Maternal Sirolimus Treatment Reverses Cardiac Rhabdomyoma‐Induced Hydrops Fetalis in a Twin Gestation With Tuberous Sclerosis Complex

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cardiac rhabdomyomas are often the presenting sign of tuberous sclerosis complex (TSC). Prior reports have shown that maternal sirolimus treatment can reduce rhabdomyomas. We used maternal sirolimus to reverse hydrops fetalis due to a massive cardiac rhabdomyoma in a twin gestation.

A Drosophila model of prion disease and its metabolic changes in the brain

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We developed a Drosophila model for prion disease, and flies were capable of expressing the hamster prion protein (HaPrP) under the control of the GAL4/UAS system. The model exhibited some characteristics of the disease in mammals and displayed alterations in protein, sphingolipid, and carbohydrate metabolism. Preliminary applications have demonstrated

Contemporary management of pain in cirrhosis: Toward precision therapy for pain

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Chronic pain is highly prevalent in patients with cirrhosis and is associated with poor health‐related quality of life and poor functional status. However, there is limited guidance on appropriate pain management in this population, and pharmacologic treatment can be harmful, leading to adverse outcomes, such as gastrointestinal bleeding ...

Development of a novel rat long-bone nonunion model and efficacy evaluation of a prostaglandin EP4 selective agonist (AKDS001) combined with iliac bone grafting

open access: yesBone & Joint Research
Aims: Nonunion occurs when a fracture fails to heal permanently, often necessitating surgical intervention to stimulate the bone healing response. Current animal models of long-bone nonunion do not adequately replicate human pathological conditions ...

Systematic review of the subcutaneous air pouch model using monosodium urate and calcium pyrophosphate and recommendations for studying crystal‐related arthropathies

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Simplified schematic for generation of the subcutaneous air pouch model in the rodent. On day 0 and 4, air is injected into the subcutaneous space on the dorsal surface of the rodent to generate a cavity analogous to a synovial joint. On day 6, monosodium urate (MSU) or calcium pyrophosphate (CPP) crystals are injected into the pouch to stimulate ...

Essential lipid autacoids rewire mitochondrial energy efficiency in metabolic dysfunction‐associated fatty liver disease

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Increased liver content of DHA‐derived small lipid autacoids (i.e resolvin D1 and maresin 1) associates with enhanced mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation, fatty acid β‐oxidation and bioenergetic metabolic flux. These features provide hepatic protection from steatotic, pro‐inflammatory and fibrogenic insults.

Divergent gene expression of PTGS1 and PTGS2 along the disease course of chronic myeloid leukaemia

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology
IntroductionChronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a chronic myeloproliferative disorder caused by the reciprocal translocation of chromosomes 9 and 22. This genetic abnormality leads to the uncontrolled proliferation of myeloid lineage cells, ultimately ...

Progress in Biomimetic Microdevices for Anticancer Drug Screening and their Potential for Enhancing In Vivo Efficacy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Biomimetic microdevices are redefining anticancer drug screening by mimicking complex tumor microenvironments. This review highlights advances in microfluidic systems, cell microarrays, and in vivo‐like models, offering new insights into drug efficacy prediction and personalized medicine. The development of effective anticancer drugs remains a critical

Emergence of highly profibrotic and proinflammatory Lrat+Fbln2+ HSC subpopulation in alcoholic hepatitis

open access: yesHepatology, EarlyView., 2022
Lrat+ quiescent hepatic stellate cells (qHSC) give rise to Lrat+Fbln2+ activated HSC (aHSC) in alcohol‐associated hepatitis and this subpopulation is highly profibrotic, inflammatory, and immunoregulatory based on their single cell transcriptomic profile. Abstract Background and Aims Relative roles of HSCs and portal fibroblasts in alcoholic hepatitis (
