Flow Cytometry Analyses of Meningioma Immune Cell Composition Using a Short, Optimized Digestion Protocol.

Background: Current challenges in meningioma treatment, including post-surgical complications and cognitive impairments, highlight the need for new treatment alternatives. Immunological interventions have shown promise. However, there is a knowledge gap in characterizing infiltrating immune cells in meningioma and their interplay.

Haemodynamic significance of extrinsic outflow graft stenoses during HeartMate 3™ therapy.

Aims: The HeartMate 3 (HM3) implantable left ventricular assist device connects the left ventricle apex to the aorta via an outflow graft. Extrinsic obstruction of the graft (eOGO) is associated with serious morbidity and mortality and recently led to a Food and Drug Administration Class 1 device recall of HM3. This study aimed to provide a better understanding of the haemodynamic impact of extrinsic stenoses.

Exploring the Surface: Sampling of Potential Skin Cancer Biomarkers Kynurenine and Tryptophan, Studied on 3D Melanocyte and Melanoma Models.

Early detection of cancer via biomarkers is vital for improving patient survival rates. In the case of skin cancers, low-molecular-weight biomarkers can penetrate the skin barrier, enabling non-invasive sampling at an early stage. This study focuses on detecting tryptophan (Trp) and kynurenine (Kyn) on the surface of reconstructed 3D melanoma and melanocyte models.

Corrigendum to "Investigation of tryptophan to kynurenine degradation in response to interferon-γ in melanoma cell lines" [Biochem. Biophys. Rep. 37 (2024), 101612].
