Fetal brain lesions are characterized by multifactorial genesis. Hypoxia is the central pathogenetic syndrome causing various structural changes of the brain and its malformations. A variety of morphological changes explains the polymorphism of clinical symptoms and long-term sequelae. The magnitude of the brain alterations depends on the gestational age at the moment of hypoxia and its intensity.

Inflammatory adhesion mediates myocardial segmental necroptosis induced by mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein in acute myocardial infarction.
Cell Commun Signal

Purpose: Cardiomyocyte death is a major cytopathologic response in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and involves complex inflammatory interactions. Although existing reports indicating that mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is involved in macrophage necroptosis and inflammasome activation, the downstream mechanism of MLKL in necroptosis remain poorly characterized in AMI.
Methods: MLKL knockout mice (MLKL), RIPK3 knockout mice (RIPK3), and macrophage-specific MLKL conditional knockout mice (MLKL) were established.

Replacing cells lost during the progression of neurodegenerative disorders holds potential as a therapeutic strategy. Unfortunately, the majority of cells die post-transplantation, which creates logistical and biological challenges for cell therapy approaches. The cause of cell death is likely to be multifactorial in nature but has previously been correlated with hypoxia in the graft core.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients often suffer from complications such as anemia as the kidney function declines. More than 25% of CKD hemodialysis patients in China are complicated with renal anemia due to renal and hepatic impairment in the production of erythropoietin (EPO). In recent years, prolyl hydroxylase domain (PHD) inhibitors have been approved in China and Japan for the treatment of CKD patients complicated with anemia.

Article Synopsis
- Uterus transplantation is currently the only solution for women with absolute uterine infertility, such as those with Rokitansky syndrome, allowing them to experience pregnancy and childbirth.
- There are significant challenges with uterus transplantation, including the risks of ischemia-reperfusion injury and a notable thrombotic complication rate of up to 20%, which can lead to graft rejection.
- This protocol aims to outline the surgical steps for obtaining porcine uteruses and implementing dynamic preservation through machine perfusion, which may reduce hypoxic injury compared to traditional static cold storage methods.

The brain is an organ that consumes a substantial amount of oxygen, and a reduction in oxygen concentration can rapidly lead to significant and irreversible brain injury. The progression of brain injury during hypoxia involves the depletion of intracellular adenosine triphosphate (ATP) due to decreased oxidative phosphorylation in the inner mitochondrial membrane. Allopurinol is a purine analog inhibitor of xanthine oxidoreductase that protects against hypoxic/ischemic brain injury; however, its underlying mechanism of action remains unclear.
