Objective We employed global genetic deletion of CD14 and intra‐articular CD14 blockade across multiple murine osteoarthritis (OA) models that vary in severity of pathology and rate of progression to test the hypothesis that CD14 inhibition attenuates synovial inflammation and associated pain during disease progression.

Examining changes in serum levels of Irisin and Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor in inactive middle-aged men in two phases of training and detraining [PDF]
Introduction: Resistance training increases irisin and brain-derived neurotrophic factor secretion, impacting myogenic regulatory factors and muscle function, but maintaining these adaptations remains a challenging challenge.

Exploring new avenues: Psychedelic‐assisted therapy for young people
Rates of mental illness in young people are increasing, whereas the development of novel mental health treatments has not significantly progressed. Psychedelic‐assisted therapy, using substances such as psilocybin and 3,4‐methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), has shown potential in the treatment of mental illnesses in the adult population, including ...

Oocyte–cumulus cell interaction: a key factor in early embryo development
ABSTRACT The evaluation of oocyte competence is a fundamental step in achieving successful outcomes following assisted reproduction techniques (ART). At present, however, conventional oocyte maturation assessment is carried out by morphological observation, which is a subjective method that does not consider molecular features.

Impact of cigarette smoking on neurotrophic factors: insight to BDNF, GDNF, and NGF alterations
Background Cigarette smoking impacts neurotrophic factors, including brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF), glial cell line-derived neurotrophic factor (GDNF), and nerve growth factor (NGF), through epigenetic modifications like DNA methylation.
