Introduction: Despite the progress in diagnostics and treatment modalities, the survival rate of oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) patients has remained unchanged. Early diagnosis of the disease helps in better treatment and prognosis. Identifying clinicopathological and histopathological parameters that help predict disease progression is crucial.
Objectives: To assess the significance of various clinical and histopathological factors in OSCC and to correlate the patterns of invasion of tumour (POI), stromal inflammation, and lymphovascular invasion with the histopathological grading of OSCC.
Materials And Methods: This study included 30 oral squamous cell carcinoma cases from 2015 to 2021. The surgically operated cases of OSCC were obtained from the archives of the Oral Pathology Department. The subjects were categorized according to the degree of differentiation of OSCC. The parameters like the pattern of invasion of tumour (POI), stromal inflammation, and lymphovascular invasion were assessed and correlated with the different histopathological grades of OSCC.
Results: We observed a statistically significant correlation between the pattern of invasion and stromal inflammation with histopathological grades of OSCC. There was no significant association between lympho-vascular invasion and histopathological grades of OSCC.
Conclusion: We conclude that histopathological parameters like the pattern of invasion and stromal inflammation significantly impact different grades of OSCC. These parameters should be included in routine histo-pathological reports for predicting clinical outcomes and management of the disease.

To fully harness mesenchymal-stromal-cells (MSCs)' benefits during Normothermic Machine Perfusion (NMP), we developed an advanced NMP platform coupled with a MSC-bioreactor and investigated its bio-molecular effects and clinical feasibility using rat and porcine models. The study involved three work packages: 1) Development (n = 5): MSC-bioreactors were subjected to 4 h-liverless perfusion; 2) Rat model (n = 10): livers were perfused for 4 h on the MSC-bioreactor-circuit or with the standard platform; 3) Porcine model (n = 6): livers were perfused using a clinical device integrated with a MSC-bioreactor or in its standard setup. MSCs showed intact stem-core properties after liverless-NMP.

Article Synopsis
- Macrophages are a significant part of the heart's structure and play different roles in both healthy and diseased states, originating from either embryonic or definitive hematopoiesis.
- The two main populations of cardiac macrophages can be distinguished by the presence of the CCR2 receptor, with embryonic-derived ones involved in tissue maintenance, while CCR2 macrophages are linked to inflammation and damage.
- Recent advancements in single-cell RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics have deepened our understanding of macrophage diversity and their interactions within the heart, offering potential new pathways for therapeutic targets and diagnostics.

Introduction: Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is one of the leading causes of death and disability worldwide. Treatments for TBI patients are limited and none has been shown to provide prolonged and long-term neuroprotective or neurorestorative effects. A growing body of evidence suggests a link between TBI-induced neuro-inflammation and neurodegenerative post-traumatic disorders.

Article Synopsis
- Periodontitis results from an imbalance between host immune responses and microbial interactions, leading to inflammation and loss of bone structure.
- The transition from gingivitis to periodontitis may be influenced by inflammation's proximity to bone, affecting bone resorption and formation.
- Recent research using single-cell RNA sequencing has revealed the distinct roles of various cell types in inflammation and bone remodeling, highlighting the complex interactions in conditions like periodontitis and orthodontic movement.
Lack of fibro-inflammatory response in human mammary adipose tissue in obesity.

Background: Understanding how obesity impacts human mammary adipose tissue (MAT) biology is crucial for deciphering its role in mammary epithelium during both physiological and pathophysiological processes, including breast cancer. Hypertrophic mammary adipocytes and Crown-Like Structures are present in MAT of patients with obesity but whether these changes initiate a fibro-inflammatory response at the tissue level remains insufficiently explored.
Objective: We investigated the markers of adipose tissue dysfunction (immune cell infiltration, secretion pattern and fibrosis) in tumor-free MAT of patients with obesity versus patients who are lean.
