miRNA-541-5p regulates myocardial ischemia–reperfusion injury by targeting ferroptosis by ZhiYu Zhao, BoXia Li, DianWei Cheng, YuFang Leng

“…Subsequently, by constructing H9C2 cell lines with miRNA-541-5p overexpression and miRNA-541-5p expression inhibition, miRNA-541-5p expression was inversely correlated with the survival of H9C2 cells after hypoxia-reoxygenation injury. miRNA-541-5p up-regulation led to a decrease in SOD and GSH, an increase in ferritin and MDA, and an accumulation of ROS. wb and qRT-PCT demonstrated that high miRNA-541-5p expression up-regulated the expression of protein/mRNA expression of ACSL-4, HO-1, ferritin, and TFR-1, but down-regulated protein/mRNA expression of GPX-4. …”

Percutaneous Holmium Laser Fulguration of Calyceal Diverticula by Amjad Alwaal, Raed A. Azhar, Sero Andonian

“…Calyceal diverticular stones are uncommon findings that represent a challenge in their treatment, due to the technical difficulty in accessing the diverticulum, and the high risk of their recurrence. Current percutaneous technique for calyceal diverticular stones involves establishing a renal access, clearing the stone, and fulguration of the diverticular lining with a roller-ball cautery electrode using hypotonic irrigation solution such as sterile water or glycine solution which may be associated with the absorption of hypotonic fluids with its inherent electrolyte disturbances. …”
