A Retinoid Antagonist Attenuates Bone Growth Inhibition Caused by Growth Plate Injury in Mice
ABSTRACT Growth plate injury, which may trigger growth plate fusion or arrest, is a common occurrence in pediatric orthopaedics that can lead to angulation of the limb and limb length discrepancy. Growth plate injuries are currently treated palliatively, with surgical intervention when severe limb length discrepancy or angulation is found during follow‐

Advances in prognostic biomarkers for biliary atresia: Current insights and future directions
Abstract Biliary atresia (BA) is a progressive, fibrosing cholangiopathy of infancy characterized by inflammatory obstruction of the bile ducts, ultimately leading to end‐stage liver disease if untreated. Early diagnosis and timely surgical intervention via hepatoportoenterostomy (HPE) are critical for improving outcomes; however, prognostication ...

ABSTRACT The Florisian Land Mammal Age (FLMA; 773‐12 ka) is characterised by specialist, often extinct, grazing as well as wetland species, many of which are no longer present in the southern African interior. Middle Pleistocene FLMA faunal assemblages are rare, particularly those associated with artefacts, limiting reconstruction of environmental ...

ABSTRACT Trichosanthes kirilowii is a plant used in traditional Chinese medicine. Its fruits, seeds, and roots can all be used medicinally. The fruit of T. kirilowii has a moistening effect on the lung for arresting cough. However, there is no scientific research to prove that the fruit of T. kirilowii can improve asthma. Herein, we evaluated whether T.

Role of hedgehog signaling in the pathogenesis and therapy of heterotopic ossification
Heterotopic ossification (HO) is a pathological process that generates ectopic bone in soft tissues. Hedgehog signaling (Hh signaling) is a signaling pathway that plays an important role in embryonic development and involves three ligands: sonic hedgehog

ABSTRACT Rhaponitin (Rha) possesses anti‐tumor activity and mediates the transcriptional activity of hypoxia‐inducible factor (HIF)‐1α that affects cisplatin (Cis) resistance. However, whether Rha can lessen Cis resistance in tongue squamous cell carcinoma (TSCC) by mediating HIF‐1α activity is unclear. Cis‐resistant SCC9 (SCC9‐CisR) cells were treated

Cell Apoptosis and Glucocorticoid‐Induced Osteonecrosis
The review identifies glucocorticoid‐induced osteocyte/osteoblast apoptosis as central to femoral head osteonecrosis (GION), mediated through STAT1‐caspase‐3, PI3K/Akt, Wnt/β‐catenin, and oxidative stress pathways. Emerging therapies targeting these pathways (e.g., HIF‐1α stabilization, AMPK activation, and exosome‐mediated miRNA delivery) show ...
