Stage‐Associated Microglial Subpopulations and Dynamics in Vascular Pathogenesis of Oxygen‐Induced Retinopathy

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
In the oxygen‐induced retinopathy (OIR) mouse model, two distinct microglial subpopulations play opposing roles: highly glycolytic microglia (HGM) promote neovascular formation via Pkm2, while Mrc1/CD206‐positive phagocytosis‐associated microglia (PAM) facilitate its regression.

Equine botulism

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Botulism is a severe and often fatal disease in equine patients worldwide. Clostridium botulinum is a ubiquitous soil organism which produces a potent neurotoxin resulting in neuromuscular blockade and flaccid paralysis in affected animals. Definitive diagnosis is often impractical or impossible, leading to diagnosis and treatment based on ...

Increased C‐reactive protein is associated with corneal nerve loss and painful neuropathic symptoms in Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
Higher circulating C‐reactive protein, a marker of systemic inflammation, is associated with reduced corneal small nerve fiber density in individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Among participants with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, CRP levels are highest in those reporting positive neuropathic symptoms such as burning, painful cold, or electric ...
