Tumor‐Derived Alpha‐1 Antitrypsin Promotes Liver Metastasis of Colorectal Cancer Through the Neutrophil Extracellular Traps–CCDC25 Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Liver metastasis is a leading cause of mortality in colorectal cancer (CRC), where the inflammatory tumor microenvironment, specifically neutrophil infiltration, significantly promotes metastatic colonization. This study reveals a pro‐metastatic role for alpha‐1 antitrypsin (A1AT) in CRC liver metastasis via a dual mechanism involving ...

Lung volumes identify an at-risk group in persons with prolonged secondhand tobacco smoke exposure but without overt airflow obstruction. [PDF]

, 2018
IntroductionExposure to secondhand smoke (SHS) is associated with occult obstructive lung disease as evident by abnormal airflow indices representing small airway disease despite having preserved spirometry (normal forced expiratory volume in 1 s-to ...

Gorab deficiency in skin dermis accelerates aging and is associated with dysregulation of RCHY1‐mediated P53 ubiquitination

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Based on a dermis fibroblast Gorab knockout mouse model, this study revealed that Gorab deficiency promotes skin aging by influencing RCHY1, causing a decrease in P53 ubiquitination, damaging the activity of HDAC2, further resulting in the accumulation of aging‐related proteins (P53, P21, P16) and a reduction in extracellular matrix (ECM) components ...

Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema: Pulmonary Function Testing and a Pathophysiology Perspective

Medicina, 2019
Combined pulmonary fibrosis and emphysema (CPFE) has been increasingly recognized over the past 10−15 years as a clinical entity characterized by rather severe imaging and gas exchange abnormalities, but often only mild impairment in spirometric ...

Dr. Hans Kohn and the political takeover of the Berlin Medical Society by the National Socialist regime in 1933

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract To solidify their power over society, totalitarian regimes will usually eliminate any dissent, any perceived threats early on. These threats include not only political enemies but also educated and independent segments of society, such as professional associations.
