Constitutively activated STAT3 is correlated with more advanced clinical stage and overall poor survival of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). The aim of this study was to evaluate STAT3 and Ki67 tumor cell expression, inflammatory cell infiltration, microvascular density in DLBCL bioptic specimens. RNA-scope showed that activated B cell (ABC) tissue samples contained a significant higher number of STAT3+ cells as compared to germinal center B (GCB) tissue samples. Immunohistochemical analysis showed a significant increased levels of CD3, CD8, CD68, CD163, CD34, and Ki67 positive cells in ABC patients. A positive correlation between STAT3 and CD3, CD8, CD68, and CD163 was evidenced in ABC group. In ABC group, we found also a positive correlation between CD8 and CD34 and a positive correlation between Ki67 and, CD68, and CD163. These data indicate that in ABC-as compared to GCB-DLBCL, a higher STAT3 expression is associated with a higher CD163+ TAM and CD8+ cell infiltration which induces a strong angiogenic response.

Immunomodulation Effects of Porcine Cartilage Acellularized Matrix (pCAM) for Osteoarthritis Treatment.

Tissue Eng Regen Med

January 2025

Division of Biomedical Convergence, College of Biomedical Science, Kangwon National University, Chuncheon-si, 24341, Republic of Korea.

Background: Pain reduction, immunomodulation, and cartilage repair are key therapeutic goals in osteoarthritis (OA) treatment. In this study, we evaluated the therapeutic effects of porcine cartilage acellularized matrix (pCAM) derived from naive tissue and compared it with the synthetic material polynucleotides (PN) for OA treatment.

Methods: pCAM was produced from porcine cartilage through physicochemical processing.

A serious challenge of the chronic administration of dexamethasone (DEX) is a delay in wound healing. Thus, this study aimed to investigate the potential of Tadalafil (TAD)-loaded proniosomal gel to accelerate the healing process of skin wounds in DEX-challenged rabbits. Skin wounds were induced in 48 rabbits of 4 groups (n = 12 per group) and skin wounds were treated by sterile saline (control), TAD-loaded proniosomal gel topically on skin wound, DEX-injected rabbits, and DEX+TAD-loaded proniosomal gel for 4 weeks.

Background: N6-methyladenosine (m6A) methylation plays a key role in tumor progression. However, the significance of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) in biological processes of soft tissue sarcoma (STS) patients, and the relationship between METTL3 and STS are unclear.

Methods: The expression of METTL3 in STS and its relationship with patient prognosis were determined from database analyses.

: Liver diseases are a global health concern. Many in vitro liver models utilize cryopreserved primary human hepatocytes (PHHs), which commonly undergo post-thaw processing through colloidal silica gradients to remove debris and enrich for a viable PHH population. Post-thaw processing effects on healthy PHHs are partially understood, but the consequences of applying disease-origin PHHs to post-thaw density gradient separation have not been described.
