Left-to-right inverted single-lung transplantation: a case report

Journal of Cardiothoracic Surgery
Background Lung transplantation is the most effective treatment for end-stage lung disease. However, the shortage of donor lungs is a major limitation. Inverted lung transplantation has the potential to expand the donor pool and make suitable donor lungs

Perioperative donor bone marrow infusion augments chimerism in heart and lung transplant recipients [PDF]

, 1995
Background.: We and others have demonstrated that a low level of donor cell chimerism was present for years after transplantation in tissues and peripheral blood of heart and lung recipients; it was associated, in the latter, with a lower incidence of ...

Living Microalgae‐Based Magnetic Microrobots for Calcium Overload and Photodynamic Synergetic Cancer Therapy

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A magnetic microrobot fabricated by Spirulina platensis is proposed to accumulate in tumor regions and generate in situ high calcium concentration and sufficient oxygen. These characteristics of the microrobot present a strategy for triggering calcium overload therapy and chlorophyll‐mediated photodynamic therapy, and such combination resulted in a ...

Airway epithelium in lung transplantation: a potential actor for post-transplant complications?

European Respiratory Review
Lung transplantation, a critical intervention for end-stage lung diseases, is frequently challenged by post-transplant complications. Indeed, primary graft dysfunction, anastomotic complications, infections and acute and chronic rejections pose ...

Under Utilization of Pancreas Transplants in Cystic Fibrosis Recipients in the United Network Organ Sharing (UNOS) Data 1987–2014 [PDF]

, 2016
Despite a high prevalence of pancreatic endocrine and exocrine insufficiency in cystic fibrosis (CF), pancreas transplantation is rarely reported. United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) data were used to examine utilization of pancreas transplant and ...

A Novel 3D High‐Throughput Phenotypic Drug Screening Pipeline to Identify Drugs with Repurposing Potential for the Treatment of Ovarian Cancer

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Ovarian cancer's high recurrence and therapy resistance demand new strategies. A high‐throughput drug screening pipeline using 3D spheroids, which showed poor concordance with 2D models, identified rapamycin as a promising candidate. In combination with cisplatin, rapamycin demonstrated significant in vitro and in vivo efficacy, highlighting the ...

Lycium‐Barbarum Polysaccharide‐Loaded Dual‐Crosslinked Rigid Hydrogel Enhances Bone Healing in Diabetic Bone Defects by Scavenging Reactive Oxygen Species

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A novel hydrogel (HLBP) incorporating natural polysaccharides from goji berries is developed to enhance diabetic bone defect healing. The hydrogel efficiently scavenges ROS, improves osteogenic differentiation, and promotes in vivo bone regeneration. This strategy offers a biocompatible and localized approach, overcoming the challenges of traditional ...
