Acute motor and sensory axonal neuropathy in association with primary Sjögren’s syndrome: a case report

BMC Neurology, 2021
Background Primary Sjögren’s syndrome is a chronic, autoimmune, connective tissue disorder that results from the infiltration of exocrine glands, especially the lacrimal and salivary glands, by autoantibodies.

Extracellular Vesicles‐Based Biological Macromolecule Delivery Systems: Biogenesis, Characterization, and Emerging Clinical Applications

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are nanoscale membrane‐bound structures that play a pivotal role in intercellular communication by transporting bioactive molecules, including proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and organelles, between cells. Originating from the endosomal pathway, EVs reflect the physiological and pathological status of their parent

Matriptase deletion initiates a Sjögren's syndrome-like disease in mice. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2014
The objective of this study was to determine the effect of epithelial barrier disruption, caused by deficiency of the membrane-anchored serine protease, matriptase, on salivary gland function and the induction of autoimmunity in an animal model.Embryonic

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

GASTROINTESTINAL INVOLVEMENT IN SJÖGREN’S DISEASE

Rheumatology Quarterly
Sjögren’s syndrome (SjS) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by lymphocytic infiltration of the exocrine glands, which can also affect the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, hepatobiliary system, and pancreatic exocrine tissues.

Engineered molecular diagnostic strategies for hepatocellular carcinoma: Integrating flexible photonic barcodes, liquid biopsies, and AI‐enhanced sensing platforms

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Abstract Early diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains challenging because conventional serum biomarkers, especially alpha‐fetoprotein (AFP), show limited sensitivity for early‐stage disease. Recent progress in engineered molecular diagnostics provides new opportunities to improve HCC detection through integrated material, molecular, and ...

Human biomarker navigator

iMeta, EarlyView.
The Human Biomarker Navigator integrates the disease continuum, biomarker dynamics, cross‐organ biomarker networks, biomarker classification, and technology‐driven paradigms. It maps how biomarkers link multi‐system physiology and pathology across the nervous, respiratory, endocrine, circulatory, immune, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and ...

The Hidden Architecture of Pancreatic Ducts: 3D Anatomical Reconstruction and Its Implication on Pancreatic Resection

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Purpose Postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) is a common complication after pancreatic surgery and its mechanisms remain incompletely understood. While the diameter of the main pancreatic duct is well‐known to be a risk factor of POPF, the impact of branch duct's (BD) anatomy is not known.

Sjögren’s syndrome: comparison among the main imaging techniques in the study of major salivary glands

Reumatismo, 2011
Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) is a chronic inflammatory disease with an autoimmune etiology, that affects exocrine glands, in particular salivary and lacrimal glands. Among the diagnostic criteria of SS, imaging tecniques play an important role. The aim of our
