Regenerative and Protective Actions of the GHK-Cu Peptide in the Light of the New Gene Data.

The human peptide GHK (glycyl-l-histidyl-l-lysine) has multiple biological actions, all of which, according to our current knowledge, appear to be health positive. It stimulates blood vessel and nerve outgrowth, increases collagen, elastin, and glycosaminoglycan synthesis, as well as supports the function of dermal fibroblasts. GHK’s ability to improve tissue repair has been demonstrated for skin, lung connective tissue, boney tissue, liver, and stomach lining.

[Complications After Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation].

Purpose: to assess rate of complications after transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI).

Material And Results: Our study included 99 patients who underwent TAVI. Frequent complications were: bleeding not requiring surgical hemostasis (17.

The Effect of the Human Peptide GHK on Gene Expression Relevant to Nervous System Function and Cognitive Decline.

Neurodegeneration, the progressive death of neurons, loss of brain function, and cognitive decline is an increasing problem for senior populations. Its causes are poorly understood and therapies are largely ineffective. Neurons, with high energy and oxygen requirements, are especially vulnerable to detrimental factors, including age-related dysregulation of biochemical pathways caused by altered expression of multiple genes.

[DEXMEDETOMIDINE SEDATION DURING TRANSCATHETER AORTIC VALVE IMPLANTATION.].

The Aim: to determine the efficacy and safety of dexmedetomidinefor sedation and analgesia during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TA VI) withfemoral access.

Materials And Methods: the study included 34 high-risk surgical patients with "critical aortic stenosis". All patients underwent TAVI with femoral access.
