Metformin enhances external urethral sphincter integrity and restores continence via AMPK activation in a rat model of stress urinary incontinence

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The pathogenesis of stress urinary incontinence (SUI) is intimately associated with injury to the external urethral sphincter (EUS). In this study, we established an SUI model induced by double vaginal distension and demonstrated that metformin treatment activated the AMPK signaling in the EUS tissue.

Fibroblast Transcriptomics in Molecular Diagnostics of a Comprehensive Dystonia Cohort

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Genomic sequencing leaves >50% of dystonia‐affected individuals without a diagnosis. Where DNA‐oriented approaches remain insufficient, integrating multiomics is essential to advance genome interpretation. Herein, we incorporated RNA sequencing (RNA‐seq) data from 167 patients with dystonia across a range of ages and presentations. Methods We

Miniaturized Conductometric Biosensor for Rapid Detection of TNF‐α in Saliva

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
A miniaturized conductometric sensor detects TNF‐α at femtomolar levels with high selectivity. The device enables noninvasive testing using pooled human saliva and supports smartphone‐based, real‐time resistance readings. This portable biosensor offers a practical alternative for monitoring TNF‐α, providing new opportunities for diabetes and related ...

A Multiepitope‐Based Lateral Flow Assay for Leprosy Antibodies

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
An innovative lateral flow assay for leprosy diagnosis is based on gold nanoparticles and synthetic Mycobacterium leprae epitopes conjugated to keyhole limpet hemocyanin protein to enhance antibody detection. This strategy provides a rapid, accurate, and low‐cost approach for resource‐limited settings, enabling the early detection of infection. Leprosy

Radium Speciation in Simulated Digestive Biofluids: Insights from Electrospray Ionization Mass Spectrometry and Thermodynamic Modeling

Analysis &Sensing, EarlyView.
Electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI‐MS) combined with thermodynamic modeling provides the first direct characterization of radium speciation in synthetic gastrointestinal biofluids. Free Ra2+ ions predominate with minimal protein binding and negligible EDTA complexation. Crown ethers enable effective Ra complexation.

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of
