Incidental squamous cell carcinoma of renal pelvis presenting as skin invasion: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2020
Introduction Squamous cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis is a rare neoplasm, accounting for less than 0.8% of malignant renal tumors. Chronic irritation is believed to be the primary pathogenic cause for squamous cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis.

Treatment with Minicircle DNA Expressing a FGF23 Fragment in a Clinically relevant Mouse Model of X‐Linked Hypophosphatemic Rickets

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The pathogenic role of PHEX isn't fully determined, and there is no radical cure for X‐linked hypophosphatemic rickets (XLHR). This study makes the first attempt to perform gene therapy using a minicircle DNA (MC‐DNA) vector expressing a fragment of FGF23 (amino acids 180‐251) in Phex‐T1349C mice and suggests MC‐DNA as a promisingly safe and effective ...

Targeting Itga8 Mitigates Neurogenic Bladder Fibrosis Driven by Trem2⁺ Macrophage‐Derived Fn1 via FAK/RhoA/ROCK Signaling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Normal bladders exhibit quiescent fibroblasts/macrophages, whereas neurogenic bladders show acute‐phase Itga8⁺ fibroblast expansion driven by Trem2⁺ macrophage‐secreted Fn1, which activates FAK/RhoA/ROCK signaling, promotes cytoskeletal remodeling, and upregulates pro‐fibrotic genes.

Revising Fascial Anatomy With a Focus on the Fusion Fascia in Mesenteric Gastrointestinal Cancer Surgery

open access: yesAnnals of Gastroenterological Surgery, EarlyView.
This review critically reassesses our prior hypothesis and proposes a revised anatomical model of the fusion fascia that is broadly applicable to GI cancer surgeries grounded in the principles of mesenteric resection. Our synthesis suggests that the fusion fascia is neither a dense connective tissue membrane nor a remnant of mesothelial fusion, but ...

A Robotic Urinary Bladder Enabling Volume Monitoring and Assisted Micturition

open access: yesAdvanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
An implantable robotic bladder is presented that can store urine in an origami‐designed enclosure. An inductance sensing principle can monitor and transfer the urine volume in real‐time. It can actively expand based on the amount of urine collected from kidneys and apply on‐demand mechanical compression to assist urination.
