Applications of a biocompatible alginate/pericardial fluid-based hydrogel for the production of a bioink in tissue engineering.

Enhancing the biocompatibility of biomaterials is a critical aspect of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. Advances in 3D bioprinting technology, blending natural and synthetic materials for the production of bioink, offer new opportunities to develop highly biocompatible materials that can closely mimic the native tissue environment. In this study, we used pericardial fluid structure (PFS)-based material together with alginate to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) and produce a bioink material.

Impact of upper extremity robotic rehabilitation on respiratory parameters, functional capacity and dyspnea in patients with stroke: a randomized controlled study.

Background: Stroke leads to reduced mobility and functional capacity, also negatively affects respiratory functions and muscle strength.

Aim: To examine the effects of adding upper extremity robotic rehabilitation to conventional treatment on respiratory parameters, functional capacity, mobility, and dyspnea.

Method: Thirty-four stroke patients aged 18-65/years were randomized into Conventional Rehabilitation (CR) or Upper Extremity Robotic Rehabilitation (RR) groups.

Acetylation of Histone H3 in Cancer Progression and Prognosis.

Cancer is a multifactorial disease resulting from both genetic factors and epigenetic changes. Histone acetylation, a post-translational modification, which alters chromatin architecture and regulates gene expression is associated with cancer initiation, development and progression. Aberrations in global histone acetylation levels are observed in various cancer cells and are also associated with patients' tumor aggressiveness.

Synthesis and characterization of activated carbon-supported magnetic nanocomposite (MNPs-OLAC) obtained from okra leaves as a nanocarrier for targeted delivery of morin hydrate.

Introduction: The method of encapsulating the drug molecule in a carrier, such as a magnetic nanoparticle, is a promising development that has the potential to deliver the medicine to the site where it is intended to be administered. Morin is a pentahydroxyflavone obtained from the leaves, stems, and fruits of various plantsmainly from the Moraceae family exhibiting diverse pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, and free radical scavenging and helps treat diseases such as diabetes, myocardial infarction and cancer.

Methods: In this study, we conducted the synthesis of a nanocomposite with magnetic properties by coating biocompatible activated carbon obtained from okra plant leaves with magnetic nanoparticles.

Antioxidant properties of Özhatay & cowley plant extract, its effects on the proliferation and migration of cancer cells.

Cancer is a type of non-communicable disease that is responsible for numerous deaths worldwide. Cancer incidence and mortality rates are on the rise due to a combination of factors, such as a growing population, aging, and poor dietary habits. The Özhatay & Cowley plant is an endemic plant in the area where it grows and is consumed by the public due to its various benefits.
