Objectives: Islet transplantation is one of the most promising curative methods for type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), but early hypoxic death of the graft post-transplantation impedes successful treatment. To improve the efficacy of islet transplantation and enhance islet cell resistance to hypoxia, reducing hypoxic injury before revascularization is crucial. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are known to regulate immune responses and protect against hypoxic damage through paracrine mechanisms.

Herein, we characterized the percentage of tacrolimus to the combined sirolimus and tacrolimus trough levels (tacrolimus %) observed during islet transplant-associated immune suppression therapy with post-transplant skin cancer. Although trough levels of tacrolimus and sirolimus were not different ( = 0.79, 0.

Targeted delivery has emerged as a critical strategy in the development of novel therapeutics. The advancement of nanomedicine hinges on the safe and precise cell-specific delivery of protein-based therapeutics to the immune system. However, major challenges remain, such as developing an efficient delivery system, ensuring specificity, minimizing off-target effects, and attaining effective intracellular localization.

Langerhans cell histiocytosis (LCH) is a heterogeneous histiocytosis with various pulmonary manifestations and imaging. We aim to evaluate the pulmonary response of LCH by high resolution chest computed tomography (HRCT) through continuous follow-up.We conducted a retrospective analysis of 73 adult LCH patients with pulmonary involvement.

Endothelial dysfunction is a strong prognostic factor in predicting the development of cardiovascular diseases. Dysfunctional endothelium loses its homeostatic ability to regulate vascular tone and prevent overactivation of inflammation, leading to vascular dysfunction. These functions are critical for vascular homeostasis and arterial pressure control, the disruption of which may lead to hypertension.
