Animal stroke models and outcome evaluation: A review

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Rodents are the preeminent stroke model species. Large animal models exist too, but are poorly standardized. Ischemic and hemorrhagic experimental models are available, with the intraluminal filament model being predominant. Outcomes are evaluated via quantifying subjects' sensorimotor impairment, cognitive memory faculties, degree of cellular ...

Biomimetic Nanofiber Scaffold Coated With Acellular Matrices for Uterine Myometrial Tissue Engineering

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of acellular matrix generation from human uterine fibroblast cells, coating on polycaprolactone electrospun nanofibers, and subsequent in vitro and in vivo characterization. A tissue‐engineered scaffold tailored for uterine myometrium‐specific regeneration is designed. The electrospinning technique was used to fabricate aligned

Cortical bone distribution in the human mandibular symphysis: Ontogenic and morphometric approaches in archeological context

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The human mandibular symphysis concentrates multiaxial loads during function and remodels throughout growth, but the precise mechanisms underlying cortical bone shape during growth remain relatively unexplored. Approaches based solely on thickness or external cortical contours provide only partial insights and do not capture the functional ...

Local variation in age‐related cortical expansion within and between cross‐sections of distal human long bones

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cortical bone expansion is an age‐related process where, through endosteal resorption and periosteal apposition, cross‐sectional diameter increases while cortical thickness decreases in long bone diaphyses. Local variation has been observed in this process between cross‐sectional locations, but few studies have examined directional variation ...

Pelvic breadth and juvenile locomotor energetics: Implications for the obstetrical dilemma hypothesis across human growth in past and present humans

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The obstetrical dilemma hypothesis (ODH) proposes an evolutionary trade‐off between obstetric requirements and locomotor performance. However, whether external pelvic breadth measures influence walking energetics during human growth remains poorly understood.

Comprehensive Characterization of Acer truncatum Leaf Extract: Identification of Systemic Metabolites and Effects on Performance, Antioxidant Status, and Intestinal Microbiota in Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
Dietary A. truncatum leaf extract is absorbed and improves laying performance in aged hens by enhancing systemic antioxidant capacity and modulating the gut microbiota. ABSTRACT The demand for natural feed additives is considerably increasing in the antibiotic‐free feed era.

The Nuclear Receptor Testicular Receptor 4 Orchestrates Cytoskeletal Organization in a G Protein Subunit Alpha 12/Rho‐Associated Protein Kinase–Dependent Manner to Promote Myofibroblast Differentiation and Tissue Fibrosis in Systemic Sclerosis

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Members of the superfamily of nuclear receptors have been implicated in inflammatory processes and pathologic tissue remodeling and have emerged as attractive targets for pharmaceutical intervention. However, the role of testicular receptor 4 (TR4; or Nr2c2) in fibroblast activation and rheumatologic diseases has not yet been investigated ...

Dual Effects of β‐TrCP2 Deletion in Bone Homeostasis: Suppression of Osteoclastogenesis and Enhancement of Osteoblast Activity

Arthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objectives To elucidate role of beta‐transducin repeat‐containing protein 2 (β‐TrCP2) in bone homeostasis for its potential as a therapeutic target for osteoporosis. Methods The role of β‐TrCP2 in bone phenotypes was investigated using systemic β‐TrCP1KO and β‐TrCP2KO mice, along with myeloid‐specific conditional β‐TrCP2KO (β‐TrCP2ΔM) mice.
