Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are a diverse population of membrane nanoparticles secreted by nearly all cell types, playing a key role in intercellular communication by transferring bioactive macromolecular cargo. In cancer, EVs shape both the local tumour microenvironment and distant premetastatic niches.

Summary Background Bariatric surgery is very effective in long‐term weight management. The present study was undertaken to investigate the short‐term effects of sleeve gastrectomy (SG) and of Roux‐en‐Y gastric bypass (RYGB) on (a) gastrointestinal (GI) motility, that is gastric emptying and oro‐cecal transit time and (b) secretion of regulatory gut ...

ABSTRACT Dermatitis herpetiformis (DH) is a rare, intensely pruritic cutaneous manifestation of celiac disease (CD), typically presenting with excoriated papulovesicular lesions on extensor surfaces. DH is associated with IgA autoantibodies against epidermal transglutaminase (eTG), which form granular immune deposits in the papillary dermis and induce ...

SUMMARY Prurigo pigmentosa (PP) is a rare inflammatory dermatosis, clinically characterized by intensely pruritic, erythematous papules and papulovesicles, with reticular hyperpigmentation upon healing. We herein report four cases in adults of different ethnic backgrounds, in which the disease was associated with ketogenic metabolic states due to ...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Weight loss after metabolic bariatric surgery (MBS) is heterogeneous, and the contribution of liver histology and genetic susceptibility to insufficient weight loss (IWL) or weight regain (WR) remains unclear. We assessed the prevalence of IWL and WR after MBS and their association with liver histology and metabolic ...
