Foreign body responses in central nervous system mimic natural wound responses and alter biomaterial functions [PDF]
Biomaterials hold promise for diverse therapeutic applications in the central nervous system (CNS). Little is known about molecular factors that determine CNS foreign body responses (FBRs) in vivo , or about how such responses influence biomaterial ...

Serum Matrix Metalloproteinase (Mmp)-2,9 Activity, Galectin-3 and Systemic Inflammation in Patients With Postinfarction Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction [PDF]
The available data suggest that heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI) is a very frequent event. However, the true prevalence and relevance of diastolic dysfunction after MI remains to be elucidated. Objective: study was designed to evaluate

Cardiac disease in systemic sclerosis: Integrating pathobiology with clinical management
Abstract Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a complex autoimmune disorder in which cardiovascular involvement remains a major determinant of morbidity and mortality. Cardiac injury in SSc results from the interplay of microvascular dysfunction, immune‐mediated inflammation, and progressive interstitial and replacement fibrosis, leading to myocardial disease ...

Contribution of galectin-1, a glycan-binding protein, to gastrointestinal tumor progression [PDF]
Gastrointestinal cancer is a group of tumors that affect multiple sites of the digestive system, including the stomach, liver, colon and pancreas. These cancers are very aggressive and rapidly metastasize, thus identifying effective targets is crucial ...

High altitudes are challenging for the animals that inhabit these environments. The Xizang plateau frog (Nanorana parkeri) survives in high‐altitude environments through a synergistic strategy of metabolic remodeling and protein expression adjustment to optimize energy efficiency and enhance cellular protection.

Association between sleep patterns and galectin-3 in a Chinese community population
Background Irregular sleep patterns have been associated with inflammation. Galectin-3, a novel biomarker, plays an important role in inflammation. We investigated the relationship between sleep patterns and galectin-3 in a Chinese population.

Galectin-3-mediated glial crosstalk drives oligodendrocyte differentiation and (Re)myelination [PDF]
Galectin-3 (Gal-3) is the only chimeric protein in the galectin family. Gal-3 structure comprises unusual tandem repeats of proline and glycine-rich short stretches bound to a carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD).

ABSTRACT Eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA) is a rare and potentially life‐threatening systemic, inflammatory disease with multi‐organ manifestations, variable presentation and complex pathology. Multiple interconnected immunological pathways are implicated in EGPA pathology, including a type‐2 immune response driving predominantly ...
