Serum proteomic analysis identified ITIH4 as a potential novel biomarker for feline infectious peritonitis.

Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is a fatal feline disease. At present, the reference standard for FIP diagnosis is immunohistochemistry (IHC) of organs, but this method involves high time-related costs, invasive sampling procedures and professional requirements. Serological detection is a common auxiliary method for diagnosing diseases.

Feline infectious peritonitis virus ORF7a is a virulence factor involved in inflammatory pathology in cats.

A hyperinflammatory response is a prominent feature of feline infectious peritonitis (FIP), but the mechanisms behind the feline infectious peritonitis virus (FIPV)-induced cytokine storm in the host have not been clarified. Studies have shown that coronaviruses encode accessory proteins that are involved in viral replication and associated with viral virulence, the inflammatory response and immune regulation. Here, we found that FIPV ORF7a gene plays a key role in viral infection and host proinflammatory responses.

The inhibitory effect of KIAA1456 on the proliferation and metastasis of epithelial ovarian cancer through SSX1 and AKT signaling pathway.

KIAA1456 is effective in the inhibition of tumorigenesis. We previously confirmed that KIAA1456 inhibits cell proliferation and metastasis in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). In the current study, the specific molecular mechanisms and clinical significance of KIAA1456 underlying the repression of EOC were investigated.

Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells promote endometrium regeneration in a rat model of intrauterine adhesion.

Human amniotic transplantation has been proposed to improve the therapeutic efficacy of intrauterine adhesions (IUAs). Human amniotic mesenchymal stem stromal cells (hAMSCs) can differentiate into multiple tissue types. This study aimed to investigate the mechanism by which hAMSCs transplantation promotes endometrial regeneration.

Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells combined with PPCNg facilitate injured endometrial regeneration.

Background: Caused by the injury to the endometrial basal layer, intrauterine adhesions (IUA) are characterized by uterine cavity obliteration, leading to impaired fertility. Human amniotic mesenchymal stem cells (hAMSCs) have the potential to promote endometrial regeneration mainly through paracrine ability. PPCNg is a thermoresponsive biomaterial consisted of Poly (polyethylene glycol citrate-co-N-isopropylacrylamide) (PPCN) mixed with gelatin, which has been reported as a scaffold for stem cell transplantation.

Management of intrauterine adhesions using human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cells to promote endometrial regeneration and repair through Notch signalling.

Intrauterine adhesions (IUAs) severely hamper women's reproductive functions. Human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cell (hAMSC) transplantation is effective in treating IUAs. Here, we examined the function of Notch signalling in IUA treatment with hAMSC transplantation.

The study on the safety and efficacy of amnion graft for preventing the recurrence of moderate to severe intrauterine adhesions.

Transcervical resection of adhesion (TCRA) is the standard treatment for the intrauterine adhesions, but the recurrence of adhesions is a tough problem for the gynecologist. In addition, the therapeutic strategy after TCRA about prevention of recurrence remains controversial especially for the patients with moderate to severe intrauterine adhesions (IUAs). Hence, we designed this study to explore the safety and efficacy of fresh amnion grafts for preventing the recurrence after TCRA for patients with moderate to severe IUAs.
