Experimental Reconstruction of the Optic Nerve with a Sural Nerve Graft: An in Vivo Experimental Study.

Background: Neurosurgical interventions and trauma are common causes of damage to the optic nerve. This determines the relevance of research for solutions aimed at restoration of the nerve's anatomical integrity, electrical conductivity, and subsequently - restoration of its function. Restore a damaged (cut) optic nerve using n.

Applied physiology: gut microbiota and antimicrobial therapy.

The gut microbiota plays an important role in maintaining human health and in the pathogenesis of several diseases. Antibiotics are among the most commonly prescribed drugs and have a significant impact on the structure and function of the gut microbiota. The understanding that a healthy gut microbiota prevents the development of many diseases has also led to its consideration as a potential therapeutic target.

Novel Perspectives of TSLP and RXR Signaling in Corticosteroid-Resistant Asthma: Updates on TSLP Blockers.

Previous studies described that asthma patients who received corticosteroid therapy have been constrained by the corticosteroid resistance subsequently fostered to severe refractory asthma. In this review, we discussed the implications of TSLP, RXR, the role of STAT5-activating cytokines, and IL-33/NH-cell signaling pathways, and recent clinical evidence on TSLP blockers in steroid-resistant asthma. We have searched several public databases such as Pubmed, Scopus, and Relemed and obtained information pertinent to the TSLP, RXR, TSLP blockers, the STAT5-activating cytokines, and IL-33.

Updated Intrinsic Role of Phytochemicals against Glyphosate-induced Neurotoxicity: Systematic Review.

Background: Glyphosate-based herbicide (GBH) formulations are organophosphorus pesticides implicated for agricultural use. Several epidemiological reports have reported that the occupational exposure of farmers to glyphosate can cause age-related neurodegeneration.

Objective: the objective of this study is to examine the neurotoxic effects of glyphosate and its intricate role in triggering several neurodegenerative diseases like dementia, nootropic defects, Parkinson's disease, and neurological teratogenic effects due to its negative effects on the nervous system.

Breast Cancer-related Lymphedema: Recent Updates on Clinical Efficacy of Therapies and Bioengineering Approaches for a Personalized Therapy.

Background: Post-mastectomy lymphedema is a chronic progressive disease characterized by a significant reduction in quality of life and a range of complications.

Aim: To this date, no single treatment method provides pathological correction of the mechanisms associated with tissue reorganization observed in later-stage breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL).

Methods: To define a personalized approach to the management of patients with iatrogenic lymphedema, we performed a systematic review of literature without a comprehensive meta-analysis to outline existing molecular- genetic patterns, overview current treatment methods and their efficacy, and highlight the specific tissue-associated changes in BCRL conditions and other bio-engineering approaches to develop personalized therapy.
