Immunonutrition before esophagectomy: Impact on immune surveillance mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Preoperative oral immunonutrition was demonstrated to improve immune response and to decrease the infection rate in patients with cancer. This study aimed to assess how immunonutrition could influence the immune cell response in the mucosal ...

Elevated Apolipoprotein E Expression in Hippocampal Microglia Drives Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In temporal lobe epilepsy, hippocampal APOE is markedly upregulated predominantly in microglia. APOE overexpression in microglia drives TLR4 and cGAS/STING‐dependent neuroinflammation, engages bidirectional crosstalk with neurons and astrocytes, increases neuronal excitability, and perturbs hippocampal lipid metabolism. These findings suggest that APOE‐

tRNA‐Derived Fragment tRF‐22 Promotes Immunosuppression by Inhibiting HnRNPAB Ubiquitination in Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
tRF‐22 fosters an immunosuppressive and pro‐oncogenic tumor microenvironment in ESCC by stabilizing hnRNPAB against TRIM25‐mediated ubiquitination and enhancing TGFβ2 expression, which increases PMN‐MDSCs infiltration and suppresses CD8+ T cells. Targeting tRF‐22 or blocking TGFβ signalling improves anti‐PD1 response, offering a promising therapeutic ...

Robot Autonomy for Surgery

open access: yes, 2017
Autonomous surgery involves having surgical tasks performed by a robot operating under its own will, with partial or no human involvement. There are several important advantages of automation in surgery, which include increasing precision of care due to ...

Meta‐analysis of oral antibiotics, in combination with preoperative intravenous antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation the day before surgery, compared with intravenous antibiotics and mechanical bowel preparation alone to reduce surgical‐site infections in elective colorectal surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Surgical‐site infection (SSI) is a potentially serious complication following colorectal surgery. The present systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to investigate the effect of preoperative oral antibiotics and mechanical bowel ...

Chronically Stable, High‐Resolution Micro‐Electrocorticographic Brain‐Computer Interfaces for Real‐Time Motor Decoding

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A high‐resolution micro‐electrocorticographic (µECoG) brain‐computer interface (BCI) for real‐time motor decoding is reported. The application of flexible, scalable µECoG electrode arrays overcomes the insufficient spatial resolution in conventional ECoG BCIs.

KLK1 as an Epithelial‐Specific Brake Inhibits Colorectal Tumorigenesis by Suppressing B1R‐Mediated Fibroblast Phenotypic Transition

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
KLK1 downregulation disrupts the intestinal mucosal barrier and impairs kallikrein‐kinin signaling, thereby reducing Lys‐des‐Arg9‐BK production. This enhances B1R activation on ADAMDEC1⁺ fibroblasts, promoting inflammation and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. The resulting iCAFs promote colorectal cancer progression, highlighting a novel KLK1‐B1R
