Xenogenic Implantation of Equine Synovial Fluid-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells Leads to Articular Cartilage Regeneration by Mohammed Zayed, Steven Newby, Nabil Misk, Robert Donnell, Madhu Dhar

“…The macroscopic and histological evaluations showed better healing of the articular cartilage in the MSCs’ treated knee than in the control. Interestingly, SFMSC-treated knees showed a significantly higher Col II expression, suggesting the presence of hyaline cartilage in the healed defect. …”

Renal Evaluation in Common Variable Immunodeficiency by Giovany Gomes Capistrano, Gdayllon Cavalcante Meneses, Fernanda Macedo de Oliveira Neves, Renata de Almeida Leitão, Alice Maria Costa Martins, Alexandre Braga Libório

“…In relation to glomerular markers, all CVID patients had normal GFR (>90 mL/min/1.73 m2), and microalbuminuria and urinary MCP-1 levels were also similar to those of controls. Interestingly, CVID patients had reduced urinary concentration capacity, as demonstrated by lower U/POsm ratio, when compared to controls. …”

High Association between Human Circulating MicroRNA-497 and Acute Myocardial Infarction by Zhenci Li, Jing Lu, Yi Luo, Shaonan Li, Minsheng Chen

“…Results showed circulating miR-497 levels were upregulated in AMI patients at 4 h, 8 h, 12 h, and 24 h, by contrast to those in control. Interestingly, time courses of circulating miR-497 levels displayed similar trends to that of cTnI concentrations in AMI patients; further study revealed the high correlation between circulating miR-497 and cTnI concentrations (r=0.573, P<0.001). …”

The Potential Role of Gymnema inodorum Leaf Extract Treatment in Hematological Parameters in Mice Infected with Plasmodium berghei by Sakaewan Ounjaijean, Suriyan Sukati, Voravuth Somsak, Orawan Sarakul

“…Furthermore, the WBC, neutrophil, monocyte, basophil, and eosinophil of untreated mice increased significantly, while the lymphocyte was significantly decreased compared with the healthy control. Interestingly, GIE normalized the hematological alteration induced by PbANKA infection in GIE-treated groups compared with healthy and untreated groups. …”

Whole transcriptome analysis of unmutated sporadic ALS patients' peripheral blood reveals phenotype-specific gene expression signature by Francesca Dragoni, Maria Garofalo, Rosalinda Di Gerlando, Bartolo Rizzo, Matteo Bordoni, Eveljn Scarian, Camilla Viola, Veronica Bettoni, Giuseppe Fiamingo, Danilo Tornabene, Lucia Scanu, Orietta Pansarasa, Luca Diamanti, Stella Gagliardi

“…Our analysis allowed the visualization of gene expression differential clusters between patients and controls. Interestingly, only one gene (Y3_RNA, a misc_RNA component of the Ro60 ribonucleoprotein involved in cellular response to interferon-alpha) was upregulated at different levels across all phenotypes, whereas other genes appeared phenotype-specific. …”

Silver Nanoparticles Conjugate Attenuates Highly Active Antiretroviral Therapy-Induced Hippocampal Nissl Substance and Cognitive Deficits in Diabetic Rats by Sodiq Kolawole Lawal, Samuel Oluwaseun Olojede, Ayobami Dare, Oluwaseun Samuel Faborode, Edwin Coleridge S. Naidu, Carmen Olivia Rennie, Onyemaechi Okpara Azu

“…However, administration of HAART-AgNPs to diabetic rats significantly reduced blood glucose level, improved spatial learning, biochemical indices, and enhanced memory compared to diabetic control. Interestingly, diabetic HAART-AgNP-treated rats showed a significantly improved memory, increased GSH, SOD, and number of positive Nissl-stained neurons compared to diabetic-treated HAART only. …”

Visfatin Induces Inflammation and Insulin Resistance via the NF-κB and STAT3 Signaling Pathways in Hepatocytes by Yu Jung Heo, Sung-E Choi, Ja Young Jeon, Seung Jin Han, Dae Jung Kim, Yup Kang, Kwan Woo Lee, Hae Jin Kim

“…., phospho-IR, phospho-IRS-1 (Tyr612), phospho-AKT, and phospho-GSK-3α/β) involved in insulin signaling, and increased IRS-1 S307 phosphorylation compared to controls. Interestingly, visfatin increased the activities of the JAK2/STAT3 and IKK/NF-κB signaling pathways but not those of the JNK, p38, and ERK pathways. …”
