In this study, we analysed the immune responses of blood‐derived monocyte macrophages and iPSC‐derived macrophages following BCG/HKMT infection. We found that iPSC‐derived macrophages displayed a markedly stronger activation profile, including faster migration, increased reactive oxygen species production, elevated apoptosis marker expression and ...

LIRI induces FABP4 secretion, driving lipid droplets accumulation in alveolar epithelial cells. FABP4 activates p38 MAPK/ULK1 signalling to inhibit lipophagy and promote lipid storage. Lipid droplets trigger epithelial–mesenchymal transition and disrupt alveolar barrier. Elevated FABP4 predicts ARDS in cardiopulmonary bypass patients.

4D Flow MRI Velocity and Turbulence Mapping in Mild Valvular Heart Disease
ABSTRACT Background Valvular heart disease (VHD) commonly leads to the development of turbulent blood flow. Turbulent kinetic energy (TKE), measured with 4D flow MRI, may be a complement to current metrics for early identification of VHD. Purpose To investigate TKE as a marker of VHD in relation to flow velocity and cardiovascular geometry.
