Article Abstract
Chimerism status evaluation is a routine test performed in post-hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) period. The aim of the study was to evaluate a quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qPCR) method (GenDx, Utrecht, the Netherlands) applicability for this purpose. The study included 74 recipient/donor pairs tested for informative markers: median of four and six informative markers was found for patients (related and unrelated donor, respectively). Higher sensitivity of qPCR method was confirmed by analysis of recipient post-HSCT samples (N = 800) among which microchimerism (0.1%-1% recipient DNA) was detected in 21.8% of cases. The ability to detect less than 1% of minor population, as opposed to the short tandem repeat (STR) method for which 1% is the limit, translated into earlier identification of a disease relapse for four patients in our study sample.

A considerable number of individuals are diagnosed with idiopathic trigeminal neuralgia. In order to achieve a more complete understanding of the pathophysiology, it is essential to adopt a range of novel approaches and utilize new animal models. This study investigated changes in the messenger RNA (mRNA) expression of ion-channels in a newly developed animal model of trigeminal neuropathic pain induced by cervical spinal dorsal horn compression.

Background: We conducted a transcriptomic analysis to examine cerebellar transcriptional changes in a mouse model of chronic intermittent alcohol exposure.
Methods: We established a mouse model of chronic intermittent alcohol exposure and conducted a cerebellar transcriptomic analysis. After identifying differentially expressed genes, we analyzed pathway enrichment using the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology.

Atopic dermatitis (AD) is an inflammatory skin disease that produces a variety of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. Chitinase-3-like protein 1 (CHI3L1, YKL-40) significantly contributes to AD-associated inflammatory response and is highly expressed in patients with AD. Therefore, this study elucidated the effects and potential mechanisms of human YKL-40 antibody on AD-affected skin.

Objective: Renibacterium salmoninarum, the causative agent of bacterial kidney disease, poses a major threat to both wild and aquaculture salmonid populations. Traditional detection methods typically involve lethal sampling to collect kidney tissues but are often impractical for species of conservation concern. This study evaluates nonlethal sampling techniques for detecting R.

Background: Ischemic stroke can damage the cerebral white matter, resulting in myelin loss and neurological deficits. Moreover, microglial activation plays an important role in ischemic stroke; therefore, inhibiting microglial activation has become an effective therapeutic target for ischemic stroke.
Objective: This study aimed to investigate the effects of electroacupuncture (EA) on microglial activation and polarization, and the role of oligodendrocyte genesis in myelin reformation after ischemic stroke.
