Abstract The study aimed to develop cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) from pumpkin seed hull waste, referred to as pumpkin seed hull cellulose nanocrystals (PSHCNCs), and further evaluated the effect of incorporation (2.5–1...

ABSTRACT Background and Aims Sickle cell disease is a genetic disorder whose pathophysiology is primarily characterized by vasoocclusive crises and hemolytic crises. The stationary phase describes the interval between tw...

Abstract Objective To systematically evaluate the efficacy differences between stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS) and whole-brain radiotherapy (WBRT) in treating brain metastases from small cell lung cancer (SCLC), and to a...

Abstract Background/objectives Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), particularly myocardial infarction (MI) and heart failure (HF), remain global causes of morbidity and mortality, despite the current treatment options. Stem ...

ABSTRACT There is a growing interest in the study of unspecialized mesenchymal stem cells, for there are still some discussions about their in vitro behavior. Regenerative medicine is a science undergoing improvement whi...

Mucosal-associated invariant T (MAIT) cells express a semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) that detects microbial metabolites presented by the nonpolymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC)–like molecule MR1. Th...

Raman scattering can provide information on molecular fingerprints, which have been widely applied in various fields of material science and nanobiotechnology. Notably, low interference with water molecules in obtaining ...

Abstract This study investigated the amino acid and nucleotide-related compound composition and taste characteristics of cultured muscle tissue (CMT) obtained by culturing satellite cells isolated from chicken and cattle...

From the moment cellphones first appeared in Japan 30 years ago, their sales have been growing at a dramatic pace. However, Japan's cellphone market is now saturated. It is monopolized by three major cellphone carri...

ABSTRACT Retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration represents a cardinal etiology of irreversible vision loss in glaucoma, where efficacious regenerative therapies remain scarce. RGC replacement therapy holds promise for ...

Two adult domestic shorthair cats were evaluated for progressive neurologic deficits caused by spinal cord compression secondary to vertebral osteosarcoma, giant-cell subtype. Feline giant cell osteosarcoma represents a ...

Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC), or urothelial carcinoma, is the most common malignant tumor of the canine urinary bladder or urethra, often causing urinary obstruction. While chemotherapy is generally considered as pr...

Recent research has developed systems for the chemical looping (CL) gasification of biomass using iron (Fe)-based metal oxides as oxygen carriers (OCs). The present study constructed a CL fuel cell utilizing lignosulfona...

The purpose of the study was to determine the difference in participants’ attention to announcements and compliance with safety behaviors when talking on a cell phone and when talking face-to-face in a simulated commer...

Abstract Cultured meat is under investigation as an environmentally sustainable substitute for conventional animal-derived meat. Employing a scaffolding technique is one approach to developing cultured meat products. The...

Water build-up has continued to be one of the leading causes of performance variability and loss of durability in proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), especially at the high current density and transient operati...

Background: Copper (Cu) is an essential trace metal used as a catalytic cofactor for many enzymes. However, it can have nocive effects when it participates in the Fenton reaction, producing reactive oxygen species (ROS)....

This paper presents the analysis of the technical feasibility to use a photovoltaic system to supply the electrical demand on two referential commercial aircraft, Airbus A340-300 and Cessna Conquest 441. The methodology ...

Abstract Sarcopenia, the age-related muscle atrophy, is a serious concern as it is associated with frailty, reduced physical functions, and increased mortality risk. Protein supplementation is essential for preserving mu...

IntroductionThe limited availability of suitable scaffolds for three-dimensional (3D) cell culture has driven the development of new biomaterials. In this study, we developed a porcine fibrin matrix gel (PFMG) derived en...

This study aims to examine the role of exosomes derived from human urine-derived stem cells (hUSCs-Exo) in the in vitro construction of a composite structure comprising hUSCs and a porcine urethral decellularized matrix...

Abstract Objective Sickle cell anemia (SCA) is associated with substantial end‑organ morbidity, yet the circulating microRNA (miRNA) landscape in clinically stable, comorbidity‑free adults with SCA is poorly defined....

Extracellular nucleotides and nucleosides activate signaling pathways that play major roles in the physiology and pathophysiology of the gastrointestinal tract. Ectonucleotidases hydrolyze extracellular nucleotides and t...
