wound Regeneration via the FZD8/β‐Catenin Axis

Exploration, EarlyView.
Amphibian‐derived peptide RL‐QN15 activates the Wnt/β‐catenin signaling pathway by interacting with the FZD8 membrane receptor, promoting epidermal stem cells proliferation, migration, stemness, and EMT processes, thus promoting skin wound healing.
