Secondary cytotoxicity of (crosslinked) dermal sheep collagen during repeated exposure to human fibroblasts [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
We investigated commercially available dermal sheep collagen either cross-linked with hexamethylenediisocyanate, or cross-linked with glutaraldehyde. In previous in vitro studies we could discriminate primary, i.e. extractable, and secondary cytotoxicity,

Expert Perspective: Diagnosis and Treatment of Castleman Disease

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Castleman disease (CD) is a major diagnostic challenge for rheumatologists. Unicentric CD (UCD) involves one enlarged lymph node region, whereas multicentric CD (MCD) involves multiple enlarged lymph node regions. Both UCD and MCD may exhibit a wide range of symptoms that overlap with other immune‐mediated conditions.

A Statistical Study of the Parasite of the Unionidae [PDF]

open access: yes, 1899
The studies on the quantitative occurrence of parasites in different species of the Unlonirke which form the basis of the present paper were made at the Illinois Biological Station, at Havana, early in the summers of 1896 and 1897 and continued both ...

Bifurcations in valveless pumping techniques from a coupled fluid-structure-electrophysiology model in heart development [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We explore an embryonic heart model that couples electrophysiology and muscle-force generation to flow induced using a $2D$ fluid-structure interaction framework based on the immersed boundary method.

Congenital Absence of the Pericardium [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation, 2001
A 37-year-old, physically active man presented for evaluation of nonexertional chest pain. He described it as sharp, left-sided, and nonradiating. The review of systems was unremarkable. He had had no previous thoracic surgery. Physical examination revealed a nonpalpable apical impulse, with no other abnormal findings.

Epidermal Interferon kappa drives cutaneous lupus‐like lesions, photosensitivity and systemic autoimmunity in vivo

open access: yesArthritis &Rheumatology, Accepted Article.
Objective Keratinocyte‐derived interferon kappa (IFN‐κ) is chronically overexpressed in human non‐lesional systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) skin. Recent evidence suggests that epidermal signals instruct the immune system in SLE, but whether epidermal IFN‐κ alone is sufficient to drive lupus phenotypes has not been investigated.

A bioprinted cardiac patch composed of cardiac-specific extracellular matrix and progenitor cells for heart repair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Congenital heart defects are present in 8 of 1000 newborns and palliative surgical therapy has increased survival. Despite improved outcomes, many children develop reduced cardiac function and heart failure requiring transplantation.

Fostamatinib and the risk of acute aortic dissection in immune thrombocytopenia

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by platelet destruction. While most patients respond to first‐ or second‐line therapies, a small subset is multirefractory. Fostamatinib, an oral spleen tyrosine kinase (SYK) inhibitor, is a therapeutic option in these cases.

Exosome as bioactive nanovesicle for diagnostic and therapeutic applications in periodontitis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review introduces the mechanism that exosomes participate in the pathogenesis of periodontitis and their potential as biomarkers for early diagnosis and summarizes the application of cell‐ or plant‐derived exosomes or engineered exosomes in periodontitis or periodontal regeneration while proposing the perspective of translational application of ...
