Article Synopsis
- Scientists looked at how special cells in the body, called satellite glial cells, affect a painful stomach condition known as irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and if a treatment called electroacupuncture (EA) can help.
- They experimented on rats by using a method to make their stomachs hurt and then saw how different treatments (like EA) affected their pain and body responses.
- The results showed that EA helped the rats feel less pain and also changed how certain cells work in the stomach, suggesting that this treatment could be useful for people with IBS.
Background: Aesthetic surgical reconstruction of auricular keloids is still a conundrum. This study introduces our experiences in analyzing the anatomic morphological features of auricular keloids, and devising optimized surgical procedures accordingly.
Methods: A total of 129 ears with auricular keloids were classified and operated.
This study was aimed to investigate whether 4e-binding protein 1 is activated during temporal lobe epileptogenesis. We used the hippocampus of patients with refractory temporal lobe epilepsy (TLE), diagnosed with hippocampal sclerosis (HS) or non-HS, to examine the distribution of phospho-4e-binding protein 1 (p4EBP1) by immunohistochemical staining (n=3-5). We also examined p4EBP1 in the kainic acid (KA)-induced mouse model of TLE before and after anticonvulsant treatment (n=3 per group).
