The left atrial bacterial vegetative mass due to Corynebacterium striatum as a presentation of myxoma: a case report

BMC Infectious Diseases, 2017
Background Corynebacterium striatum is a member of the non-diphtherial corynebacteria, which are ubiquitous in nature and generally colonize the skin and mucous membranes of humans. Rarely, it causes infective endocarditis (IE).

Dual‐Functional Ingestible Passive Capsules for High‐Throughput Intestinal Sampling with Sealed Containment and Targeted Drug Delivery

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
To address challenges in high‐throughput intestinal sampling with sealed containment and target drug delivery, we developed a dual‐functional ingestible passive capsule with a dual‐triggered control system based on pH‐response and mechanical actuation.

Anti-nuclear antibodies positive serum from systemic lupus erythematosus patients promotes cardiovascular manifestations and the presence of human antibody in the brain

Journal of Pharmacy and Bioallied Sciences, 2014
Background: Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is characterized by the presence of anti-nuclear antibodies (ANAs) in the serum of patients. These antibodies may cross over into the brain resulting in the development of neuropsychiatric symptoms and ...

Multiomics Analyses Reveal an Essential Role of Tryptophan in Treatment of csDMARDs in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease characterized by joint inflammation. Approximately 50% of patients show insufficient response to traditional synthetic disease‐modifying antirheumatic drugs. This study aims to elucidate differential molecular profiles of the mechanisms underlying drug responses through multi‐omics strategy.

Deoxynivalenol Exposure Leads to Abnormal Renal Tubular Autophagy Flow

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
DON exposure disrupts the initiation of renal autophagy by inhibiting the formation of autophagosomes, thereby impairing mitochondrial degradation. Damaged mitochondria increase oxidative stress, reduce ferroptosis resistance, and cause lysosomal Fe2⁺ accumulation, further disrupting autophagy.

Elevated Apolipoprotein E Expression in Hippocampal Microglia Drives Temporal Lobe Epilepsy Progression

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In temporal lobe epilepsy, hippocampal APOE is markedly upregulated predominantly in microglia. APOE overexpression in microglia drives TLR4 and cGAS/STING‐dependent neuroinflammation, engages bidirectional crosstalk with neurons and astrocytes, increases neuronal excitability, and perturbs hippocampal lipid metabolism. These findings suggest that APOE‐

Faecalibaculum rodentium Alleviates Ionizing Radiation‐Induced Damage in Mice by Improving Intestinal Integrity and Hematopoiesis via Its Metabolite Butyrate

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The model shows the probiotics screening and underlying mechanisms of F. rodentiumn in alleviating IR‐induced tissue injury. Stress‐induced STAT3 mitochondria localization decreases F. rodentium abundance and butyrate concentration. Supplementation of F.
