Effect of platelet-rich plasma on healing of lower extremity diabetic skin ulcers: A meta-analysis.

The aim of this research is to explore the therapeutic efficacy of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) on the cutaneous ulceration of diabetes mellitus (DM). From the beginning of the database until January 2024, we looked through several databases to obtain randomised, controlled PRP studies to treat the wound healing of DM in adult patients. The Cochrane Collaboration's Risk-Of-Bias Instrument was used to evaluate the risk of bias in randomised, controlled studies.

LINC00969 inhibits proliferation with metastasis of breast cancer by regulating phosphorylation of PI3K/AKT and ILP2 expression through HOXD8.

Background: Breast cancer (BC) is a malignancy that is inadequately treated and poses a significant global health threat to females. The aberrant expression of long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) acts as a complex with a precise regulatory role in BC progression. LINC00969 has been linked to pyroptotic cell death and resistance to gefitinib in lung cancer cells.

A Case Report of Primary Malignant Melanoma of the Gallbladder with Multiple Metastases.

Primary malignant melanoma of the gallbladder is an extremely rare tumor with approximately 39 cases described in the literature so far. However, since the first case was reported in 1907, it remains controversial whether gallbladder involvement in malignant melanoma is primary or metastatic. Here, we report a case of primary malignant melanoma of the gallbladder.

The value of platelet-rich plasma-derived extracellular vesicles in modern medicine.

Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) has been widely used in clinical practice. The mechanism by which PRP promotes tissue repair lies in the release of multiple growth factors upon platelet activation, which accelerates the proliferation and differentiation of repair cells and the synthesis of extracellular matrix. In recent years, as extracellular vesicles (EVs) research has increased and intensified, it has been found that EVs also play an important role in tissue repair.

Identification of the multiple roles of enolase as an plasminogen receptor and adhesin in Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae.

Mycoplasma hyopneumoniae is the etiological agent underlying porcine enzootic pneumonia, a chronic respiratory disease worldwide. The recruitment of plasminogen to the surface and subsequently promotion of plasmin conversion by the surface-located receptor, have been reported to assist the adhesion and invasion of Mycoplasmas. The surface localization and plasminogen-binding ability of M.

Clinicopathologic parameters and outcomes of mucinous neoplasms confined to the appendix: a benign entity with excellent prognosis.

Appendiceal mucinous neoplasms (AMNs), characterized by expansile or "pushing" growth of neoplastic epithelium through the appendix wall, are sometimes accompanied by peritoneal involvement, the extent and grade of which largely determine clinical presentation and long-term outcomes. However, the prognosis of tumors entirely confined to the appendix is still debated and confusion remains regarding their biologic behavior and, consequently, their clinical management and even diagnostic nomenclature. We evaluated AMNs limited to the appendix from 337 patients (median age: 58 years, interquartile range (IQR): 47-67), 194 (57.

Rapid and sensitive detection of African swine fever virus in pork using recombinase aided amplification combined with QDMs-based test strip.

African swine fever virus (ASFV) is the pathogen of African swine fever, a highly contagious and fatal disease of wild boar and domestic pigs. The flow of ASFV through pork products is more concealed, higher risky, and more difficult to prevent and control. Presently, on-site ASFV detection methods in preclinical infected pigs and circulated pork products are lacking.

Recurrent loss of chromosome 22 and SMARCB1 deletion in extra-axial chordoma: A clinicopathological and molecular analysis.

Extra-axial chordoma is a rare neoplasm of extra-axial skeleton and soft tissue that shares identical histomorphologic and immunophenotypic features with midline chordoma. While genetic changes in conventional chordoma have been well-studied, the genomic alterations of extra-axial chordoma have not been reported. It is well known that conventional chordoma is a tumor with predominantly non-random copy number alterations and low mutational burden.

Intratumoral Budding and Tumor Microenvironment in Pretreatment Rectal Cancer Biopsies Predict the Response to Neoadjuvant Chemoradiotherapy.

Tumor budding at the invasive tumor front (peritumoral budding) is an established prognostic factor in colorectal cancer. However, the significance of intratumoral budding (ITB) in pretreatment biopsies is still uncertain. Our study aims to investigate the association of ITB and tumor microenvironment in pretreatment rectal cancer biopsies with pathologic response to neoadjuvant chemoradiotherapy.

Overexpression of HOXD8 inhibits the proliferation, migration and invasion of breast cancer cells by downregulating ILP2 expression.

Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women. Although a number of homeobox (HOX) genes are known to serve an important role in breast cancer, the role of HOXD8 in breast cancer remains unclear. The aim of the present study was to investigate the role of HOXD8 in the physiological behaviors of breast cancer cells.

Fifteen-Year Follow-Up of a Patient with Acinar Cystic Transformation of the Pancreas and Literature Review.

Acinar cystic transformation (ACT), also known as "acinar cell cystadenoma," is a rare and newly recognized benign pancreatic cystic neoplasm. However, its true malignant potential remains unknown. Here, we report a case of ACT with 15-year follow-up.

Functional interaction between long non-coding RNA and microRNA in rheumatoid arthritis.

MicroRNA (miRNA) has received widespread attention for its role in several key cellular processes such as cell differentiation, cell proliferation, apoptosis, and autoimmune diseases. Although we now have a good understanding of miRNA expression and function, our knowledge regarding the molecular mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is still in its infancy. In this review, we will briefly introduce the definition and function of lncRNA and summarize the interactions between lncRNA and miRNA and their research progress in rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

Extrauterine adenomyomas presenting in a 47 year old woman with a previous cesarean section.

•Extrauterine adenomyoma cannot be solely diagnosed on the basis of radiographic appearance.•There are five theories for the pathophysiology of extrauterine adenomyomas.•Surveillance and treatment range from none to ovarian suppression.

A tyrosine-based motif in the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein tail mediates cell-type- and Rab11-FIP1C-dependent incorporation into virions.

Lentiviruses such as HIV-1 encode envelope glycoproteins (Env) with long cytoplasmic tails (CTs) that include motifs mediating interactions with host-cell-trafficking factors. We demonstrated recently that Rab11-family interacting protein 1C (FIP1C) is required for CT-dependent incorporation of Env into HIV-1 particles. Here, we used viruses bearing targeted substitutions within CT to map the FIP1C-dependent incorporation of Env.

An siRNA screen of membrane trafficking genes highlights pathways common to HIV-1 and M-PMV virus assembly and release.

The assembly and release of retroviruses from the host cells requires a coordinated series of interactions between viral structural proteins and cellular trafficking pathways. Although a number of cellular factors involved in retrovirus assembly have been identified, it is likely that retroviruses utilize additional trafficking factors to expedite their assembly and budding that have not yet been defined. We performed a screen using an siRNA library targeting host membrane trafficking genes in order to identify new host factors that contribute to retrovirus assembly or release.

ROCK1 and LIM kinase modulate retrovirus particle release and cell-cell transmission events.

Unlabelled: The assembly and release of retroviruses from the host cells require dynamic interactions between viral structural proteins and a variety of cellular factors. It has been long speculated that the actin cytoskeleton is involved in retrovirus production, and actin and actin-related proteins are enriched in HIV-1 virions. However, the specific role of actin in retrovirus assembly and release remains unknown.

Direct evidence for intracellular anterograde co-transport of M-PMV Gag and Env on microtubules.

The intracellular transport of Mason-Pfizer monkey virus (M-PMV) assembled capsids from the pericentriolar region to the plasma membrane (PM) requires trafficking of envelope glycoprotein (Env) to the assembly site via the recycling endosome. However, it is unclear if Env-containing vesicles play a direct role in trafficking capsids to the PM. Using live cell microscopy, we demonstrate, for the first time, anterograde co-transport of Gag and Env.

[Rash and fever illness caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 needs to be distinguished from hand, foot and mouth disease].

An epidemic of rash and fever illnesses suspected of hand, foot and mouth disease (HFMD) occurred in Gansu Province of China in 2008, laboratory tests were performed in order to identify the pathogen that caused this epidemic. Eight clinical specimens collected from the 4 patients (each patient has throat swab and herpes fluid specimens) with rash and febrile illness, were inoculated onto RD and HEp-2 cells for virus isolation, and the viral nucleic acid was then extracted with the positive virus isolates, the dual-channel real-time reverse transcript-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was performed to detect the nucleic acid of human enterovirus (HEV) in the viral isolates at the same time. For the viral isolates with the negative results of HEV, a sequence independent single primer amplification technique (SISPA) was used for "unknown pathogen" identification.

The HIV-1 protein Vpr targets the endoribonuclease Dicer for proteasomal degradation to boost macrophage infection.

The HIV-1 protein Vpr enhances macrophage infection, triggers G2 cell cycle arrest, and targets cells for NK-cell killing. Vpr acts through the CRL4(DCAF1) ubiquitin ligase complex to cause G2 arrest and trigger expression of NK ligands. Corresponding ubiquitination targets have not been identified.

Rab11-FIP1C and Rab14 direct plasma membrane sorting and particle incorporation of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein complex.

The incorporation of the envelope glycoprotein complex (Env) onto the developing particle is a crucial step in the HIV-1 lifecycle. The long cytoplasmic tail (CT) of Env is required for the incorporation of Env onto HIV particles in T cells and macrophages. Here we identify the Rab11a-FIP1C/RCP protein as an essential cofactor for HIV-1 Env incorporation onto particles in relevant human cells.

Tetherin/BST-2 is essential for the formation of the intracellular virus-containing compartment in HIV-infected macrophages.

HIV-1 assembly and release occur at the plasma membrane in T lymphocytes, while intracellular sites of virus assembly or accumulation are apparent in macrophages. The host protein tetherin (BST-2) inhibits HIV release from the plasma membrane by retaining viral particles at the cell surface, but the role of tetherin at intracellular HIV assembly sites is unclear. We determined that tetherin is significantly upregulated upon macrophage infection and localizes to an intracellular virus-containing compartment (VCC).

The intracellular virus-containing compartments in primary human macrophages are largely inaccessible to antibodies and small molecules.

HIV-1 assembly and release occurs at the plasma membrane of human T lymphocytes and model epithelial cell lines, whereas in macrophages intracellular sites of virus assembly or accumulation predominate. The origin of the intracellular virus-containing compartment (VCC) has been controversial. This compartment is enriched in markers of the multivesicular body, and has been described as a modified endosomal compartment.
