Abstract Aims To explore UK key‐opinion leader perspectives on the future role of stem cell‐derived islets (sc‐islets) in islet transplantation for people with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods Four UK‐based key‐opinion leaders evaluated current limitations of donor islet transplantation and reviewed emerging evidence, clinical pathways and logistical ...

Nucleotide precursors prevent folic acid-resistant neural tube defects in the mouse [PDF]
Closure of the neural tube during embryogenesis is a crucial step in development of the central nervous system. Failure of this process results in neural tube defects, including spina bifida and anencephaly, which are among the most common birth defects ...

Lethal Mutagenesis of Picornaviruses with N-6-Modified Purine Nucleoside Analogues [PDF]
RNA viruses exhibit extraordinarily high mutation rates during genome replication. Nonnatural ribonucleosides that can increase the mutation rate of RNA viruses by acting as ambiguous substrates during replication have been explored as antiviral agents ...

Sex Differences in Metabolite–Immune Circuits of Neuroinflammation
ABSTRACT Sex is a fundamental yet underexplored determinant of human neuroinflammation. Across autoimmune, neurodegenerative, and post‐infectious neurological syndromes, males and females exhibit consistent differences in disease vulnerability, progression, and immune tone.

Mycophenolate mofetil inhibits lymphocyte binding and the upregulation of adhesion molecules in acute rejection of rat kidney allografts. [PDF]
Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) interacts with purine metabolism and possibly with the expression of adhesion molecules. In the present study, we analysed the expression of these molecules in transplanted kidney allografts treated with RS LBNF1 kidneys were ...

The “Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial (RIGHT)” Study—Concept, Rationale, and Design
ABSTRACT The Reducing Inflammation for Greater Health Trial's (RIGHT) study is a single‐center, randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial designed to test whether clazkizumab, an interleukin‐6 (IL‐6) inhibitor, can improve or slow decline in physical, cognitive, and vascular function in older adults, when compared to a placebo.

Mycophenolic acid (MPA) modulates host cellular autophagy progression in sub genomic dengue virus-2 replicon cells [PDF]
Cellular autophagy (Macrophagy) is a self-degradative process, executed through the network of autophagy associated genes (ATGs) encoded proteins. Both in vitro and in vivo studies suggest that dengue virus (DENV) induces autophagy and supports the viral
