Oral mucosa of beige (Chediak-Higashi) mice had decreased levels of collagen synthesis and prolyl hydroxylase activity compared with normal animals. No significant difference was observed in non-collagen protein synthesis between the two groups. These results suggest that decreased collagen biosynthesis in oral tissues may be partially involved in the increased incidence of periodontal disease in the Chediak-Higashi syndrome.

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a systemic, chronic inflammatory disease characterized by altered levels of inflammatory cytokines. One of the key cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of RA is tumor necrosis factor α (TNF-α), which plays a crucial role in the differentiation of T cells and B cells and serves as a primary trigger of inflammation and joint damage in RA. Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUC-MSCs) have shown potential in alleviating the symptoms of RA.

Skeletal muscle function gradually declines with aging, presenting substantial health and societal challenges. Comparative analysis of how aging affects fast- and slow-twitch muscles remains lacking. We utilized 20-month-old mice to reveal the aging effects on muscle structure and fiber composition, followed by bulk RNA sequencing for fast- and slow-twitch muscles and integration with human single-cell RNA sequencing dataset providing a comparative analysis across species.

Objective: To study the associations of genetic markers influencing the residual reactivity of platelets during antiplatelet therapy with acetylsalicylic acid, and clinical and laboratory parameters, including parameters of the platelet hemostasis, in patients with non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke (IS) for a deeper understanding of the pathogenetic mechanisms and prediction of response to therapy and clinical outcome.
Material And Methods: The study included 296 patients (average age 64.65 [55; 76] years) undergoing treatment at the City Clinical Hospital named after.

Introduction: Collagen is essential for maintaining lung structure and function and its remodeling has been associated with respiratory diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the cellular mechanisms driving collagen remodeling and the functional implications of this process in the pathophysiology of pulmonary diseases remain poorly understood.
Methods: To address this question, we employed ; mice with specific depletion of Lyve-1 macrophages and assessed the content, types and organization of collagen in lung compartments at steady state and after chronic exposure to cigarette smoke (CS).
