A Clinical Drug as the Three-Photon Fluorescence Probe for In Vivo Microscopic Imaging of Mouse Kidney.

J Biophotonics

January 2025

State Key Laboratory of Extreme Photonics and Instrumentations, Centre for Optical and Electromagnetic Research, College of Optical Science and Engineering, International Research Center for Advanced Photonics, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, China.

Three-photon fluorescence (3PF) microscopy encounters significant challenges in biological research and clinical applications, primarily due to the limited availability of high-performance probes. We took a shortcut by exploring the excellent 3PF property of berberine hydrochloride (BH), a clinically utilized drug derived from the traditional Chinese medicine, Coptis. Capitalizing on its renal metabolism characteristics, we employed BH for in vivo 3PF microscopic imaging of the mouse kidney.

Gonda Vascular Center, Department of Cardiology, Division of Vascular Medicine, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN, USA.

Ankle brachial index (ABI) can be unreliable in patients with non-compressible vessels. Our aim is to determine the feasibility of toe brachial index (TBI) and reporting criteria in a large population. We evaluated Doppler waveforms and segmental pressures in 26,719 limbs.

Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism with inactivating calcium sensing receptor (CaSR) mutation (p.I81K).

J Pediatr Endocrinol Metab

January 2025

Department of Pediatric Endocrinology, Antalya Training and Research Hospital, University of Health Sciences, Antalya, Türkiye.

Objectives: Neonatal severe hyperparathyroidism (NSHPT) is a rare condition characterized by inactivating mutations in the calcium-sensing receptor () gene, leading to significant hypercalcemia and related complications.

Case Presentation: We present a case of a six-day-old male infant with weakness, jaundice, and hypotonia, later diagnosed with NSHPT due to a known homozygous mutation (c.242T>A; p.

A 61-year-old male presented with hematemesis and melena. Biopsy and immunohistochemistry confirmed mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma in the posterior wall of the gastric antrum, prompting further evaluation with F-fluorodeoxyglucose (F-FDG) positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT). In addition to elevated uptake in the gastric antrum, F-FDG PET/CT showed diffuse uptake in multiple bone marrow, initially suspected to indicate bone marrow involvement by lymphoma.

Masticatory muscle changes on magnetic resonance imaging of dogs with compared to meningoencephalitis of unknown origin.

Front Vet Sci

January 2025

Anderson Moores Veterinary Specialists, Linnaeus Veterinary Limited, Winchester, United Kingdom.

Infectious meningoencephalitides represent an important differential diagnosis for meningoencephalitis of unknown origin (MUO) in dogs. Treatment of the latter requires immunosuppression, but laboratory test results for infectious agents may take several days to return. This study investigated whether the presence of masticatory muscle changes on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the head can be used to distinguish dogs with neosporosis from those with MUO at the time of diagnosis.
