NIH-white mice were injected with varying doses of Plasmodium vinckei or Plasmodium yoelii lethal via the hind footpad (FP), intraperitoneal (IP), subcutaneous (SC) routes. Survival was dependent on the dose of the inoculum and route of injection. Injection via the IP and SC routes led to higher mortality than the FP route. The results showed that at a dose of 10 4 parasitized erythrocytes injected IP led to 100% mortality, whereas the same dose injected via the FP route gave protection.

Background: Asthma is a prevalent respiratory disease, and its management remains largely unsatisfactory. Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have been demonstrated to be efficacious in reducing airway inflammation in experimental allergic diseases, representing a potential alternative treatment for asthma. Migrasomes are recently identified extracellular vesicles (EVs) generated in migrating cells and facilitate intercellular communication.

Rhabdomyolysis or Crush syndrome-related AKI (RM/CS-AKI) has high mortality, and there is no effective early on-site treatment method. The critical pathogenic factor of RM/CS-AKI is the excessive free myoglobin (Mb) in blood circulation. Here, based on the concept of creating a "mobile barrier", we develop an anti-Mb rabbit monoclonal antibody (RabMAb) with high specificity, affinity, stability, and broad species reactivity.

Hypoxia-regulated miR-103-3p/FGF2 axis in adipose-derived stem cells promotes angiogenesis by vascular endothelial cells during ischemic tissue repair.

Background: Identifying factors mediating adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs)-induced endothelial cell angiogenesis in hypoxic skin flap tissue is critical for reconstruction. While the paracrine action of VEGF by adipose-derived stem cells (ADSCs) is established in promoting endothelial cell angiogenesis, the role of FGF2 and its regulatory mechanisms in ADSCs paracrine secretion remains unclear.

Methods: We induced hypoxia and examined the expression level of FGF2 in ADSCs using ELISA, qRT-PCR, and western blotting.

Chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain poses significant clinical challenges and severely impacts patient quality of life. Sodium ion channels are crucial in regulating neuronal excitability and pain. Our research indicates that the microRNA-30b (miR-30b) in rat dorsal root ganglia (DRG) contributes to chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain by regulating the Nav1.

Acute lung injury (ALI) is a clinically common disease with high mortality, characterized by tissue damage caused by excessive activation of inflammation. TRIM7 is an E3 ligase that plays an important role in regulating viral infection, tumor progression and innate immune response. But its function in ALI is unclear.
