The MMP‐9/TIMP‐1 Ratio and Concentrations of Osteopontin Are Elevated in Cerebrospinal Fluid of People With Multiple Sclerosis and Decrease After Autologous Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the utility of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) biomarkers—matrix metalloproteinase‐9 (MMP‐9), tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases‐1 (TIMP‐1), the MMP‐9/TIMP‐1 ratio, and osteopontin (OPN)—as indicators of blood–brain barrier (BBB) integrity and disease activity in people with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis (pwMS ...

Lumbar Microdiscectomy [PDF]

open access: yesJBJS Essential Surgical Techniques, 2016
In most patients, the radiculopathy associated with lumbar disc herniation resolves nonoperatively. For patients in whom nonsurgical management has failed, microdiscectomy can be considered. Today, an operating microscope is preferred because of the collinear light and magnification offered. Alternatively, loupes and a headlight may be employed.

Osteoblast‐CD4+ CTL Crosstalk Mediated by SIRT1/DAAM2 Axis Prevents Age‐Related Bone Loss

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In the osteoblastic niche, SIRT1 activates and recruits CD4+ CTLs by increasing DAAM2 expression via EZH2 deacetylation and boosting the secretion of key chemokines, such as CCL3, CCL5, and CXCL10. Then, CD4+ CTL directly eliminates senescent osteoblasts in an MHC‐II‐dependent way, thereby slowing down the process of bone ageing and effectively ...
