Osteochondrosis in horses: An overview of genetic and other factors
Abstract Osteochondrosis (OC) is a frequent manifestation of developmental orthopaedic disease, and its severe clinical presentation is known as OC dissecans (OCD). OC is defined as a disruption of the endochondral ossification process in the epiphyseal cartilage, and this disease has been reported in different mammalian species, including humans, dogs,

Classification of Platelet‐Activating Anti‐Platelet Factor 4 Disorders
ABSTRACT Introduction The prototypic anti‐platelet factor 4 (PF4) disorder—heparin‐induced thrombocytopenia and thrombosis (HITT)—features immunoglobulin G (IgG) class antibodies that activate platelets, monocytes, and neutrophils in a mainly heparin‐dependent fashion via Fcγ receptor‐dependent cellular activation.

The extracellular matrix plays a critical role in modulating cell behaviour in the central nervous system influencing neural cell morphology and growth. However, a better understanding of the impact of individual matrix proteins on both neurons and astrocytes is critical for advancing the development of matrix‐based neural repair strategies.

Neural electrodes were modified with poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) doped with chondroitin sulfate or dextran sulfate. Electrochemical and acute electrophysiological recordings were undertaken. The effective electrode area had the strongest correlation with electrophysiological response.

Abstract Knee osteoarthritis is experienced by hundreds of millions of people worldwide and is a major cause of disability. Although enhancing physical activity levels and the participation in exercise programmes has been proved to improve the debilitating illness of osteoarthritis, many do not engage in recommended levels of physical activity.

ABSTRACT Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can provide non‐invasive insight into how a cancer patient responds to therapy. Their role in disease monitoring of advanced melanoma patients treated with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) is unknown. CTC protein expression of human leukocyte antigen class‐I (HLA I) and programmed death ligand‐1 (PD‐L1) may ...

ABSTRACT Objectives The selection of appropriate biomaterial for guided bone regeneration is challenging. The blending of polymers is a simple method to retain their characteristics and to compensate for the drawbacks of each component. The release of Sr+2 (strontium) ions from the polycaprolactone/strontium carbonate (PCL/SrC) nanocomposite is the ...

Identification of chemically sulfated/desulfated glycosaminoglycans in contaminated heparins and development of a simple assay for the detection of most contaminants in heparin [PDF]
Contaminated heparin was linked to at least 149 deaths and hundreds of adverse reactions. Published report indicates that heparin contaminants were a natural impurity, dermatan sulfate, and a contaminant, oversulfated chondroitin sulfate (OSCS). OSCS was
