Predicting neuropathy and reactions in leprosy at diagnosis and before incident events. Results from the INFIR cohort study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
BackgroundLeprosy is a disease of skin and peripheral nerves. The process of nerve injury occurs gradually through the course of the disease as well as acutely in association with reactions. The INFIR (ILEP Nerve Function Impairment and Reactions) Cohort

Genipin‐Crosslinked, Silane‐Anchored 3D Tumor–Stroma Microtissues for High‐Content On‐Chip Drug Testing

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We describe a microfluidic tumor‐stroma co‐culture model, engineered to resist collagen‐hydrogel contraction driven by fibroblast activity. Surface silanization with APTES covalently anchors the matrix to the chip, while Genipin crosslinking progressively increases stiffness and elasticity without harming cells. This supports >10 days of co‐culture and

Wound trauma mediated inflammatory signaling attenuates a tissue regenerative response in MRL/MpJ mice

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2010
Background Severe trauma can induce pathophysiological responses that have marked inflammatory components. The development of systemic inflammation following severe thermal injury has been implicated in immune dysfunction, delayed wound healing, multi ...

Serum antioxidants as predictors of the adult respiratory distress syndrome in septic patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) can develop as a complication of various disorders, including sepsis, but it has not been possible to identify which of the patients at risk will develop this serious disorder.

Thermal necrosis assisted dental implant removal: a 3-dimensional finite element analysis

open access: yes, 2022
Dental implants are a common and popular alternative for the replacement of missing teeth. A low degree of regulated thermal necrosis at the bone-implant interface can help avoid the loss of healthy tissue and the risk of damage caused by the removal of ...

The Ile585Val TRPV1 variant is involved in risk of painful knee osteoarthritis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Objective To assess if a coding variant in the gene encoding transient receptor potential cation channel, subfamily V, member 1 ( TRPV1 ) is associated with genetic risk of painful knee osteoarthritis (OA). Methods The Ile585Val TRPV1 variant encoded

Cold Atmospheric Plasma‐Activated Decellularized Extracellular Matrix Gel as a Tumor‐Infiltrating Immunoactivation Platform for Post‐Surgical Cancer Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
An injectable cold atmospheric plasma‐activated decellularized tumor extracellular matrix hydrogel is introduced as a post‐surgical immunoactivation platform. The engineered gel attracts residual tumor cells and induces immunogenic cell death, reshaping the tumor microenvironment and eliciting systemic antitumor immunity. In combination with checkpoint

Mechanically Spatio‐Chimeric Fibrin Assembly Enables Vascular‐Integrated Muscle Reconstruction for Volumetric Muscle Loss Repair

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
SPARC (spatio‐chimeric, plasma‐based, anisotropic, and shear‐responsive construct) that integrates myogenic and vascular microenvironments within a single construct. The dual‐modulus matrix directs aligned myotube formation and endothelial network development, enabling a vascularized muscle implant that seamlessly anastomoses with host tissue and ...
