Background: Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is a devastating disease characterized by progressive muscle wasting that leads to diminished lifespan. In addition to the inherent weakness of dystrophin-deficient muscle, the dysfunction of resident muscle stem cells (MuSC) significantly contributes to disease progression.
Methods: Using the mdx mouse model of DMD, we performed an in-depth characterization of disease progression and MuSC function in dystrophin-deficient skeletal muscle using immunohistology, isometric force measurements, transcriptomic analysis and transplantation assays.

Versiti Blood Research Institute, Milwaukee, WI (A.R., C.S., S.R.).
Background: Hypertension or elevated blood pressure (BP) is a worldwide clinical challenge and the leading primary risk factor for kidney dysfunctions, heart failure, and cerebrovascular disease. The kidney is a central regulator of BP by maintaining sodium-water balance. Multiple genome-wide association studies revealed that BP is a heritable quantitative trait, modulated by several genetic, epigenetic, and environmental factors.

This study intended to evaluate the clinical efficacy and safety of colistin sulfate aerosol inhalation in combination with ceftazidime-avibactam for the treatment of pulmonary carbapenem-resistant (CRKP) infection during the peri-operative period of liver transplantation. A retrospective analysis was designed to investigate 52 patients who developed pulmonary CRKP infection after liver transplantation between December 1, 2019, and November 30, 2022. On the basis of whether they received colistin sulfate aerosol inhalation, the patients were divided into the treatment group ( = 29) and the control group ( = 23).

Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its poor prognosis. Traditional Japanese herbal medicine (Kampo), such as Juzentaihoto (a standardized combination of 10 herbal extracts), has shown immune modulatory effects, modulation of microcirculation, and amelioration of fatigue. It is administered to patients to prevent deterioration of cachexia and counteract side effects of chemotherapy.
