Stem Cell Therapy in Patients with Chronic Nonischemic Heart Failure by Gregor Poglajen, Gregor Zemljič, Sabina Frljak, Andraž Cerar, Vesna Andročec, Matjaž Sever, Peter Černelč

“…Bone marrow-derived cells and CD34+ cells have been demonstrated to improve myocardial performance, functional capacity, and neurohumoral activation. Furthermore, allogeneic mesenchymal stem cells were also shown to be effective in improving heart function in this patient population; this may represent an important step towards the development of a standardized stem cell product for widespread clinical use in patients with DCMP. …”

In-depth and high-throughput spatial proteomics for whole-tissue slice profiling by deep learning-facilitated sparse sampling strategy by Ritian Qin, Jiacheng Ma, Fuchu He, Weijie Qin

“…Therefore, spatially resolved gene expression profiling is crucial for determining the function and phenotypes of these cells. While genome mutations and transcriptome alterations act as drivers of diseases, the proteins that they encode regulate essentially all biological functions and constitute the majority of biomarkers and drug targets for disease diagnostics and treatment. …”

A generalized refined Moore–Gibson–Thompson thermoelastic model based on the concept of memory-dependent higher-order derivatives by Ahmed E. Abouelregal, Marin Marin, Abdelaziz Foul, Sameh S. Askar

“…In this paper, a new thermoelasticity model is created that combines the Moore-Gibson-Thompson (MGT) equation with higher-order memory-dependent derivatives (MDD), any optional kernel function, and time delay. The objective of this model is to provide a more accurate mathematical depiction of the thermal and mechanical reactions of materials, particularly those that exhibit complex behaviors over time. …”
