Our results showed that noninvasive electrical stimulation (NES) alone or in combination with human adipose‐derived stem cells (hADSCs)‐induced dopaminergic neuron (NES‐DN) improved the behavioral deficits and pathological features of the MPTP‐induced PD monkey model.

The Role of PEDF in the Eye, Bone, and Nervous and Immune Systems
This review highlights recent findings on the versatile inactive serpin protein, pigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) in the eye, bone, and nervous and immune systems. PEDF is highly conserved and found at the 17p13.3 locus in humans.

VMP1 promotes angiogenesis in glioblastoma (GBM) through VEGFA‐VEGFR2 signaling and activation of endothelial cells. The FDA‐approved anti‐VEGFA antibody, bevacizumab (BEV), can counteract VMP1's tumor‐promoting effect in GBM. Targeting VMP1 or its associated pathways could be a new therapeutic strategy, either alone or in combination with BEV.

Human Skin-Derived Mast Cells Spontaneously Secrete Several Angiogenesis-Related Factors
Mast cells are classically recognized as cells that cause IgE-mediated allergic reactions. However, their ability to store and secrete vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) suggests a role in vascular development and tumorigenesis.

Remote Pancreatic Response to Severe Polytrauma Correlates With Clinical Outcome
ABSTRACT Background Acute pancreatic injury can result from blunt or sharp force trauma, often leading to serious complications. While direct pancreatic trauma is associated with high rates of infection, organ failure, and mortality, little is known about the pancreas as a potential secondary target and remote trauma organ and thereby as a booster of ...
