Noninvasive release of tendons using MRI guided focused ultrasound: a hybrid therapy using long-pulse focused ultrasound followed by thermal ablation by William Chu Kwan, Imogen den Otter-Moore, Ari Partanen, Karolina Piorkowska, Unni Narayanan, Adam C. Waspe, James M. Drake

“…The standard deviation for the area of thermal injury was also smaller for the hybrid protocol, suggesting greater predictability.Conclusion This study demonstrated a hybrid MRgFUS protocol combining long-pulse FUS followed by thermal ablation to be noninferior and safer than an ablation-only protocol for extracorporeal in-vivo tendon rupture for future clinical application for noninvasive release of contracted tendon.…”

Radial Evolution of Interplanetary Shock Properties with Heliospheric Distance: Observations from Parker Solar Probe by Oksana Kruparova, Adam Szabo, Lan K. Jian, František Němec, Jana Šafránková, Zdeněk Němeček, Jacob Pasanen, Ayris Narock, Vratislav Krupar

“…These findings provide new insights into the dynamic processes governing shock evolution in the inner heliosphere, including scenarios where the near-radial magnetic field geometry may lead to predominantly quasi-parallel shock configurations and thus affect near-Sun particle acceleration efficiency. We also provide strong evidence for the existence of slow-mode shocks near the Sun, contributing to the understanding of shock formation and evolution in the inner heliosphere.…”

Use of α-Lactalbumin and Caseinoglycomacropeptide as Biopeptide Precursors and as Functional Additives in Milk Beverages Fermented by L. helveticus by Katarzyna Skrzypczak, Emilia Fornal, Dorota Domagała, Waldemar Gustaw, Ewa Jabłońska-Ryś, Aneta Sławińska, Wojciech Radzki, Anna Kononiuk, Adam Waśko

“…The objective of this investigation was to verify whether biologically active peptides (BAPs) could be obtained from water solutions of α-lactalbumin (α-la) and caseinoglycomacropeptide (CGMP) through an application of the new Lactobacillus helveticus strains. Also, the aim of this research was to determine the influence of addition of the analyzed protein preparations to milk subjected to fermentation by tested bacterial strains on the physicochemical properties of obtained milk beverages. …”

DKK1 and Its Receptors in Esophageal Adenocarcinoma: A Promising Molecular Target by Markos Despotidis, Orestis Lyros, Tatiana S. Driva, Panagiotis Sarantis, Emmanouil I. Kapetanakis, Adam Mylonakis, Andreas Mamilos, Stratigoula Sakellariou, Dimitrios Schizas

“…CKAP4 (cytoskeleton-associated protein 4) is a novel receptor of DKK1, and the DKK1-CKAP4 pathway seems to be crucial in the role of DKK1 as an oncogene. The aim of this review is to feature the essential role of DKK1 and its receptors in carcinogenesis with a focus on EAC in an era of urgent need for specific biomarkers along with improved targeted therapies.…”
