Low‐density lipoprotein receptor‐related protein 6 (LRP6) is a key receptor for the Wnt antagonist Dickkopf1 (DKK1). DKK1 protein expression is induced in a bleomycin (BLM)‐induced lung injury model. We show that DKK1 induces proinflammatory and profibrotic genes in lung fibroblasts.

PHARMACY IN MEDICAL SCHOOLS. [PDF]
I am led to present a paper upon the teaching of pharmacy in medical colleges for somewhat selfish reasons. This selfishess is not, however, that of the individual but is the kind which seems laudable in a loyal member of the pharmaceutic brotherhood. From the standpoint of the pharmacist, I believe a better knowledge of pharmacy, its truths, laws and ...

Taurine promotes glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion in enteroendocrine L cells
Taurine, a sulfur‐containing amino acid, is likely taken up by enteroendocrine L cells via the taurine transporter. This process increases the levels of cytosolic ATP. The increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentrations and glucagon‐like peptide‐1 secretion through membrane depolarization is caused by the closure of ATP‐sensitive potassium channels ...

Unsupervised Machine Learning and EMF radiation in schools: a study of 205 schools in Greece [PDF]
The expansion of network infrastructure in Greece has raised concerns about the possible negative health effects on sensitive groups, such as children, from exposure to long-term radiofrequency electromagnetic fields (RF-EMFs). The objective of this study is to apply Unsupervised Machine Learning methods such as hierarchical clustering, in order to ...

Augmented Reality in Higher Education: a Case Study in Medical Education [PDF]
During lockdown, we piloted a variety of augmented reality (AR) experiences in collaboration with subject matter experts from different fields aiming at creating remote teaching and training experiences. In this paper, we present a case study on how AR can be used as a teaching aid for medical education with pertinent focus on remote and social ...

Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.
