Homologous membrane wrapped ZIF‐8 nanoparticles accelerate differentiation of neural stem cell for spinal cord injury therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
Homologous membrane wrapped ZIF‐8 nanoparticles were proposed to improve biocompatibility and targeting ability to neural stem cells (NSCs). ZIF‐8‐SCM NPs exhibit pH responsiveness, thereby generating an intracellular Zn2+ storm to accelerate neural differentiation through calcium and MAPK signaling pathways. Moreover, they promote function recovery in

Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis as the First Manifestation of Thyrotropin-Secreting Pituitary Adenoma

Case Reports in Endocrinology, 2019
Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis is an unusual neurological manifestation of thyrotoxicosis, and even rarer when it occurs in thyrotropin-secreting pituitary adenoma, only 6 cases having been previously reported. We describe a case of pituitary microadenoma

Electron compensation‐gated nanomotor for immunomodulation and microenvironment remodeling in bacterial pneumonia therapy

BMEMat, EarlyView.
A nanomotor featuring an “electronic lock” via electron compensation in an Au‐Ag alloy ensures therapeutic precision. Near‐infrared light acts as a key, unlocking on‐demand Ag+ release for synergistic bactericidal action and microenvironment remodeling to potently treat bacterial pneumonia. Abstract Bacterial pneumonia treatment is severely hampered by

Leading the Loop: Anchor‐Led Orchestration in Nascent Circular Ecosystems—A Qualitative Case Study

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The transition towards a circular economy necessitates coordinated, systemic change across value chains. Yet the role of anchor firms in initiating and orchestrating nascent circular ecosystems remains underexplored. Using an inductive, qualitative single‐case design, we analyse a German mid‐sized entrepreneurial firm, drawing on 21 interviews

The Global Supply Chain Resilience Paradox as an Ethical Dilemma: Trade‐offs, Tensions, and Multilevel Strategies in Times of Crisis and Disruption

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research examines the resilience paradox in global supply chains, exploring how trade‐offs between economic and social‐ecological resilience escalate into managerial dilemmas under high environmental uncertainty. Using an abductive theory extension approach, we analyse a multinational automotive supply chain case during the Covid‐19 ...

Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Hypokalemic Periodic Paralysis in a 10-year-old Child: Case Study

Вопросы современной педиатрии
Background. Hypokalemic periodic paralysis is a rare form of paralysis in children resulting from genetically determined electrolyte disorders. Its diagnosis is complicated due to transient nonspecific symptoms. Case description. The disease onset was at

Reflex seizures and epilepsy surgery: A network approach case‐based exploration

Epileptic Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Context Reflex seizures (RS) are defined by their consistent provocation by specific stimuli, encompassing a broad range from elementary sensory inputs to complex cognitive tasks. While RS are often encountered in clinical practice, their surgical management remains sparsely reported and poorly systematized.

Thyrotoxic periodic paralysis with bone metabolism disruption: a case report

Journal of the Pakistan Medical Association
Thyrotoxic Periodic Paralysis (TPP) is a rare condition associated with hyperthyroidism, particularly in young males. This report presents the case of a 20-year-old male with TPP complicated by decreased bone mineral density (BMD).
