Background: Accumulating evidence suggests that the presynaptic protein α-synuclein (α-syn), is involved in the pathophysiology of AD and elevated in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). The role of Natural Killer (NK) cells of the innate immune system in AD has largely been overlooked. In a murine model, depletion of NK cells augmented the accumulation of pathological α-syn.

Purpose Of The Study: The preclinical study aimed to compare the healing of segmental bone defects treated with biodegradable hyaluronic acid and tricalcium phosphate-based hydrogel with the established autologous spongioplasty. Another aim was to evaluate the hydrogel as a scaffold for osteoinductive growth factor of bone morphogenetic protein-2 (BMP-2) and stem cells.
Material And Methods: The study was conducted in an in vivo animal model.

Background: Recently, autologous cultured fibroblast and platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapies have been attempted for skin rejuvenation. Unlike PRP, grafted fibroblasts not only produce connective tissue but also influence the surrounding environment through a paracrine effect. Fibroblast-derived cytokines interact with and are modulated by neighboring tissue-constituting cells.

Objective: To compare pregnancy outcomes after single blastocyst embryo transfer among patients whose first autologous embryo transfer was either a fresh embryo transfer or a frozen embryo transfer (FET) after a freeze-all, in the absence of preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidy (PGT-A).
Design: A multicenter retrospective cohort analysis.
Setting: National multicenter fertility practice.

Large bone defects are still a persistent challenge in orthopedics. The availability limitations and associated complications of autologous and allogeneic bone have prompted an increasing reliance on tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. In this study, we developed an injectable scaffold combining an acellular extracellular periosteal matrix hydrogel with poly(d,l-lactate--glycol-acetate) microspheres loaded with the E7 peptide and miR217 (miR217/E7@MP-GEL).
