Cyanotoxins are toxic substances produced by cyanobacteria, or blue-green algae, which can proliferate in water bodies under conditions like high nutrient levels and warm temperatures. There are over 1,118 different cyanotoxins identified globally in freshwater environments across 66 countries, illustrating the widespread nature of this ...
Wu et al applied TMT to label samples from 10 HCC patients, and found plasminogen as a prognostic biomarker for HBV-related acute-on-chronic liver failure. Similar strategy is also applied in the biomarker discovery of gastric cancer, glioma, and glioblastoma. ...
CASE PRESENTATION A 70-year-old female had a ground-level fall. Computed tomography imaging showed sacral insufficiency fractures in the left ala. No lumbar fracture was observed. Conservative treatment was initiated but the patient was referred 6 weeks post injury, unable to mobilize with a walker and needing a wheelchair. There was no anterior pelvic pain with palpation or weight bearing, but ...
Biliary disease is a term used to describe diseases that affect the biliary system, which can result in inflammation, fibrosis, bile duct destruction, and eventually liver failure. It also frequently leads to secondary infections and chronic irritation, such as bile duct stones, which can lead to malignant tumors. ...
Heart damage or inflammation can induce fibroblasts to overproduce fibrous material, causing cardiac fibrosis, which hardens the heart muscle and impairs heart function. Heart failure, liver disease, and kidney failure are just a few of the major conditions that can result from cardiac fibrosis. ...
The lengthy battle between people and varied bodily, chemical, and organic insults that trigger cell damage (e.g., merchandise of tissue harm, metabolites, and/or infections) have led to the evolution of assorted adaptive responses. These responses are triggered by recognition of damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs) and/or pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs), normally by cells ...
Here, in this blog, you will come to know about the conditions that indicate the requirement for a liver transplant. Now, let’s check out those points below – Acute liver failure This acute liver failure condition takes place when a healthy liver suffers an immense injury. However, ...
Publication Summary: Conventional cell therapy and tissue engineering approaches to treating liver diseases and injury are limited by low cell retention, poor engraftment, poor graft durability and complications including portal hypertension. Integration of next generation technologies such as 3D bioprinting is an essential step towards the clinical success of these promising ...
More than nine million people die due to internal organ failure and one percent of this number is due to liver disease. In 1990, more than 27,000 deaths in the USA were caused by liver failure. From the numerous reviews on liver failure and associated support therapies, there is increasing ...
