Liver Stiffness Characterization of OGTLKO Mouse Model of Progressive Liver Fibrosis
Objectives O‐GlcNAcylation plays a key regulatory role in hepatic physiology, and its disruption leads to fibrosis in liver‐specific OGT knockout mice (OGTLKO), making this model valuable for studying advanced metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatohepatitis (MASH).

Colagenoma eruptivo em paciente HIV+ Eruptive collagenoma in an HIV-positive patient
Colagenomas são hamartomas do tecido conjuntivo gerados por aumento anormal do colágeno dérmico. O colagenoma eruptivo caracteriza-se por pequenos nódulos duros, assintomáticos, sem relato de trauma ou processo inflamatório prévios.

Structure, ontogeny and evolution of the patellar tendon in emus (Dromaius novaehollandiae) and other palaeognath birds [PDF]
The patella (kneecap) exhibits multiple evolutionary origins in birds, mammals, and lizards, and is thought to increase the mechanical advantage of the knee extensor muscles.

Hederagenin Attenuates Cardiac Remodeling by Targeting Phosphodiesterase 9A
ABSTRACT Background and Aim New therapeutic strategies for heart failure are urgently needed. The protective effects of cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)—protein kinase G (PKG) pathway on heart have been widely reported. Despite phosphodiesterase 9A (PDE9A) inhibitors combating cardiac remodeling, clinically available drugs are lacking. Hederagenin
