Retrograde Synovial Biopsy of the Knee Joint Using a Novel Biopsy Forceps
Synovial biopsies of the knee joint are commonly performed arthroscopically with the patient under full or regional anesthesia. To overcome the effort, costs, and potential risks of surgery, we developed an office-based technique for retrograde synovial ...

Itch‐induced tick removal (IITR): An acquired neuroimmune mechanism, itch‐induced tick removal, develops after repeated tick exposure, mobilizing T cells and macrophages at the tick bite site to trigger a rapid scratching response that facilitates timely tick removal within a critical window that precedes the transmission of many tick‐borne pathogens ...

Randall's plaques (RP) serve as the nidus for calcium oxalate (CaOx) kidney stones. The current study reveals that hydroxyapatite (HAP) crystals activate the THY1–GSK3α/β–β‐catenin axis in renal interstitial fibroblasts (hRIFs), inducing FASLG secretion.

EFFECT OF FORCEPS SIZE AND MODE OF ORIENTATION ON ENDOSCOPIC SMALL-BOWEL BIOPSY EVALUATION
Endoscopy is increasingly being used to obtain duodenal biopsy specimens in suspected small intestinal malabsorption. We have prospectively evaluated the effect of standard and jumbo biopsy forceps, as well as the mode of orientation of the specimens ...

ABSTRACT Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a significant clinical challenge due to the limited efficacy of conventional treatments like surgery, radiofrequency ablation (RFA), and transarterial embolization (TAE). Here, we develop an innovative TAE and immunothermal therapy strategy based on smartly assembled near‐micron layered double hydroxide ...

Targeted Delivery of mRNA to the Heart via Extracellular Vesicles or Lipid Nanoparticles
ABSTRACT Efficient and specific delivery of mRNA to target tissues is critical for maximising therapeutic benefits while minimising off‐target effects and systemic toxicity. Systemic administration of mRNA using lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) or extracellular vesicles (EVs) typically leads to predominant accumulation in the liver.
