Prohibitins in infection: potential therapeutic targets.

Future Microbiol

Prohibitins (PHBs) are members of a highly conserved family of proteins, including prohibitin1 and prohibitin2. These proteins are predominantly localized in mitochondria, the nucleus, and cell membranes, where they play critical roles in mitochondrial biogenesis, apoptosis, immune regulation, and other biological processes. Recent studies have demonstrated that both PHB1 and PHB2 can act as a complex or independently to participate in the pathogen infection process.

The choice between total thyroidectomy (TT) and subtotal thyroidectomy (STT) can affect postoperative complications and long-term outcomes in these patients. This study aimed to investigate postoperative complications and long-term outcomes in patients who underwent TT and STT. This retrospective study investigated 1.

Cardiomyocytes can be implanted to remuscularize the failing heart. Challenges include sufficient cardiomyocyte retention for a sustainable therapeutic impact without intolerable side effects, such as arrhythmia and tumour growth. We investigated the hypothesis that epicardial engineered heart muscle (EHM) allografts from induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and stromal cells structurally and functionally remuscularize the chronically failing heart without limiting side effects in rhesus macaques.

Regional Analgesia in Pediatric Cardiothoracic Surgery: A Bayesian Network Meta-Analysis.

J Cardiothorac Vasc Anesth

January 2025

Department of Anesthesiology, Beijing Children's Hospital, Capital Medical University, National Center for Children's Health, China. Electronic address:

Various regional analgesia techniques are used to reduce postoperative pain in pediatric patients undergoing cardiothoracic surgeries. This study aimed to determine the relative efficacy of regional analgesic interventions. PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, and Cochrane databases were searched to identify all randomized controlled studies evaluating the effects of regional block after cardiothoracic surgery.

Our patient presented to the emergency room following a motor vehicle accident. The traumatic tricuspid valve rupture was diagnosed by transthoracic echocardiogram, and his respiratory status declined rapidly. He was placed on veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV ECMO) to bridge him to surgical repair.
