Compound heterozygosity for KLF1 mutations associated with remarkable increase of fetal hemoglobin and red cell protoporphyrin

Haematologica, 2011
The persistence of high fetal hemoglobin level in adults may ameliorate the clinical phenotype of beta-thalassemia and sickle cell anemia. Several genetic variants responsible for hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin, linked and not linked to the ...

High‐Yield Bioproduction of Extracellular Vesicles from Stem Cell Spheroids via Millifluidic Vortex Transport

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Stem cell spheroids, produced via a high‐throughput microfabrication technique, are transported within a vortex generated at the outlet channels of a cross‐slot millifluidic chip. For Reynolds number exceeding 170–200, intermittent high shear stresses applied to each spheroid within the vortex trigger a massive release of biologically active ...

Evaluation of Novel Fetal Hemoglobin Inducer Drugs in Treatment of β-Hemoglobinopathy Disorders

International Journal of Hematology-Oncology and Stem Cell Research, 2013
Objective: The use of fetal hemoglobin (HbF) inducer drugs is considered as a novel approach in treatment of β-hemoglobinopathies, especially β- thalassemia and sickle cell disease. HbF inducers including hydroxyurea, histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor

Intraoperative cell salvage as an effective intervention for postpartum hemorrhage—Evidence from a prospective randomized controlled trial

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
BackgroundPostpartum hemorrhage (PPH) is one of the leading causes of maternal mortality. Promptly recovering blood loss is critical for PPH. Intraoperative cell salvage (ICS) is a method to collect and process red blood cells (RBCs) from the blood lost ...

Upconversion Nanoparticle‐Covalent Organic Framework Core–shell Particles as Therapeutic Microrobots Trackable With Optoacoustic Imaging

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Upconversion nanoparticle‐covalent organic framework core–shell particles provide enhanced contrast for optoacoustic imaging by leveraging the optical absorption of upconversion luminescence within the covalent organic framework matrix. Beyond their role as contrast agents, these particles enable customizable therapeutic agent loading and release, as ...

Enhanced detection of fetal pose in 3D MRI by Deep Reinforcement Learning with physical structure priors on anatomy [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Fetal MRI is heavily constrained by unpredictable and substantial fetal motion that causes image artifacts and limits the set of viable diagnostic image contrasts. Current mitigation of motion artifacts is predominantly performed by fast, single-shot MRI and retrospective motion correction.

A Personalized Fluid-structure Interaction Modeling Paradigm for Aorta in Human Fetuses [PDF]

arXiv, 2023
Fluid-structure interaction (FSI) modeling, a technique widely used to enhance imaging modalities for adult and pediatric heart diseases, has been underutilized in the context of fetal circulation because of limited data on flow conditions and material properties.

Asymmetric Inter‐Hemisphere Communication Contributes to Speech Acquisition of Toddlers with Cochlear Implants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study constructs machine‐learning models to resolve developmental relationships among auditory performance, auditory cortical processing, and functional connectivity of the bilateral language network during the first year of restored hearing. The results demonstrate that asymmetric inter‐hemisphere communication contributes significantly to

Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.
