Kappa opioid receptors (KOR) expressed by peripheral pain-sensing neurons (nociceptors) are a promising target for development of effective and safer analgesics for inflammatory pain that are devoid of central nervous system adverse effects. Here we sought to delineate the signaling pathways that underlie peripheral KOR-mediated antinociception in adult male and female Sprague-Dawley rats. In an inflammatory model of pain, local intraplantar (i.

Background: It has been observed that methyltransferases-like 5 (METTL5) is a key mediator underlying tumorigenesis in humans. This study aimed to investigate the biological function, expression pattern, and clinical significance of METTL5 in oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).
Methods: Bioinformatics interrogations and immunohistochemical staining were utilized for determining the expression and localization of METTL5 in OSCC, and revealing the relationship between the expression of METTL5 and prognosis.

Influenza A virus (IAV) remains a pandemic threat. Particularly, the evolution and increased interspecies and intercontinental transmission of avian IAV H5N1 subtype highlight the importance of continuously studying the IAV and identifying the determinants of its pathogenesis. Host innate antiviral response is the first line of defense against IAV infection, and the transcription factor, the signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3), has emerged as a critical component of this response.

Monogenic disorders are a group of human diseases caused by mutations in single genes. While some disease-altering treatments offer relief and slow the progression of certain conditions, the majority of monogenic disorders still lack effective therapies. In recent years, gene therapy has appeared as a promising approach for addressing genetic disorders.

represent a common invasive infection etiological agent, whose potential carbapenem-resistance and hypermucoviscosity complicate the patient's management. Infection development often derives from gastrointestinal colonization; thus, it is fundamental to monitor asymptomatic colonization through surveillance protocols, especially for intensive care and immunocompromised patients. We described a six-month routine screening protocol from the Policlinico of Catania (Italy), while blood samples were collected from the same patients only in cases of a systemic infection suspicion.
