Published: July 2013

Hypocalcemia in dairy cattle around parturition can be manifest as clinical milk fever or subclinical hypocalcemia. Subclinical hypocalcemia has the greatest economic effect because it affects a much higher proportion of cows. Oral calcium supplements are used to mitigate the effects of both forms of hypocalcemia. Oral calcium supplements are appropriate for cows displaying early clinical signs of hypocalcemia and prophylactically to lessen the negative impacts of hypocalcemia.

Glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonists (GLP1RAs) effectively reduce body weight and improve metabolic outcomes, yet established peptide-based therapies require injections and complex manufacturing. Small-molecule GLP1RAs promise oral bioavailability and scalable manufacturing, but their selective binding to human versus rodent receptors has limited mechanistic studies. The neural circuits through which these emerging therapeutics modulate feeding behavior remain undefined, particularly in comparison to established peptide-based GLP1RAs.

Background: Early neurological deterioration (END) is a critical determinant influencing the short-term prognosis of acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients and is associated with increased mortality rates among hospitalized individuals. AIS frequently coexists with coronary heart disease (CHD), complicating treatment and leading to more severe symptoms and worse outcomes. Shared risk factors between CHD and AIS, especially elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C), contribute to atherosclerosis and inflammation, which worsen brain tissue damage.

Pulpotomy, which belongs to vital pulp therapy, has become a strategy for managing pulpitis in recent decades. This minimally invasive treatment reflects the recognition of preserving healthy dental pulp and optimizing long-term patient-centered outcomes. Pulpotomy is categorized into partial pulpotomy (PP), the removal of a partial segment of the coronal pulp tissue, and full pulpotomy (FP), the removal of whole coronal pulp, which is followed by applying the biomaterials onto the remaining pulp tissue and ultimately restoring the tooth.

Bone defect repair remains a great challenge in the field of orthopedics. Human body essential trace element such as copper is essential for bone regeneration, but how to use it in bone defects and the underlying its mechanisms of promoting bone formation need to be further explored. In this study, by doping copper into mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (Cu-MBGNs), we unveil a previously unidentified role of copper in facilitating osteoblast mitophagy and mitochondrial dynamics, which enhance amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) release and subsequent biomineralization, ultimately accelerating the process of bone regeneration.
