The RAGE Pathway in Skin Pathology Development: A Comprehensive Review of Its Role and Therapeutic Potential.

The receptor for advanced glycation end-products (RAGE), a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, is expressed in various cell types and mediates cellular responses to a wide range of ligands. The activation of RAGE triggers complex signaling pathways that drive inflammatory, oxidative, and proliferative responses, which are increasingly implicated in the pathogenesis of skin diseases. Despite its well-established roles in conditions such as diabetes, cancer, and chronic inflammation, the contribution of RAGE to skin pathologies remains underexplored.

Advancements in Predictive Tools for Primary Graft Dysfunction in Liver Transplantation: A Comprehensive Review.

Orthotopic liver transplantation stands as the sole curative solution for end-stage liver disease. Nevertheless, the discrepancy between the demand and supply of grafts in transplant medicine greatly limits the success of this treatment. The increasing global shortage of organs necessitates the utilization of extended criteria donors (ECD) for liver transplantation, thereby increasing the risk of primary graft dysfunction (PGD).

Treatment of Complications After Minimally Invasive Breast Augmentation with Aquafilling Gel.

Introduction: Recent studies have revealed that Aquafilling gel used for breast augmentation causes complications. In this study, we investigated which surgical approach should be used to treat these complications.

Materials And Methods: This observational cohort study analysed the data of 31 women suffering from complications after breast enlargement with Aquafilling injection who were treated at our department in 2016-2021.

Role of the Gene Expression in the Clearance of Toxic Vitamin A Derivatives in Human Hair Follicle Stem Cells and Keratinocytes.

The gene encodes an ATP-binding cassette transporter that is expressed specifically in the disc of photoreceptor outer segments. Mutations in the gene are the main cause of retinal degenerations known as "-retinopathies." Recent research has revealed that is expressed in other cells as well, such as hair follicles and keratinocytes, although no information on its significance has been evidenced so far.

Distal Hand Migration of Polyacrylamide Gel after Breast Augmentation: A Case Report and Review of the Literature.

Breast augmentation is one of the most popular cosmetic surgery procedures in the world and it requires a comprehensive study of the methods performed. As less-invasive techniques are sought, tissue fillers have found its purpose in these procedures. However, it has been revealed that some of them may be associated with serious complications.
