The regulation of stem cell fate and its application in neural regeneration

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
Regulating stem cell fate is crucial for neural regeneration. This review summarizes key physical, biological, and chemical strategies and their applications in repairing nerve injuries, providing new insights for regenerative medicine. Abstract Regulating the fate of stem cells (SCs) is a key technical problem in the field of regenerative medicine and

The identification of genus, species and distribution of hard and soft ticks collected from Khorramabad district, Lorestan province, Iran

, 2014
Background : Hard ticks ( Ixodidae family) transmit Arboviruses, bacteria and parasites to human and animals. One of the most important viruses that ticks transmit from animals to human is Crimean-Congo haemorhagic fever virus, the fact that its ...

First data on cholesterol metabolism in Ornithodoros argasid ticks: Molecular and functional characterization of the N-terminal domain of Niemann-Pick C1 proteins

Cholesterol is a molecule vital for tick physiology, but ticks cannot synthesize it and rely on dietary cholesterol. Therefore, tick proteins involved in cholesterol absorption and transport, such as the Niemann-Pick type C1 domain-containing (NPC1 ...

Dynamic coronal plane knee alignment: Femoral anatomy determines kinematic curve morphology, tibial anatomy determines curve position

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose A single hip–knee–ankle angle (HKA) angle does not reflect the biomechanics of native, arthritic or prosthetic knees. Since HKA varies throughout flexion, dynamic coronal alignment is best represented by a kinematic curve plotting HKA against the range of motion.

Exploring the transcriptome of immature stages of Ornithodoros hermsi, the soft-tick vector of tick-borne relapsing fever

Scientific Reports
Blood-feeding behavior has independently evolved in arthropods multiple times. Unlike hard ticks, soft ticks employ a rapid-feeding strategy for hematophagy, and there are comparatively limited studies on the transcriptomes of these organisms. This study
