Traditional tumour-dynamic therapy still inevitably faces the critical challenge of limited reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating efficiency due to tumour hypoxia, extreme pH condition for Fenton reaction, and unsustainable mono-catalytic reaction. To …

Introduction: Arterial restenosis caused by intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a serious complication after vascular interventions. In the rat carotid balloon injury model, we injected phosphate buffer saline (PBS), rapamycin-phosphate buffer saline suspension …

Kawasaki disease (KD) occurs in young children, has an unknown etiology, and can cause such life-threatening complications as coronary artery aneurysm. A mouse model using Lactobacillus casei cell wall extract (LCWE) with intraperitoneal injection was …

Background: Phthalocyanine (PC) and naphthalocyanine (NC) dyes have long garnered interest as theranostic agents for optical imaging and phototherapy due to their near-infrared absorbance, photostability, imaging contrast, and proven safety in clinical …

Ischemic stroke often leads to permanent neurological impairments, largely due to limited neuroplasticity in adult central nervous system. Here, we first showed that the expression of Sonic Hedgehog (Shh) in corticospinal neurons (CSNs) peaked at the 2nd …

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is essential for normal brain development and regulates processes of vascular maturation. The pathogenesis of intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) relates to the fragility of the immature capillaries in the germinal …

Notwithstanding recanalization treatments in the acute stage of stroke, many survivors suffer long-term impairments. Physical rehabilitation is the only widely available strategy for chronic-stage recovery, but its optimization is hindered by limited …

Preeclampsia (PE) is characterized by maternal hypertension, fetal growth restriction (FGR), and increased inflammation and populations of cytotoxic NK cells (cNKs) and inflammatory T-Helper 17 cells (TH17s). Both cytotoxic NK cells and TH17 cells are …

Our findings provide evidence that macrophage pyroptosis contributes to the development of AAA and that the activation of the miR-146a/TRAF6 axis by pterostilbene protects against macrophage pyroptosis and AAA formation. … … Pterostilbene alleviates …

While microplastics have been recently detected in human blood and the placenta, their impact on human health is not well understood. Using a mouse model of environmental exposure during pregnancy, our group has previously reported that exposure to …
