Background Recent studies have demonstrated that transplantation of adipose-derived stem cell (ADSC) can improve cardiac function in animal models myocardial infarction (MI). However, the mechanisms underlying beneficial effect are not fully understood. In this study, we characterized paracrine transplanted ADSC and investigated its relative importance versus direct differentiation mediated repair. Methodology/Principal Findings MI was experimentally induced mice by ligation left anterior...

The elderly are prone to fragility fractures, especially those suffering from type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) combined with osteoporosis. Although studies have confirmed the association between GNRI and prevalence of osteoporosis, relationship fracture risk individualized 10-year probability osteoporotic fractures estimated by FRAX remains unclear. This study aims delve into a hip (HF) major (MOF) evaluated in T2DM.
Abstract We report the availability of a digitized Chinese male and digitzed female typical population with no obvious abnormalities. The embalming milling procedures incorporate three technical improvements over earlier cadavers. Vascular perfusion coloured gelatin was performed to facilitate blood vessel identification. Embalmed cadavers were embedded in cryosectioned whole so as avoid section loss resulting from cutting body into smaller pieces. Milling at −25 °C prevented small...
Transplantation of stem cells into damaged hearts has had modest success as a treatment for ischemic heart disease. One the limitations is poor cell survival in diseased microenvironment. Prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 2 (PHD2) cellular oxygen sensor that regulates key transcription factors involved and inflammation: hypoxia-inducible factor nuclear factor-κB.We studied whether how PHD2 silencing human adipose-derived (ADSCs) enhances their cardioprotective effects after transplantation...
To facilitate prostate cancer imaging using targeted molecules, we constructed ultrasonic nanobubbles coupled with specific anti-PSMA (prostate membrane antigen) nanobodies, and evaluated their in vitro binding capacity vivo efficacy. The "targeted" nanobubbles, which were via a biotin-streptavidin system, had an average diameter of 487.60 ± 33.55 nm carried the nanobody as demonstrated by immunofluorescence. Microscopy revealed to PSMA-positive cells. Additionally, ultrasonography...
The important role of angiogenesis in cancer development has driven many researchers to investigate the prospects noninvasive diagnosis based on technology contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging. This paper presents a deep learning framework detect prostate sequential CEUS images. proposed method uniformly extracts features from both spatial and temporal dimensions by performing three-dimensional convolution operations, which captures dynamic information perfusion process encoded...
Abstract: In this study, the lipid targeted nanobubble carrying A10-3.2 aptamer against prostate specific membrane antigen was fabricated, and its effect in ultrasound imaging of cancer investigated. Materials including 2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidic acid, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine, 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoglycerol, carboxyl-modified 1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine,...

Abstract The United States Visible Human Project (VHP) created a digital image data set of complete human male (data acquisition finished in November 1994) and female December 1995) cadavers magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), computed tomography (CT), anatomical (anatomic serial section) modes. VHP aroused worldwide enthusiasm for Research (VHR), the is being used variety research educational domains. Korean (VKH) was produced March 2001. To accelerate VHR to promote virtual anatomy as...
Stimuli-responsive nanoprobes that integrate multi-modal imaging capacities are highly desirable for precise tumor visualization.
Ultrasound (US)-targeted microbubble destruction has been widely used as an effective drug-delivery system. However, nanobubbles (NBs) have better stability and stronger penetration than microbubbles, drug delivery assisted by US-targeted NB (UTND) still needs to be investigated. Our aim was investigate the effect of doxorubicin (DOX) on inhibition prostate cancer growth under UTND. Contrast-enhanced US imaging transplanted PC3 in mice showed that a combination 1 W/cm(2) power 100 Hz...
The poor immunogenicity of solid tumors limits the efficacy ofanti-programmed cell death protein 1 (anti-PD1)-based immune checkpoint blockade (ICB); thus, less than 30% patients with cancer exhibit a response. Currently, there is still lack effective strategies for improving tumor immunogenicity.The antitumor effect ultrasound-stimulated nanobubbles (USNBs) alone and in combination an anti-PD1 antibody was evaluated RM1 (prostate cancer), MC38 (colon cancer) B16 (melanoma) xenograft mouse...
Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a highly specific biological marker and treatment target for prostate cancer. So ultrasound molecular imaging using PSMA antibody-loaded targeted nanoscale microbubbles (MBs) may contribute to the early diagnosis of cancer.PSMA monoclonal MBs were prepared biotin-avidin technology. Antibody binding was evaluated with immunofluorescence. Using MKN45 gastric cancer cells as controls, targeting capability observed in (LNCaP C4-2) under optical...
