The interaction between chemokine receptor type 4 (CXCR4) and its ligand, stromal cell-derived factor (SDF)-1, plays an important role in stem cell mobilization and migration in ischemic tissues.MicroRNAs (miRs) are key regulators of stem cell function and are involved in regulation of stem cell survival and differentiation to adopt different cell
OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Research ethics services are critical to the clinical, research, and educational missions of an academic health science center.Our ethics program aims to develop a culture where investigators are as intellectually engaged in ethical issues of scientific integrity as they are in study design, data collection, and implementation.MET
Patients undergoing cerebral aneurysm clipping are at risk for cerebral ischemia.Ischemic tolerance varies among individuals.Hence, multimodal intraoperative neuromonitoring (IONM) is essential.IONM is not available in many centers.This case report highlights the utilization of processed electroencephalography (EEG) as a cerebral ischemia monitor d
Fluctuating asymmetry Gift Set (FA) may serve as a reliable indicator of the functional importance of structures within an organism.Primary locomotor structures often display lower levels of FA than other paired structures, highlighting that selection can maintain symmetry in fitness-enhancing traits.Polyphenic species represent an attractive model
Resistance to polymyxins when treating multidrug-resistant (MDR) Gram-negative bacterial infections limit therapeutic options.Here, we report the synthesis of a nickel (Ni) doped Zinc oxide (NZO) combined with black phosphorus (BP) (NZB) nanocomposite and its synergistic action with polymyxin B (PolB) against polymyxin-resistant Escherichia coli ha
