Sex is an important biological variable that impacts diverse physiological and pathological processes, including the progression of diabetic nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy one most common complications diabetes mellitus leading cause end-stage renal disease. The endothelial nitric oxide synthase-deficient (eNOS-/-) db/db mouse appropriate valuable model to study mechanisms in development because similarities features kidney disease this those humans. aim present was determine whether...
ABSTRACT Heterotopic ossification (HO) occurs when soft tissues are inappropriately converted to bony tissue. Several human diseases result in HO with few reliable treatment options. Animal models that naturally produce dermal ectopic bone (i.e., osteoderms), such as crocodilians, have never been utilized for studying these disorders humans. Here, a histological evaluation and staging criteria osteoderm development is described the first time American alligator ( Alligator mississipiensis )....
Synovial sarcoma, an uncommon cancer, typically affects young adults. Survival rates range from 36% to 76%, decreasing significantly when metastases are present. sarcomas form in soft tissues, often near bones, with about 10% demonstrating ossification the tumor. The literature is inconclusive on whether presence of portends a worse prognosis. To this end, we analyzed our genetic mouse models synovial sarcoma determine extent tumors and its relationship morbidity. We noted higher within...
ABSTRACT The Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID19) pandemic caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome-Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) is an ongoing threat to global public health. To this end, intense efforts are underway develop reagents aid in diagnostics, enhance preventative measures, and provide therapeutics for managing COVID-19. recent emergence of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variants with enhanced transmissibility, altered antigenicity, significant escape existing monoclonal antibodies vaccines...
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Traditional assessment of colorectal cancer includes gross anatomy, routine histology, special stains, and immunohistochemistry. Newer methods, including molecular techniques, can better predict recurrence potential directed treatments. Distinction benign versus malignant neoplasms leads to a series additional tests that are useful in guiding diagnosis, prognosis, treatment. In this article, we focus on the histological grade stage tumor, utilizing College American...

The external jugular vein (EJV) has been commonly used for clinical procedures in veterinary medicine, while the internal (IJV) mainly research. Limited literature regarding anatomical variants both EJV and IJV is available. objectives of this descriptive retrospective study were to identify number dogs with variations veins canine patients undergoing CT head neck characterize these variations. Of 1000 dogs, 193 (19.3%) had Six types identified. most common Type I was absence linguofacial...
<h3>ABSTRACT</h3> Characterization of the molecular mutations in colorectal cancers has made great progress since initial report by Fearon and Vogelstein describing a series histologic changes that correlate to mutations. Since 1990, numerous mutational pathways have been associated with 1 or more actionable targets leading precise treatments development cancers, including inherited sporadic ones. The accumulation leads acquisition cancer-promoting qualities such as increased cellular...
Active learning, a learning style that incorporates hands‐on activities allow the learner to interact with course material, has been shown improve student outcomes. While labs are active by nature, traditional undergraduate science laboratories expository, requiring students follow steps in procedure attain predetermined result (i.e., “cookbook labs”). it is well‐established higher educational value than passive physical act of doing lab activity not enough enable understand concepts, make...
