Lamellarin D Acts as an Inhibitor of Type I Collagen Production
COL1A2 gene, encoding type I collagen, is a key target for pulmonary fibrosis. We established a screening system to identify small molecules that inhibit COL1A2 gene expression. Using this system, we screen a library of compounds and identify lamellarin D as a potent inhibitor of COL1A2 expression, suggesting lamellarin D is a promising new lung ...

Assessing the Role of Volumetric Brain Information in Multiple Sclerosis Progression [PDF]
Multiple sclerosis is a chronic autoimmune disease that affects the central nervous system. Understanding multiple sclerosis progression and identifying the implicated brain structures is crucial for personalized treatment decisions. Deformation-based morphometry utilizes anatomical magnetic resonance imaging to quantitatively assess volumetric brain ...

Autopsy findings in cases of fatal COVID‐19 vaccine‐induced myocarditis
Abstract COVID‐19 vaccines have been linked to myocarditis, which, in some circumstances, can be fatal. This systematic review aims to investigate potential causal links between COVID‐19 vaccines and death from myocarditis using post‐mortem analysis.

Longitudinal Missing Data Imputation for Predicting Disability Stage of Patients with Multiple Sclerosis [PDF]
Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a chronic disease characterized by progressive or alternate impairment of neurological functions (motor, sensory, visual, and cognitive). Predicting disease progression with a probabilistic and time-dependent approach might help in suggesting interventions that can delay the progression of the disease.
