A study of crystalluria: effectiveness of including hygienic-dietary recommendations in laboratory reports

open access: yesAdvances in Laboratory Medicine, 2021
To assess the effectiveness of incorporating hygienic-dietary recommendations in laboratory reports in reducing the incidence of renal colic (RC). A study was performed to compare the incidence of RC in two groups of patients who had suffered at least a ...

The epithelial barrier theory proposes a comprehensive explanation for the origins of allergic and other chronic noncommunicable diseases

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Exposure to common noxious agents (1), including allergens, pollutants, and micro‐nanoplastics, can cause epithelial barrier damage (2) in our body's protective linings. This may trigger an immune response to our microbiome (3). The epithelial barrier theory explains how this process can lead to chronic noncommunicable diseases (4) affecting organs ...

X,Y,Z-Waves: Extended Structures in Nonlinear Lattices [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Motivated by recent experimental and theoretical results on optical X-waves, we propose a new type of waveforms in 2D and 3D discrete media -- multi-legged extended nonlinear structures (ENS), built as arrays of lattice solitons (tiles or stones, in the ...

Antibacterial Effect of Zinc Oxide-Based Nanomaterials on Environmental Biodeteriogens Affecting Historical Buildings

open access: yesNanomaterials, 2020
The colonization of microorganisms and their subsequent interaction with stone substrates under different environmental conditions encourage deterioration of materials by multiple mechanisms resulting in changes in the original color, appearance and ...

Archaeal protein containing domain of unknown function 2193 undergoes oligomeric reconfiguration upon iron–sulfur cluster binding

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This work presents the characterization of MvoDUF2193, a Methanococcus voltae (Mvo) protein from the domain of unknown function (DUF) 2193 family. We demonstrate that MvoDUF2193 binds a single [4Fe–4S] cluster per subunit and that cluster occupancy regulates the transition from an apo tetramer to a [4Fe–4S] monomeric form. This structural transition is

Is Every Stone Urinary Stone A Rare Case of Stone

open access: yesPediatric Urology Case Reports, 2014
Primary vaginal stones in children are extremely rare medical condition butimportant because they are often mistaken for urinary stones. Here, we presentthe case of an 11-year-old girl with multiple vaginal stones.

Efficacy of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, with modified position of the machine head in the treatment of lower calyceal stones in obese patients

open access: yesUrology Annals, 2022
Context: Extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) has inferior results in the lower calyceal stones, especially in obese patients. Aims: This study aimed at evaluating of the efficacy of extracorporeal shockwave lithotripsy, with modified position of

The atypical KRASQ22K mutation directs TGF‐β response towards partial epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition in patient‐derived colorectal cancer tumoroids

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
TGF‐β has a complex role in cancer, exhibiting both tumor‐suppressive and tumor‐promoting properties. Using a series of differentiated tumoroids, derived from different stages and mutational background of colorectal cancer patients, we replicate this duality of TGF‐β in vitro. Notably, the atypical but highly aggressive KRASQ22K mutation rendered early‐

Escape from TGF‐β‐induced senescence promotes aggressive hallmarks in epithelial hepatocellular carcinoma cells

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Chronic TGF‐β exposure drives epithelial HCC cells from a senescent state to a TGF‐β resistant mesenchymal phenotype. This transition is characterized by the loss of Smad3‐mediated signaling, escape from senescence, enhanced invasiveness and metastatic potential, and upregulation of key resistance modulators such as MARK1 and GRM8, ultimately promoting
