Bacteroides Fragilis‐Derived Outer Membrane Vesicles Deliver MiR‐5119 and Alleviate Colitis by Targeting PD‐L1 to Inhibit GSDMD‐Mediated Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacteroides fragilis‐derived outer membrane vesicles deliver miR‐5119 and alleviate colitis by targeting PD‐L1 to inhibit GSDMD‐mediated neutrophil extracellular trap formation. Abstract Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) results from a breakdown in the symbiotic relationship between the intestinal commensal microflora and the mucosal immune system.

Death in the Eyes of the Beholder

open access: yesInternational Journal of Organ Transplantation Medicine, 2010
The US Uniform Determination of Death Act provides two alternatives for determining death—the circulatorycriteria and the neurological criteria—yet history and the public’s current understanding of death in the US may mean that only brain death criteria ...

Calpain‐2‐Mediated Endothelial Focal Adhesion Disruption in Thoracic Aortic Dissection

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The elevated expression of Capn2 in endothelial cells activates focal adhesion signaling by cleaving Talin1 and assembling Itgav, which compromises the integrity of the endothelial barrier and induces vascular inflammation. Inhibition of calpain through both pharmacological and transgenic approaches has effectively suppressed the onset and progression ...

Mechanical Biomimetic Nanocomposites for Multidimensional Treatment of Arterial Thrombosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, a mechanical biomimetic nanocomposite is developed, guided by photoacoustic imaging, to achieve highly efficient and safe thrombolysis through the synergistic effects of photothermal therapy and pharmacological intervention. Most notably, the nanoparticle improves the microenvironment of arterial thrombi, marked by high shear stress and ...

Extending the Carrel system to mediate in the organ and tissue allocation processes: a first approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
In this paper we extend the formalization of Carrel, a virtual organization for the procurement of tissues for transplantation purposes, in order to model also the procurement of human organs for transplants. We will focus in the organ allocation process
