Effects of Therapeutic Targeting of Cancer Associated Fibroblasts on Extracellular Matrix Remodeling in an Engineered Tumor Stroma Model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is a complex combination of stromal cells and extracellular matrix. The cancer-associated fibroblast (CAF) plays an integral role in remodeling the TME and promoting tumor aggression.

Mechanosensitive Cell‐Laden Shape‐Memory Scaffolds Engineered via Cryogelation

open access: yesSmall Structures, EarlyView.
GelMA‐based shape‐memory scaffolds encapsulating human adipose‐derived stem cells are fabricated via cryogelation, showing rapid recovery and high cell viability. Under cyclic compression, they promoted mechanotransduction gene expression, and composite formulations (collagen/GelMA, dECM/GelMA) retained robust shape‐memory, highlighting their promise ...

Pathogenesis of Vitiligo: Integrating Immune and Non‐Immune Cell Crosstalk

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vitiligo is an acquired autoimmune disease characterized by depigmented macules resulting from melanocyte loss. It is a complex multifactorial disorder in which genetic predisposition is combined with environmental factors; however, its detailed etiology remains unclear.

Vasoreactivity as a Measure of Kidney Viability During Ex Vivo Normothermic Machine Perfusion

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
This study aimed to investigate the influence of warm ischemic injury on renal vascular responsiveness to vasoactive drugs during normothermic machine perfusion (NMP). We found that the vascular responses to dopamine and norepinephrine could be used as objective indicators to assess kidney viability during NMP.

Equine experimental lameness induction models

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary Equine lameness due to musculoskeletal injury remains a common and significant cause of decreased performance. While our understanding and management of lameness have improved with advanced imaging, as well as diagnostic and therapeutic progression, a need for experimental equine models of lameness remains.

Update on diagnosis, nonpharmacological treatment and prevention of Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS)

open access: yesEquine Veterinary Education, EarlyView.
Summary The term Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS) has been used since 1999. As there are important differences, the terms Equine Squamous Gastric Disease (ESGD) and Equine Glandular Gastric Disease (EGGD) were introduced in 2015. Risk factors like dietary management, training regimens and drug side effects, as described for NSAIDs, predispose ...

Molecular identification of hyaluronate lyase, not hyaluronidase, as an intrinsic hyaluronan-degrading enzyme in Clostridium perfringens strain ATCC 13124

open access: yesScientific Reports
Clostridium perfringens, an opportunistic pathogen, produces mu-toxin hyaluronidases including endo-β-N-acetylglucosaminidases (Nags) as a virulence invasion factor.

CLEC18A interacts with sulfated glycosaminoglycans and controls clear cell renal cell carcinoma progression

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
CLEC18A is a previously poorly characterized C‐type lectin. We mapped the expression of CLEC18A to the proximal tubule of the kidney and found CLEC18A to interact with sulfated glycosaminoglycans on proteoglycans. Furthermore, we found that CLEC18A plays an important role in hindering the progression of clear cell renal cell carcinomas in humans and in
