Adrenal Cushing’s syndrome is caused by excess production of glucocorticoid from adrenocortical tumors and hyperplasias, which leads to metabolic disorders. We performed whole-exome sequencing 49 blood-tumor pairs RNA 44 cortisol-producing adenomas (ACAs), adrenocorticotropic hormone–independent macronodular hyperplasias (AIMAHs), oncocytomas (ADOs). identified a hotspot in the PRKACA gene with L205R mutation 69.2% (27 out 39) ACAs validated 65.5% total 87 ACAs. Our data revealed that...

Abstract Vascularization and efficient perfusion are long-standing challenges in cardiac tissue engineering. Here we report engineered perfusable microvascular constructs, wherein human embryonic stem cell-derived endothelial cells (hESC-ECs) seeded both into patterned microchannels the surrounding collagen matrix. In vitro, hESC-ECs lining luminal walls readily sprout anastomose with de novo-formed tubes matrix under flow. When implanted on infarcted rat hearts, microvessel grafts integrate...

Abstract Early warning of tumor formation is crucial for the classification, treatment, and prognosis patients. Here, a new strategy reported, aimed at realizing this goal based on imaging aerobic glycolysis processes using nitrogen‐doped carbon dots (N‐CDs) as fluorescent probes. The intensity photoluminescence emitted by N‐CDs specifically enhanced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD + , oxidized) in physiological environment. allow few (five to ten) abnormal cells spontaneous...

We recently demonstrated that oridonin could induce apoptosis and senescence of colon cancer cells in vitro vivo. However, the underlying mechanism remains unknown. In this study, involvement reactive oxygen species oridonin-induced cell death was investigated adenocarcinoma-derived SW1116 cells. Oridonin increased intracellular hydrogen peroxide levels reduced glutathione content a dose-dependent manner. N-acetylcysteine, scavenger, not only blocked increase depletion, but also induced by...

Tissue engineering approaches combine a bioscaffold with stem cells to provide biological substitutes that can repair bone defects and eventually improve tissue functions. The prospective should have good osteoinductivity. Surface chemical roughness modifications are regarded as valuable strategies for developing bioscaffolds because of their positive effects on enhancing osteogenic differentiation. However, the synergistic combination two is currently poorly studied. In this work,...

Tissue engineering technology that adopts mesenchymal stem cells combined with scaffolds presents a promising strategy for tissue regeneration. Human adipose-derived (hADSCs) have attracted considerable attention in bone their osteogenic potential. The extracellular matrix (ECM) is critical the cell niche as physical support and known to be able maintain properties. In this study, ECM derived from ADSCs was produced termed ADM. ADM demonstrated markedly promote proliferation of marrow...

Polyetheretherketone (PEEK), particularly its sulfonated form (SPEEK), has emerged as a promising synthetic biomaterial for artificial bone implants, providing an alternative to conventional titanium metal. However, postoperative infections pose critical challenge, driven by diverse and antibiotic-resistant bacteria. To address this issue, we propose the modification of SPEEK surface using thin graphene oxide (GO) film containing silver (Ag) ions. The resulting coating exhibits substantial...

Synthetic triterpenoid methyl-2-cyano-3, 12-dioxooleana-1, 9(11)-dien-28-oate (CDDO-Me) has been shown as a promising agent against ovarian cancer. However, the underlying mechanism is not well understood. Here, we demonstrate that CDDO-Me directly interacts with Hsp90 in cells by cellular thermal shift assay. treatment leads to upregulation of Hsp70 and degradation clients (ErbB2 Akt), indicating inhibition cells. Knockdown significantly inhibits cell proliferation enhances...
