It is shown that the effect of neuropeptides depends on the dose and their structure. Considerable immunostimulation is observed after administration of [8-arginine]vasopressin and des-9-glucine-[8-arginine]vasopressin as against the control. This stimulation is prevented by the preliminary heloperidol blockade of dopaminergic receptors, i.e. it is dopamine-dependent. At the same time, injection of tetrapeptide vesopressin-(2-5) induces deep immunosuppression in all the applied doses. The peptide immunosuppression is shown to be a result of interaction with another neuromediator (serotoninergic); it has no effect under preliminary cuproheptadine blockade of C-2 serotonin postsynaptic receptors. The immunomodulating effect of the neuropeptides studied is central one and is realized via the hypothalamus-hypophysis complex.

Characterizing Telehealth Barriers and Preferences to Promote Acceptable Implementation Strategies in Central Uganda: Multilevel Formative Evaluation.
JMIR Form Res
January 2025
Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, College of Human Medicine, Michigan State University, East Lansing, MI, United States.
Background: Telehealth approaches can address health care access barriers and improve care delivery in resource-limited settings around the globe. Yet, telehealth adoption in Africa has been limited, due in part to an insufficient understanding of effective strategies for implementation.
Objective: This study aimed to conduct a multi-level formative evaluation identifying barriers and facilitators for implementing telehealth among health service providers and patients in Central Uganda.
Benefits of Remote-Based Mindfulness on Physical Symptom Outcomes in Cancer Survivors: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis.
JMIR Cancer
January 2025
Kulliyah of Nursing, International Islamic University Malaysia, Selangor, Malaysia.
Background: Many cancer survivors experience a wide range of symptoms closely linked to psychological problems, highlighting the need for psychological treatment, one of the most popular being mindfulness. The use of the internet has greatly increased in the last decade, and has encouraged the use of remote-based interventions to help people living with cancer access treatment remotely via devices.
Objective: The primary aim of this study was to explore the efficacy of internet-based mindfulness interventions on the physical symptoms of people living with cancer, where physical symptoms are defined as distressing somatic experiences (eg fatigue, insomnia, and pain) regardless of the underlying cause.
Silica Nanoparticle-Protein Aggregation and Protein Corona Formation Investigated with Scattering Techniques.
ACS Appl Mater Interfaces

School of Science, STEM College, RMIT University, 124 La Trobe Street, Melbourne, Victoria 3000, Australia.
Protein-nanoparticle interactions and the resulting corona formation play crucial roles in the behavior and functionality of nanoparticles in biological environments. In this study, we present a comprehensive analysis of protein corona formation with superfolder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) and bovine serum albumin in silica nanoparticle dispersions using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) and dynamic light scattering (DLS). For the first time, we subtracted the scattering of individual proteins in solution and individual nanoparticles from the protein-nanoparticle complexes.

Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) possess the capacity to regenerate the entire hematopoietic system. However, the precise HSC dynamics in the early post-transplantation phase remain an enigma. Clinically, the initial hematopoiesis in the post-transplantation period is critical, necessitating strategies to accelerate hematopoietic recovery.
