Published: August 2008

Transcriptome profiling has shown that the pro-apoptotic death-domain-associated protein Daxx is rapidly induced in the kidney of animals following ischemic injury. Here we found that Daxx protein was increased 5-fold in tubule cells in both animal and human models of ischemic acute kidney injury. Further there was upregulation of its primary interacting partner, Fas and phosphorylation of its primary downstream activator (JNK) in parallel to Daxx induction. In cultured tubule cells, partial ATP depletion resulted in a rapid induction of Daxx, Fas, JNK phosphorylation and apoptosis. Antisense oligonucleotides to Daxx and specific JNK inhibitors blunted the apoptotic response to ATP depletion. These studies indicate that Daxx may play an unrecognized role in the early apoptotic response to ischemic renal injury.

Unlabelled: Greater empirical and scientific attention is still put on patients with left brain hemisphere (LBH) damage where language impairments are common and expected. In patients with RBH damage, language assessment is therefore rarely done in the acute phase of stroke recovery.

Purpose: To investigate language impairments in the acute phase of stroke using a Croatian standardized language battery for the first time and compare patients with RBH stroke, LBH stroke and healthy individuals.

Purpose: Cardiomyocyte death is a major cytopathologic response in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and involves complex inflammatory interactions. Although existing reports indicating that mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is involved in macrophage necroptosis and inflammasome activation, the downstream mechanism of MLKL in necroptosis remain poorly characterized in AMI.

Methods: MLKL knockout mice (MLKL), RIPK3 knockout mice (RIPK3), and macrophage-specific MLKL conditional knockout mice (MLKL) were established.

Gender inequalities in prescribing and initiation patterns of guideline-recommended drugs after acute myocardial infarction.

Background: European guidelines recommend the prescription of certain drugs after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The existence of gender differences in pharmacological treatment after an AMI has been described. This study aims to describe and analyse, using real-world data (RWD), whether there are gender differences in the prescribing patterns and initiation of treatment in secondary prevention after a first AMI, and which are the factors that explain these differences.

To validate the clinical feasibility of deep learning-driven magnetic resonance angiography (DL-driven MRA) collateral map in acute ischemic stroke. We employed a 3D multitask regression and ordinal regression deep neural network, called as 3D-MROD-Net, to generate DL-driven MRA collateral maps. Two raters graded the collateral perfusion scores of both conventional and DL-driven MRA collateral maps and measured the grading time.

Background: Post-stroke epilepsy (PSE) is a major complication of stroke. However, data about the predictors of PSE in patients with acute ischemic stroke (AIS) undergoing mechanical thrombectomy are limited.

Objective: To evaluate the relationship between intraoperative angiographic signs and PSE risk in patients with anterior circulation AIS who underwent mechanical thrombectomy.
