Article Synopsis
  • Primary liver cancer is a highly lethal type of cancer, and traditional treatments have limitations; minimally invasive radiofrequency ablation (RFA) is gaining attention for its potential benefits.
  • This study compares the efficacy and safety of RFA with traditional surgery (TS) for small liver cancer by analyzing data from various medical databases, covering research between 2008 and 2023.
  • The findings indicate that while TS offers better long-term survival rates, RFA has lower complication rates, suggesting it may be a safer option despite its limitations in extending life.

Article Synopsis
  • A research team aimed to create a Risk factor assessment table for hyperoxemia in patients post-cardiopulmonary bypass heart surgery using the Delphi method for early prediction and assessment.
  • The team reviewed relevant Chinese and English literature, collected expert opinions, and drafted a preliminary table that identified 21 risk factors across four dimensions.
  • After consulting 14 experts through two rounds of questionnaires, they finalized the table, achieving high response rates and strong expert consensus on its importance and feasibility.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examines how aging affects pituitary function, particularly the production of prolactin (PRL), and suggests that neuregulin 1 (Nrg1) plays a role in this process.
  • Analysis from the GEPIA database showed a positive correlation between TRPM8 expression and PRL levels in normal human pituitary tissues, indicating that TRPM8 might help regulate pituitary aging by influencing PRL production.
  • Treatment with Nrg1 delayed cellular aging in lactotrophs and promoted PRL secretion, while melatonin enhanced this effect by activating Nrg1/ErbB4 signaling and increasing TRPM8 expression.

In contrast to prior findings that have illustrated the conversion of non-neuronal cells into functional neurons through the specific targeting of polypyrimidine tract-binding protein 1 (PTBP1), accumulated evidence suggests the impracticality of inducing neuronal transdifferentiation through suppressing PTBP1 expression in pathological circumstances. Therefore, the present study explored the effect of knocking down PTBP1 under physiological conditions on the transdifferentiation of mouse hippocampal neuron HT22 cells and mouse astrocyte (MA) cells. A total of 20 µM negative control small interfering (si)RNA and siRNA targeting PTBP1 were transfected into HT22 and MA cells using Lipo8000 for 3 and 5 days, respectively.

Role of CXCL10 in Spinal Cord Injury.

Int J Med Sci

December 2022

Wuxi School of Medicine, Jiangnan University, Wuxi 214122, Jiangsu, China.

Spinal cord injury (SCI) results in acute inflammatory responses and secondary damages, including neuronal and glial cell death, axonal damage and demyelination, and blood-brain barrier (BBB) damage, eventually leading to neuronal dysfunction and other complications. C-X-C motif Chemokine Ligand 10 (CXCL10) is expressed after the injury, playing multiple roles in the development and progression of SCI. Moreover, the CXCL10 antagonist can restrict inflammatory immune responses and promote neuronal regeneration and functional recovery.
