miRNA-1 regulation is necessary for mechanical overload-induced muscle hypertrophy in male mice.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, noncoding RNAs that play a critical role in regulating gene expression post-transcriptionally. They are involved in various developmental and physiological processes, and their dysregulation is linked to various diseases. Skeletal muscle-specific miRNAs, including miR-1, play a crucial role in the development and maintenance of skeletal muscle.

Trauma video review through the legal lens: Improving care while minimizing risk.

Video-based platforms have emerged as a transformative force in the field of trauma surgery. Despite its potential, the adoption of trauma video review (TVR) faces challenges. In this review, we describe the use of TVR and examine medicolegal issues pertaining to spoliation, patient privacy, and consent.

The Association between Diet Quality and Health Status in Mobile Food Pantry Users in Northeastern Connecticut.

Low-income Americans tend to have poor diet quality and disease prevalence overall. Mobile food pantries aim to improve these outcomes, and have rarely been studied. This cross-sectional study aimed to evaluate the association between diet quality and health status in mobile food pantry users.

Skeletal Muscle Cell Growth Alters the Lipid Composition of Extracellular Vesicles.

We sought to characterize the lipid profile of skeletal muscle cell-derived Extracellular Vesicles (EVs) to determine if a hypertrophic stimulus would affect the lipid composition of C2C12 myotube-derived EVs. Analyses included C2C12 murine myoblasts differentiated into myotubes and treated with Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) for 24 h to induce hypertrophic growth. EVs were isolated from cell culture media, quantified using Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis (NTA) and analyzed using Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM).
