The term "children's interstitial lung disease" (chILD) refers to a heterogeneous group of rare and diffuse lung diseases associated with significant morbidity and mortality. These disorders include neuroendocrine cell hyperplasia of infancy, pulmonary interstitial glycogenosis, surfactant dysfunction mutations, and alveolar capillary dysplasia with misalignment of pulmonary veins. Diagnosis can be challenging, which may lead to a delay in recognition and treatment of these disorders. Recently, International Classifications of Diseases, Ninth Revision codes have been added for several of the chILD disorders. The purpose of this article is to give an overview of the chILD disorders and appropriate diagnostic coding.

17β-estradiol promotes osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs by regulating mitophagy through ARC.

J Orthop Surg Res

January 2025

Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery - Head & Neck Oncology, Shanghai Ninth People's Hospital, College of Stomatology, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, 639 Zhizaoju Road, Shanghai, 200011, China.

The study aims to elucidate the mechanism through which 17β-estradiol facilitates osteogenic differentiation in bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). In our study, lentiviral transfection was employed to establish apoptosis repressor with caspase recruitment domain (ARC) knockdown or overexpression in BMSCs. The impact of 17β-estradiol on ARC expression was assessed using western blot, RT-PCR and immunofluorescence.

Alzheimer's disease (AD), the most prevalent form of dementia in the elderly, involves critical changes such as reduced aerobic glycolysis in astrocytes and increased neuronal apoptosis, both of which are significant in the disease's pathology. In our study, astrocytes treated with amyloid β1-42 (Aβ) to simulate AD conditions exhibited upregulated expressions of small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO)-specific protease 1 (SENP1) and Pumilio RNA Binding Family Member 2 (PUM2), alongside decreased levels of Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2). SENP1 is notably the most upregulated SUMOylation enzyme in Aβ-exposed astrocytes.
