A Hydrodynamic Bioreactor for High‐Yield Production of Extracellular Vesicles from Stem Cell Spheroids with Defined Cargo Profiling

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study harnesses hydrodynamic flows to generate, confine and stimulate stem cell spheroids, enabling the large‐scale production of extracellular vesicles (EVs). This innovative method not only streamlines spheroid formation and subsequent EV release in a single, integrated process, but also ensures the generation of EVs with enhanced biological ...

Multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification: a novel approach for genetic diagnosis of Porphyria [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Human Genetics, 2009
Porphyrias are disorders caused by the genetic defects of enzymes of the heme pathway and are characterized by such a wide genetic heterogeneity that even the molecular analysis is not always decisive for a correct diagnosis. In the past few years, deletion with a size range of few kilobase pairs have been reported.

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.

Molecular analysis of PKU-associated PAH mutations: a fast and simple genotyping test [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
: Neonatal screening for phenylketonuria (PKU, OMIM: 261600) was introduced at the end of the 1960s. We developed a rapid and simple molecular test for the most frequent phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH, Gene ID: 5053) mutations.

Deletions of NF1 gene and exons detected by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Medical Genetics, 2007
To estimate the contribution of single and multi-exon NF1 gene copy-number changes to the NF1 mutation spectrum, we analysed a series of 201 Italian patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1). Of these, 138 had previously been found, using denaturing high-performance liquid chromatography or protein truncation test, to be heterozygous for intragenic ...

Characterizing Stage‐Specific Cellular Dynamics and Microenvironmental Remodeling in Lung Adenocarcinoma by Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study integrated early‐stage patient specimens with publicly available datasets encompassing non‐malignant lung tissues and advanced‐stage LUAD through single‐cell sequencing, revealing a dynamically remodeled tumor microenvironment characterized by a hypoxia‐adapted malignant subset (C5), immunosuppressive LGMN+ macrophages, STAT1‐driven ...

Characterization of alpha thalassemic genotypes by multiplex ligation-dependent probe amplification in the Brazilian population

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research, 2011
Alpha-thalassemia is the most common inherited disorder of hemoglobin synthesis. Genomic deletions involving the alpha-globin gene cluster on chromosome 16p13.3 are the most frequent molecular causes of the disease.

Nuclear Factor I‐B Delays Liver Fibrosis by Inhibiting Chemokine Ligand 5 Transcription

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the transcription factor Nuclear Factor I‐B (NFIB) as a key suppressor of liver fibrosis. NFIB expression declines during hepatic stellate cell activation, and its overexpression reduces fibrosis in mice models. The mechanism involves NFIB directly repressing chemokine C─C motif ligand 5 (CCL5), thereby alleviating oxidative ...

Genetic instability and intratumoral heterogeneity in neuroblastoma with MYCN amplification plus 11q deletion. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Genetic analysis in neuroblastoma has identified the profound influence of MYCN amplification and 11q deletion in patients' prognosis. These two features of high-risk neuroblastoma usually occur as mutually exclusive genetic markers, although in rare ...
