Degenerative and regenerative peripheral processes are associated with persistent painful chemotherapy-induced neuropathies in males and females.

This study aimed to investigate the time course of gene expression changes during the progression of persistent painful neuropathy caused by paclitaxel (PTX) in male and female mouse hind paws and dorsal root ganglia (DRG). Bulk RNA-seq was used to investigate the gene expression changes in the paw and DRG collected at 1, 16, and 31 days post-PTX. At these time points, differentially expressed DEGs were predominantly related to reduction or increase in epithelial, skin, bone, and muscle development and to angiogenesis, myelination, axonogenesis, and neurogenesis.

Porphyromonas gingivalis GroEL exacerbates orthotopic allograft transplantation vasculopathy via impairment of endothelial cell function.

Orthotopic allograft transplantation (OAT) is a significant approach to addressing organ failure. However, persistent immune responses to the allograft affect chronic rejection, which induces OAT vasculopathy (OATV) and organ failure. Porphyromonas gingivalis can infiltrate remote organs via the bloodstream, thereby intensifying the severity of cardiovascular, respiratory, and neurodegenerative diseases and cancer.

Bat coronavirus was detected positive from insectivorous bats in Krau Wildlife Reserve Forest.

Bats are flying mammals with unique immune systems that allow them to hold many pathogens. Hence, they are recognised as the reservoir of many zoonotic pathogens. In this study, we performed molecular detection to detect coronaviruses, paramyxoviruses, pteropine orthoreoviruses and dengue viruses from samples collected from insectivorous bats in Krau Reserve Forest.

How does patient-centered communication work? Trend analysis of mediation through cancer worry and health self-efficacy, 2011-2020.

This study proposed and tested the cross-sectional effects of patient-centered communication (PCC) on cancer screening behaviors via an affective-cognitive sequential chain of mediation through cancer worry and health self-efficacy. Cross-sectional data were analyzed from four iterations of the Health Information National Trends Survey (2011, 2014, 2017, and 2020). The results found that lowered cancer worry following PCC does not show a cross-sectional positive effect in promoting cancer screening behaviors, while enhanced health self-efficacy as a subsequent state is a facilitator of screening behaviors.

Composite Microparticles of Fat Graft and GFR Matrigel Improved Volume Retention by Promoting Cell Migration and Vessel Regeneration.

Background: The retention volume of autologous fat grafts decreases after transplantation due to limited nutrition infiltration and insufficient blood supply. Structural fat grafts and the 3M (multipoint, multitunnel, and multilayer) injection technique have been considered to improve the survival of grafts; however, it is difficult for surgeons to practice in the clinic because grafts tend to gather into a cluster, especially in large volume fat grafting. Therefore, we hypothesize that prefabricated microparticle fat grafts (PFMG) may improve the retention rate.

Expression activation of over 70% of genes during the first hour of infection.

The obligate intracellular bacterium has a unique developmental cycle that alternates between two contrasting cell types. With a hardy envelope and highly condensed genome, the small elementary body (EB) maintains limited metabolic activities yet survives in extracellular environments and is infectious. After entering host cells, EBs differentiate into larger and proliferating reticulate bodies (RBs).
