A Model Based Systems Engineering Framework for Digital Twins in Medical Device Innovation

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Medical device development remains constrained by development processes centered largely in the physical domain. These methods limited early understanding of system behavior and prolonged timelines relative to other innovation pathways. Such limitations increase prototype cycle duration and the number of iterations required to resolve design ...

Therapeutic targeting of bleomycin‐induced pulmonary fibrosis by human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicles and/or pirfenidone: Impact of sex in mature adult mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with limited therapeutic options. This study compared the therapeutic effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (BM‐MSC‐EVs) with an IPF treatment, pirfenidone (PFD), in mature adult mice with established pulmonary ...

Suppression of Indoleamine 2,3‐Dioxygenase Enhances Immune Responses to the Therapeutic Vaccine for Chronic Hepatitis B

open access: yesHepatology Research, EarlyView.
Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase (IDO) activity modulates immune responses to the therapeutic HBV vaccine NASVAC. Genetic or pharmacological suppression of IDO enhanced vaccine efficacy in mice, and lower serum kynurenine levels predicted favorable responses in humans, suggesting IDO as both a therapeutic target and a biomarker.
