The composite extensor retinaculum cutaneous flap: an anatomical cadaveric study

open access: yesAustralasian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2019
**Background**: Complex digital extensor tendon injuries are difficult to manage when adhesion formation and stiffness prevail. Vascularised tissue to reconstruct the skin and extensor defect would be the ideal reconstruction in both the acute and ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Traumatic index extensor tendon attenuation mimicking closed tendon rupture: two case reports

open access: yesBMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2020
Background While some traumatic closed index extensor tendon ruptures at the musclotendinous junction have been previously reported, closed index extensor tendon pseudorupture due to intertendinous attenuation is exceedingly rare with only one case ...

An upstream open reading frame regulates expression of the mitochondrial protein Slm35 and mitophagy flux

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study reveals how the mitochondrial protein Slm35 is regulated in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The authors identify stress‐responsive DNA elements and two upstream open reading frames (uORFs) in the 5′ untranslated region of SLM35. One uORF restricts translation, and its mutation increases Slm35 protein levels and mitophagy.

Technique for Complete Extensor Mechanism Reconstruction Using a Fresh Quadriceps Tendon–Patella–Patellar Tendon–Tibial Tubercle Allograft in a Native Knee

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques
Chronic extensor mechanism injuries can cause severe functional impairment and require extensive surgical intervention. Current techniques involve reconstruction of the extensor mechanism using allograft, autograft, or synthetic mesh. This Technical Note

Four cases of variations in the forearm extensor musculature in a study of hundred limbs and review of literature

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2006
All surgeons must bear in mind the existence of muscular variations when performing common tendon transfers. Presence of additional bellies and tendons of existing muscles or presence of additional muscles in unusual locations might misguide a surgeon ...
