Article Abstract

Rotator cuff retear rates after repair have been variously reported as ranging from 5% to 40% for small to mediums tears and as high as 40% to 94% for large to massive tears. Thus strategies to enhance structural healing are relevant. In rabbits, combining oral losartan (which has antifibrotic effects by downregulating transforming growth factor-β1) and bone marrow stimulation (BMS) of the greater tuberosity, showed improved rotator cuff repair pull-out strength and highly organized tendon matrix in a chronic injury model, whereas BMS alone did not improve the mechanical properties. However, clinical studies show that BMS techniques have a positive impact on healing and retear rates. BMS stimulates migration of mesenchymal stem cells from bone marrow to the lesion, and this approach has been widely used to fill cartilage defects by fibrocartilage metaplasia. BMS is a straightforward and cost-effective technique; the use of multiple deeper bone tunnels is recommended.

Lymphotoxin β receptor (LTβR/TNFRSF3) signaling plays a crucial role in immune defense. Notably, LTβR-deficient (LTβR) mice exhibit severe defects in innate and adaptive immunity against various pathogens and succumb to infection. Here, we investigated the bone marrow (BM) and peritoneal cavity (PerC) compartments of LTβR mice during infection, demonstrating perturbed B-cell and T-cell subpopulations in the absence of LTβR signaling.

Background: Sjögren's syndrome (SS) is a chronic autoimmune disease delineated by excessive lymphocyte infiltration to the lacrimal or salivary glands, leading to dry eye and dry mouth. Exosomes secreted from mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) are known to have anti-inflammatory and tissue regeneration abilities. This study endeavored to demonstrate the effect of MSC-derived exosomes on the clinical parameter of dry eyes and associated pathology in SS mouse model.

To compare the efficacy of using bone marrow mesenchymal stem cell (BM-MSC) exosomes and injectable platelet rich fibrin (i-PRF) on the submandibular salivary glands (SMGs) of aged albino rats in restoring salivary gland structure and function. A total of 40 healthy male albino rats were used, two for obtaining the BM-MSCs, 10 for i-PRF preparation and seven adult rats (6-8 months old) represented the control group (Group 1). The remaining 21 rats were aged (18-20 months old) and divided into three groups of seven rats each; (Group 2): received no treatment, (Group 3): each rat received a single intraglandular injection of BM-MSC exosomes (50 μg/kg/dose suspended in 0.

Mitoribosome-Targeting Antibiotics Suppress Osteoclastogenesis and Periodontitis-Induced Bone Loss by Blocking Mitochondrial Protein Synthesis.

The onset and progression of periodontitis are closely related to metabolic reprogramming in the periodontal microenvironment, with osteoclasts playing a critical role in tissue destruction. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) of periodontal tissues from healthy individuals and patients with severe chronic periodontitis revealed a significant increase in the expression of mitochondrial-related genes during osteoclast differentiation, suggesting the critical role of mitochondrial function in this process. This study investigates the potential of the novel mitoribosome-targeting antibiotic radezolid in inhibiting osteoclast differentiation.

Background: Angioimmunoblastic T-cell lymphoma (AITL) is a rare and aggressive form of peripheral T-cell lymphoma, accounting for 1 - 2% of non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Diagnosis is challenging, and there is no established standard first-line treatment. This case report highlights a rare progression from AITL to therapy-related acute myeloid leukemia (AML-pCT) following cytotoxic chemotherapy.
