Penetrating eye injuries at the workplace : case reports and discussion [PDF]
, 2010 We describe two recent cases of penetrating eye injury seen at Mater Dei Hospital, both resulting in a poor final outcome and illustrating the importance of wearing appropriate eye protection at the workplace. In case 1, injury was caused by a metal chip

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Investigated mutations in transthyretin (TTR) disrupt the F87‐centered hydrophobic core that stabilizes its tetrameric structure. The mild I107V mutation weakens inter‐chain packing, while H88R fully abolishes tetramer formation, yielding a monomeric, aggregation‐prone form. Structural, biophysical, and computational analyses reveal that both mutations

Degradomics for large‐scale mechanistic insights on proteases and proteolysis in human health
The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.Proteolysis has an important role in human disease but remains relatively unexplored. Degradomics, the uncovering of proteolysis in tissues, cells, and proteins, uses mass spectrometry‐based terminomics to identify protein termini occurring therein (forward degradomics) and to define the actions of proteases (reverse degradomics).

MiR‐155‐5p promotes endothelial–mesenchymal transition and oxidative stress in diabetic retinopathy
Journal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Aims MicroRNA (miRNA) has been confirmed to be related to gene expression regulation and disease progression. However, the role of miR‐155‐5p in diabetic retinopathy remains unclear. Materials and Methods The retinal microvascular endothelial cells (RMECs) were treated with high glucose, and then the changes of miR‐155‐5p, endothelial cell ...

Hyaluronic acid: A novel approach in regenerative/reconstructive periodontal therapy?
Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.Abstract Background Although hyaluronic acid (HA) has long been used for many medical applications, only in recent years has it gained greater popularity in the field of periodontics because of its biological effects during wound healing. Even today, most clinicians are not aware that more than one type of HA exists and that the extent of its ...
