A 4D geometric morphometrics workflow to quantify complex biological motion

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, EarlyView.
Abstract Quantifying biological motion is fundamentally tied to quantifying the biological structures that produce that motion. Yet, this dependence makes it essential to decouple motion from static morphology to enable general, comparable analyses across individuals and conditions. In this work, we present a methodological pipeline to study biological

Adoptive transfer of allergen-expressing B cells prevents IgE-mediated allergy

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023
IntroductionProphylactic strategies to prevent the development of allergies by establishing tolerance remain an unmet medical need. We previously reported that the transfer of autologous hematopoietic stem cells (HSC) expressing the major timothy grass ...

The Evolution in Understanding the Physiological Causes of Dyspnoea in Large Hiatal Herniation: A Narrative Review

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background The symptomatology of large hiatus hernia (LHH) has been historically poorly understood, with cardiorespiratory symptoms caused by LHH being underappreciated by clinicians. This study reports on the mechanisms of dyspnoea in LHH through a historical review of symptoms and evolved physiological literature, discussing likely causation.

Therapeutic targeting of bleomycin‐induced pulmonary fibrosis by human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicles and/or pirfenidone: Impact of sex in mature adult mice

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive lung disease with limited therapeutic options. This study compared the therapeutic effects of bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (BM‐MSC‐EVs) with an IPF treatment, pirfenidone (PFD), in mature adult mice with established pulmonary ...
