AI Article Synopsis

  • Multiple myeloma (MM) is a type of cancer involving the uncontrolled growth of abnormal plasma cells and affects the bone tissue microenvironment.
  • Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT) plays a significant role in MM progression, influencing the cancer through various biological pathways, and obesity can exacerbate this by increasing BMAT mass and disrupting bone health.
  • Factors such as impaired fat metabolism and increased harmful substances from fat cells are linked to the progression of MM, prompting a thorough review of existing research on the connection between excess fat and the risk of developing this cancer.

Article Abstract

Multiple myeloma (MM), also referred to as Kahler's disease, is a cancer characterized by the uncontrolled growth of abnormal plasma cells and is associated with alterations in the bone tissue microenvironment. Bone marrow adipose tissue (BMAT), which comprises approximately ten percent of total body fat, can influence the progression, survival, and drug resistance of MM cells through paracrine, hormonal, and metabolic pathways. Obesity can lead to an increase in BMAT mass, which not only disrupts bone metabolism but also reduces bone density, potentially progressing from monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance, a benign condition, to MM. A range of factors, including impaired fatty acid metabolism, increased production of adipokines that support myeloma, and heightened expression of oncogenic microRNAs in multiple myeloma, contribute to the progression of this incurable blood cancer. To better understand the relationship between excess adipose tissue accumulation and the risk of developing multiple myeloma, a comprehensive review of published data was conducted.

Leaky gut syndrome (LGS) is caused by intestinal epithelial injury and increased intestinal permeability due to a variety of factors, including chronic stress, inflammatory bowel disease, diabetes, surgery, and chemotherapy, resulting in an increased influx of matter from the intestinal lumen causing constipation and bacteremia. To our knowledge, this is the first known case of LGS along with () bacteremia in a neurodegenerative disease patient. The patient was an 81-year-old male with a history of Alzheimer's disease, cerebral infarction, and diverticulitis in a psychiatric hospital, fed via a nasogastric tube.

Purpose: To identify key molecular components within the femoroacetabular impingement hip and compare the findings between male and female patients across varying age groups.

Methods: All patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) without hip dysplasia were included. During hip arthroscopy, performed at University of Wisconsin Health, loose articular cartilage, excess synovium, damaged labral tissue, and minimal adipose tissue were debrided only as needed for visualization and tissue repair purposes and collected.

Purpose: Cartilage repair necessitates adjunct therapies such as cell-based approaches, which commonly use MSCs and chondrocytes but is limited by the formation of fibro-hyaline cartilage. Articular cartilage-derived chondroprogenitors(CPs) offer promise in overcoming this, as they exhibit higher chondrogenic and lower hypertrophic phenotypes. The study aimed to compare the efficacy of various cell types derived from adult and foetal cartilage suspended in platelet-rich plasma(PRP) in repairing chondral defects in an Ex-vivo Osteochondral Unit(OCU) model.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is a growing global healthcare burden. Patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) are more likely to acquire MetS than the general population. Recent research suggests that the interaction of adipose tissue products, such as adiponectin resistin and uric acid, is essential in MetS onset.
