Feasibility and tolerability of whole-body, low-intensity vibration and its effects on muscle function and bone in patients with dystrophinopathies: a pilot study. [PDF]
IntroductionDystrophinopathies are X-linked muscle degenerative disorders that result in progressive muscle weakness complicated by bone loss. This study's goal was to evaluate feasibility and tolerability of whole-body, low-intensity vibration (WBLIV ...

Peripheral nerve injury necessitates alternatives to autografts. This study combines magnetic nanoparticles, oriented PCL fibers, and Ppy to create a conductive, magnetically active scaffold. In vitro and in vivo experiments demonstrated enhanced downstream pathways of calcium signaling, as revealed by transcriptome analysis.

Through a comprehensive multi‐omics analysis, this study identifies a marked reduction in Nephronectin (NPNT) expression within fibrotic lung tissue. This reduction impairs the binding capability to the ITGA3 receptor, consequently causing YAP1 to persist in the cytoplasm, where it undergoes degradation.
