Use of biogenic nanomaterials to improve the peritoneal dialysis technique: A Translational Research Perspective [PDF]

arXiv, 2015
Intraperitoneal and catheter exit site infections are the most common complications associated with prolonged peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy used for treating the patients with end stage renal failure (ESRF). Recurrent and persistent infections often cause inflammation of the peritoneum, a condition known as infectious peritonitis and to resolve the ...

Macrophage WEE1 Directly Binds to and Phosphorylates NF‐κB p65 Subunit to Induce Inflammatory Response and Drive Atherosclerosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The present study shows that macrophage WEE1 drives NF‐κB activation and inflammatory atherosclerosis by directly phosphorylating p65 at S536. This finding illustrates a macrophage‐specific WEE1‐p65 axis in regulating inflammatory atherosclerosis and points out new directions to broaden the clinical applications for WEE1 inhibitors in atherosclerosis ...

Reactive Cysteines in Proteins are the Dominant Reductants for Platinum(IV) Prodrug Activation in Live Cells

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Pt‐Luc was developed as a pioneering bioluminescent reporter for real‐time monitoring of Pt(IV) reduction in live cells. Using this advanced reporter, we identified that reactive cysteines in proteins, rather than those in small molecules, predominantly mediate the reduction of Pt(IV) prodrugs.

Jejunal perforation secondary to blind insertion of peritoneal dialysis catheter: a case report and review of literature

BMC Nephrology, 2023
Background Peritoneal dialysis (PD) depends upon a functioning and durable access to the peritoneal cavity. Many techniques exist to insert a peritoneal catheter, showing similar outcomes and benefits.

Multi‐Omics and ‐Organ Insights into Energy Metabolic Adaptations in Early Sepsis Onset

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study shows that patients at risk of sepsis have a distinct metabolite and lipid signature, including serine and aminoadipic acid, in their serum before clinical diagnosis. A mouse model of sepsis with a compatible serum signature reveals underlying metabolic changes, including mitochondrial adaptation, altered serine‐dependent purine metabolism ...

Primary leiomyosarcoma of peritoneal cavity

Rare Tumors, 2014
Leiomyosarcomas of soft tissue are the rare tumors and the retroperitoneum is the most common site involved. We report a case of primary leiomyosarcoma of the peritoneal cavity which clinically presented with suprapubic, freely mobile, nontender mass ...

In vivo performance of antibiotic embedded electrospun PCL membranes for prevention of abdominal adhesions [PDF]

, 2007
The aim of this study was to prepare nonwoven materials from poly(-caprolactone) (PCL) and their antibiotic containing forms by electrospinning, so as to prevent postsurgery induced abdominal adhesions in rats. -Caprolactone was first polymerized by ring-

Applying a random projection algorithm to optimize machine learning model for predicting peritoneal metastasis in gastric cancer patients using CT images [PDF]

arXiv, 2020
Background and Objective: Non-invasively predicting the risk of cancer metastasis before surgery plays an essential role in determining optimal treatment methods for cancer patients (including who can benefit from neoadjuvant chemotherapy). Although developing radiomics based machine learning (ML) models has attracted broad research interest for this ...

Exosomal CMTM4 Induces Immunosuppressive Macrophages to Promote Ovarian Cancer Progression and Attenuate Anti‐PD‐1 Immunotherapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In ovarian tumors with high CMTM4 expression, exosomes transfer CMTM4 to macrophages, upregulating ICAM1 and promoting M2 polarization via p65 nuclear translocation. This suppresses immunity by increasing PD‐1 and Tregs while reducing CD8+ T cells.

A Retrospective Surgical Experience Regarding Open and Laparoscopic Procedures of the Hepatic Hydatid Cyst with an up to Date Complete Review of the Literature And a Focus On Original Romanian Techniques [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Even though the development of the recent anti-parasitic drugs has led to a high degree of efficiency, surgical treatment still remains the gold standard for a number of conditions. Material and method.
