Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is a global health burden characterized by persistent airflow limitation and progressive lung damage. Despite extensive research, translating findings from bench to bedside remains a challenge. Precision Cut Lung Slices (PCLS) have emerged as a versatile tool in COPD research, offering unique advantages for understanding disease mechanisms and ...
YM7555 delivers both genes, which code for the ABeta and TAU, to muscle cells where the corresponding peptide is then made. The immune system of the individual receiving the genes and making the peptides then makes antibodies against the peptides. ...
The 2021 class of Leonhardt’s Launchpads Accelerator graduates include: MyoStim ED with ErectiStimTM: MyoStim ED is the first intervention for erectile dysfunction (ED) designed to address all major causes of ED: impaired blood flow, damaged blood vessels, nerve damage, and muscle deterioration. MyoStim ED utilizes non-invasive bioelectric stimulation sequences designed ...
In patients with anti-acetylcholine receptor (AchR) antibody-positive MG, the body’s own immune system over-responds, leading the body to attack its own healthy cells and produce antibodies to fight against AchR, a receptor located on muscle cells at the neuromuscular junction. As a result, communication between the nerves and ...
“There are hundreds of millions of people worldwide that suffer from degenerative cardiovascular disease where the root cause is the loss of healthy heart muscle cells, and where medical treatment options are limited. BlueRock’s authentic cellular therapy is a novel approach that has the potential to transform the lives of patients, but will require ...
IBM is an autoimmune condition in which cytotoxic T cells attack muscle. Patients suffering from IBM have no reliably effective drug treatments currently available to them. This therapeutic will also be investigated for the treatment of PBC, an autoimmune condition in which pathogenic T cells attack bile ducts. While treatments addressing ...
Uterine fibroids are clusters of muscle cells that grow faster than their neighbors. As many as 80 percent of women will develop uterine fibroids by age 50, but most experience no symptoms. ...
When compared with monotherapy, the combination therapy increased densities of key blood vessels, arteries, and smooth muscle cells in vascular walls. “HUCBCs are a source for blood stem cells, endothelial cell precursors, mensenchymal cell progenitors, and other multipotent and pluripotent stem ...
In "test tube" experiments, triclosan impaired the ability of isolated heart muscle cells and skeletal muscle fibers to contract. Specifically, the team evaluated the effects of triclosan on molecular channels in muscle cells that control the flow of calcium ions, creating muscle contractions. ...
