Improvement in the ability to have sex in patients with Peyronie's disease treated with Collagenase Clostridium histolyticum

BJUI Compass, Volume 4, Issue 1, Page 66-73, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Objective To describe the results of intralesional Collagenase Clostridium histolyticum (CCH) treatment in patients with Peyronie's disease (PD) in real‐world setting. PD is characterized by curvature of the erect penis caused by fibrotic tissue in the tunica albuginea.

Plaque Classification in Coronary Arteries from IVOCT Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks and Transfer Learning [PDF]

, 2018
Advanced atherosclerosis in the coronary arteries is one of the leading causes of deaths worldwide while being preventable and treatable. In order to image atherosclerotic lesions (plaque), intravascular optical coherence tomography (IVOCT) can be used.

Macrophage HM13/SPP Enhances Foamy Macrophage Formation and Atherogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Previous research suggests that AIP may prevent atherogenic foamy macrophage formation. This study reveals that AIP, via its chaperone interaction with AHR, inhibits p38‐c‐JUN‐mediated transactivation of HM13, which encodes the ERAD protease HM13/SPP. HM13/SPP promotes foamy macrophage formation in addition to atherogenesis and plaque foamy macrophage ...

Lysophosphatidic acid triggers mast cell-driven atherosclerotic plaque destabilization by increasing vascular inflammation[S]

Journal of Lipid Research, 2013
Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a bioactive lysophospholipid, accumulates in the atherosclerotic plaque. It has the capacity to activate mast cells, which potentially exacerbates plaque progression.

Depletion of Hepatic SREBP2 Protects Against Hypercholesterolemia and Atherosclerosis through the ANGPTL3‐LPL Axis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals a novel crosstalk between hepatic SREBP2‐mediated cholesterol biosynthesis pathway and peripheral lipoprotein lipase‐mediated lipolysis pathway in the regulation of systemic lipid metabolism. Notably, the lipid‐lowering effects of SREBP2 inhibition are independent of a functional LDL receptor, highlighting the potential of acute ...

The roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in ischemic stroke susceptibility

Brain and Behavior, Volume 12, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Background Ischemic stroke (IS), a multifactorial and polygenic disease, is the most common cause of death. This study aimed to determine the roles of MMP8/MMP10 polymorphisms in IS susceptibility in the Chinese Han population. Methods MMP8 rs1940475 and rs3765620, and MMP10 rs17860949 from 700 IS patients and 700 controls were genotyped by ...

PhotoPoint Photodynamic Therapy Promotes Stabilization of Atherosclerotic Plaques and Inhibits Plaque Progression

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008
The purpose of this study was to determine how photodynamic therapy (PDT) promotes stabilization and reduction of regional atherosclerosis.Photodynamic therapy, a combination of photosensitizer and targeted light to promote cell apoptosis, has been shown to reduce atherosclerotic plaque inflammation.Forty New Zealand White rabbits were fed with ...

DNA‐PKcs‐Driven YAP1 Phosphorylation and Nuclear Translocation: a Key Regulator of Ferroptosis in Hyperglycemia‐Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in Type 1 Diabetes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In the context of chronic hyperglycemia, a DDR is initiated, leading to the pathological activation of DNA‐PKcs in the diabetic heart. This activated DNA‐PKcs directly interacts with and phosphorylates YAP1 at Thr226, thereby increasing the nuclear expression of YAP1.

CXCL13 Damages Blood Spinal Cord Barrier by Promoting RNF6/Sqstm1‐Ubiquitination Induced Autophagy in Experimental Allergic Encephalomyelitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In multiple sclerosis, the disruption of the blood‐spinal cord barrier (BSCB) induced by CXCL13 facilitates the infiltration of inflammatory cells into the central nervous system, resulting in demyelination and neuronal injury. Mechanistically, the deleterious impact of CXCL13 on the BSCB is associated with a reduction in tight junction protein ...
