Exogenous Lipocalin 2 Ameliorates Acute Rejection in a Mouse Model of Renal Transplantation
American Journal of Transplantation, Volume 16, Issue 3, Page 808-820, March 2016., 2016 Abstract Lipocalin 2 (Lcn2) is rapidly produced by damaged nephron epithelia and is one of the most promising new markers of renal injury, delayed graft function and acute allograft rejection (AR); however, the functional importance of Lcn2 in renal transplantation is largely unknown. To understand the role of Lcn2 in renal AR, kidneys from Balb/c mice

Stem Cells International, Volume 2015, Issue 1, 2015., 2015 Application of mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) has been proposed for solid organ transplantation based on their potent immunomodulatory effects. Since side effects from the injection of large cells cannot be excluded, the hypothesis rises that extracellular vesicles (EV) may cause immunomodulatory effects comparable to MSC without additional side ...

Two Faces of TGF‐Beta1 in Breast Cancer
Mediators of Inflammation, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 Breast cancer (BC) is potentially life‐threatening malignancy that still causes high mortality among women. Scientific research in this field is focused on deeper understanding of pathogenesis and progressing of BC, in order to develop relevant diagnosis and improve therapeutic treatment. Multifunctional cytokine TGF‐β1 is one of many factors that have

Immunological Barriers to Stem Cell Therapy in the Central Nervous System
Stem Cells International, Volume 2014, Issue 1, 2014., 2014 The central nervous system is vulnerable to many neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease that result in the extensive loss of neuronal cells. Stem cells have the ability to differentiate into many types of cells, which make them ideal for treating such disorders.

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 The complementary role of hyperglycemia and p27kip1 suppression on islet beta cell regeneration was investigated in a syngeneic mouse model. p27kip1 gene silencing was performed by infecting islets of C57BL/6 with shRNA lentiviral particles. At 54 hours after viral infection, p27kip1 protein content in cultured targeting islets was 22% of that in ...

Osteogenic Small Molecule FK506 for Enhanced Bone Formation in a Rabbit Ankle Fusion Model
Journal of Orthopaedic Research, Volume 43, Issue 10, Page 1805-1812, October 2025.ABSTRACT Non‐union remains a significant complication following ankle fusion procedures, underscoring the need for effective osteogenic adjuvants to improve boney healing and fusion outcomes. This study investigates the osteogenic potential of FK506 (Tacrolimus), both in vitro and in vivo, for enhanced ankle fusion.

Advanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 20, May 29, 2025.Pancreatic β cell loss by cellular stress contributes to diabetes pathogenesis. The study demonstrates that WFS1–ZnT8–zinc axis regulates vicious cycle of zinc transportation and cellular stress in pancreatic β cell. Based on that, the study applies a strategy for compound screening targeting ZnT8 based on human models, and identifies anisomycin, as a ...

Molecular Medicine Reports, 2018 The present study investigated the effects of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) in transplantation-associated arteriosclerosis by observing their expression in transplanted aortas in rats. Allogenic and isogenic abdominal aortic transplantations were performed and grafts were removed from the recipients
