Protective Effect of Melatonin on Acute Pancreatitis by Jolanta Jaworek, Joanna Szklarczyk, Andrzej K. Jaworek, Katarzyna Nawrot-Porąbka, Anna Leja-Szpak, Joanna Bonior, Michalina Kot

“…The beneficial effect of melatonin on acute pancreatitis, which has been reported in many experimental studies and supported by clinical observations, is related to: (1) enhancement of antioxidant defense of the pancreatic tissue, through direct scavenging of toxic radical oxygen (ROS) and nitrogen (RNS) species, (2) preservation of the activity of antioxidant enzymes; such as superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), or glutathione peroxidase (GPx), (3) the decline of pro-inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis α (TNFα) production, accompanied by stimulation of an anti-inflammatory IL-10, (4) improvement of pancreatic blood flow and decrease of neutrophil infiltration, (5) reduction of apoptosis and necrosis in the inflamed pancreatic tissue, (6) increased production of chaperon protein (HSP60), and (7) promotion of regenerative process in the pancreas. …”

Histological assessment of a novel restorative coronary artery bypass graft in a chronic ovine model by Yu Sato, Matthew Kutnya, Biniyam Abebe, Mohammed S. El Kurdi, Martijn Cox, Richard W. Bianco, Bart Meuris, Yoshinobu Onuma, Patrick W. Serruys, Renu Virmani

“…The cross-sectional area of the SVG lumen was significantly larger than XABGs (48.2 mm2 vs 12.9 mm2, p = 0.0018), consistent with a reduced angiographic flow velocity in SVG. The neointimal area was greater in SVGs than XABGs (19.6 vs. 6.7 mm2, p = 0.0005), especially at the distal ends of SVGs due to thrombus formation.ConclusionXABG demonstrated 1-year feasibility with consistent endothelialization and polymer absorption. …”
