Identification of Prominin-2 as a new player of cardiomyocyte senescence in the aging heart.

The aging heart is characterized by a number of structural changes leading to ventricular stiffness, impaired resistance to stress and increased risk of developing heart failure (HF). Genetic or pharmacological removal of senescent cells has recently demonstrated the possibility to relieve some cardiac aging features such as hypertrophy and fibrosis. However, the contribution of the different cell types in cardiac aging remains fragmentary due to a lack of cell-specific markers.

[Patient-partnership in a comprehensive cancer centre: Establishment and roles of a patients and caregivers committee].

In oncology, the place of patients has a natural and strong legitimacy. Cancer is a common disease, with many singularities but also common features between pathologies, with issues ranging from prevention to possible palliative phases or post-cancer, and conducive to both individual and collective decision-making processes. Patient engagement is now essential at all levels of the healthcare system, from simple information to real involvement (co-construction).

Extended Total Temporomandibular Joint Replacement - A Feasible Option for Functional and Aesthetic Reconstruction of Mandibular Defects Involving the Temporomandibular Joint.

Retrospective case series. Alloplastic temporomandibular joint replacement has been established as a standard technique for end- stage temporomandibular (TMJ) pathologies. Joint replacement when there are extensive mandibular defects remains a challenging clinical problem.

Inhalation of acidic nanoparticles prevents doxorubicin cardiotoxicity through improvement of lysosomal function.

Doxorubicin (Dox) is an effective anticancer molecule, but its clinical efficacy is limited by strong cardiotoxic side effects. Lysosomal dysfunction has recently been proposed as a new mechanism of Dox-induced cardiomyopathy. However, to date, there is a paucity of therapeutic approaches capable of restoring lysosomal acidification and function in the heart.
