Anti‐inflammatory and osteogenic effects of transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation in knee osteoarthritis rats via the regulation of the intestinal microbiota

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) improved knee osteoarthritis (KOA) in rats by regulating interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), IL‐6, and IL‐8 expressions and the bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP‐2)/transforming growth factor β (TGF‐β) signaling pathway.

Injectable Bone Cements: A Generational Framework for Bioactivity, Porosity, and Mechanobiological Design at the Nanoscale

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Key demographic, biological, and material considerations that drive the need for advanced injectable bone cement technologies. Injectable bone cements (IBCs) are widely used in orthopaedic and craniofacial applications due to their minimally invasive delivery and ability to provide early mechanical stabilisation.

Vancomycin-Polyguanidino Dendrimer Conjugates Inhibit Growth of Antibiotic-Resistant Gram-Positive and Gram-Negative Bacteria and Eradicate Biofilm-Associated S. aureus

The global challenge of antibiotic resistance necessitates the introduction of more effective antibiotics. Here we report a potentially general design strategy, exemplified with vancomycin, that improves and expands antibiotic performance. Vancomycin is

Performance of vancomycin and teicoplanin disk diffusion test in isogenic vancomycin non-susceptible Staphylococcus aureus

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2015
Introduction: Detection of heterogeneous vancomycin-intermediate Staphylococcus aureus (hVISA) is currently problematic. Although the population analysis profile with area under the curve (PAP-AUC) is the gold standard for detecting hVISA strains, this ...
