Although Mohs micrographic surgery (MMS) is the gold standard for treatment of nonmelanoma skin cancers (NMSCs), laser management has been an emerging treatment option that continues to be studied. Nonablative laser therapy is a noninvasive alternative. This study used a combined pulsed dye laser (PDL) and fractional laser approach to treat basal cell carcinomas (BCCs) in conjunction with noninvasive imaging such as reflectance confocal microscopy (RCM) and optical coherence tomography (OCT) to enhance efficacy rates.

This study was conducted to assess the effects of fumonisin B (FB) on the jejunum of pigs using a novel ex vivo model conducted in parallel with an in vivo trial. For the in vivo model, twelve male 28 to 70-days-old pigs were subjected to two treatments of six animals each: the control group, fed a basal diet (BD), and the FB group, fed the BD + 50 mg/kg FB. At 70 days, the animals were slaughtered and one jejunal sample was collected from each pig for further histopathological analyses.

Introduction: In the treatment of cancer, immunomodulatory approaches are developed to support the organism in fighting cancer or to enhance the immunomodulatory effects of local ablative techniques. To this end, we conducted an interventional, open-label, single-arm Phase I trial to evaluate the safety and tolerability of intratumoral phIL12 plasmid DNA gene electrotransfer as primary objectives.

Methods: The study was dose-escalating with 3 consecutive cohorts of 3 patients per phIL12 dose level (0.

The in-situ electrochemical production of hydrogen peroxide (HO) offers a promising approach for ballast water treatment. However, further advancements are required to develop electrocatalysts capable of achieving efficient HO generation in seawater environments. Herein, we synthesized two-dimensional lamellated porous carbon nanosheets enriched with oxygen functional groups, which exhibited exceptional performance in HO electrosynthesis.

Purpose: Oral lichen planus (OLP) is a chronic inflammatory disease, in which T-Lymphocytes induce apoptosis of basal keratinocytes, leading to the formation of symptomatic lesions. It is assumed that blocking the cell death program and enhancing cell proliferation would be crucial to the healing process. The aim of the study was to verify the efficacy of Photobiomodulation (PBM) in OLP management, by evaluating the effects of laser irradiation on the processes of apoptosis and cell proliferation.

Mitochondria are semi-autonomous organelle present in eukaryotic cells, containing their own genome and transcriptional machinery. However, their functions are intricately linked to proteins encoded by the nuclear genome. Mitochondrial transcription termination factors (mTERFs) are nucleic acid-binding proteins involved in RNA splicing and transcription termination within plant mitochondria and chloroplasts.
