From scarring to healing: Emerging regenerative therapies for pulmonary fibrosis using MSCs and exosomes

Clinical and Translational Discovery, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
MSCs exert anti‐inflammatory, anti‐fibrotic and regenerative effects in pulmonary fibrosis. MSC‐derived exosomes reproduce many therapeutic benefits of parental MSCs. Preconditioning and genetic modification improve MSC therapeutic performance. Current preclinical and clinical evidence supports the translational potential of MSC‐based therapies ...

Spinal Cord Schistosomiasis: A Rare and Severe Presentation of a Common Disease—A Case Report and Review of Literature

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 7, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Spinal cord schistosomiasis (SCS) is a rare but potentially disabling manifestation of Schistosoma mansoni infection caused by ectopic deposition of parasite eggs within the spinal cord via Batson's vertebral venous plexus, resulting in granulomatous inflammation and neurological injury.

Extracellular Vesicles of Giardia duodenalis: Unravelling Their Virulence Factors and Potential to Induce Protection Against Experimental Giardiasis

Journal of Extracellular Biology, Volume 5, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are key mediators of intercellular communication, enabling trans‐kingdom exchange of proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites. In Giardia duodenalis, EVs contribute to parasite survival, host–pathogen interactions, and immune modulation.
