Assessment of liver fibrosis and associated risk factors in HIV-infected individuals using transient elastography and serum biomarkers [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Background: Liver fibrosis in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-infected individuals is mostly attributable to co-infection with hepatitis B or C. The impact of other risk factors, including prolonged exposure to combined antiretroviral therapy (cART ...

Genome‐wide network analysis identifies the lncRNA‐92467/miR‐205‐5p/PTPRM/CAMs axis in a rat model of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of hypoxic pulmonary hypertension (HPH) remains unclear. In this study, we explored its key regulatory mechanisms using animal models, RNA sequencing, and cellular assays. We found that lncRNA‐92467 functions as a ceRNA, binding miR‐205‐5p, and thereby upregulating PTPRM, inhibiting abnormal proliferation and migration of endothelial ...

Nasal fibrosis: long-term follow up of four cases of eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Eosinophilic angiocentric fibrosis is a rare, benign cause of submucosal thickening and fibrosis within the upper respiratory tract. It predominantly affects the nose although cases have been reported in the subglottis.

Functional Polymer‐Engineered Magnetic Nanoparticles as Dual‐Modal Theragnostic Probes for Early Alzheimer's Disease Detection and Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
The nanoparticle consists of a 3 nm iron oxide core functionalized with an amphiphilic polymer coating containing Aβ‐targeting DSA moieties and biocompatible PEG chains. This design supports measurable transport in a BBB‐related model and specific interaction with Aβ species, while providing MRI contrast enhancement for diagnosis and therapeutic ...

Morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve: New insights for comparative studies in mammals

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract New data on the equine aortic valve obtained using advanced techniques is especially important given the greater availability of animal models for translational research. Here we characterized the morphological and morphometric aspects of the equine aortic valve from 60 healthy hearts collected at equine abattoirs.

SOX6 is expressed in various cell lineages in the developing mouse heart and contributes to proper valvuloseptal development

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.
