Identification of an apoC-II variant (apoC-IIBethesda) in a kindred with apoC-II deficiency and type I hyperlipoproteinemia.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1988
Apolipoprotein (apo) C-II deficiency is characterized by elevated plasma triglycerides, chylomicrons, and very low density lipoproteins, as well as reduced levels of low density and high density lipoproteins.

Injury triggers fascia fibroblast collective cell migration to drive scar formation through N-cadherin

Nature Communications, 2020
Extensive scars develop in deep wounds as opposed to superficial wounds but it is unclear why. Here, the authors use live imaging of physiologic wounds and scars formed ex vivo to show that fascia fibroblasts upregulate N-cadherin allowing coordinated ...

Determination of The Relationship Between Severity of Obstructive Sleep Apnea And Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease [PDF]

Journal of Cardio-Thoracic Medicine, 2017
Introduction: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients are at increased risk of sleep-disorders. The concomitant occurrence of COPD and obstructive sleep apnea hypopnea syndrome (OSAHS) is named overlap syndrome. This study aimed to evaluate

Guanylyl cyclase activation reverses resistive breathing–induced lung injury and inflammation [PDF]

, 2015
Inspiratory resistive breathing (RB), encountered in obstructive lung diseases, induces lung injury. The soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway is down-regulated in chronic and acute animal models of RB, such as ...

Factors associated with long turnaround time for early infant diagnosis of HIV in Myanmar

Global Health Action, 2017
Background: A previous review of early infant diagnosis (EID) using polymerase chain reaction technology (PCR) under integrated HIV care (IHC) program in Myanmar revealed a low uptake of timely (within 6 to 8 weeks of babies’ age) EID and a long ...
