Article Abstract
Human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) are a valuable tool for studying human development and diseases. iPSCs can be generated by reprogramming from any somatic cells, however establishing primary cell cultures can involve invasive procedures (e.g., skin biopsy) and be labor-intensive. In this paper, we describe an efficient, reliable, and non-invasive method for cultivating primary urine-derived cells (UDCs) and efficiently reprogram them into iPSCs using a feeder-free and non-integrative system. This approach has several advantages: (i) UDCs collection and culture are non-invasive, straightforward, and do not require medical personnel; (ii) reprogramming UDCs using commercially available Sendai viruses is highly efficient and reliable; and (iii) iPSCs generated from UDCs demonstrate strong differentiation potential. To showcase the effectiveness of this method, we generated iPSC lines from UDCs of three control individuals and three patients with Fragile X syndrome.

Allergen immunotherapy (AIT) is the only treatment capable of modifying the natural history of allergic diseases by promoting immune tolerance. Initially developed for respiratory allergies, AIT has expanded to include food allergies, particularly through oral immunotherapy (OIT). This review explores the historical evolution, current applications, and future directions of AIT in pediatric patients.

Alpha oscillations have been implicated in the maintenance of working memory representations. Notably, when memorised content is spatially lateralised, the power of posterior alpha activity exhibits corresponding lateralisation during the retention interval, consistent with the retinotopic organisation of the visual cortex. Beyond power, alpha frequency has also been linked to memory performan ce, with faster alpha rhythms associated with enhanced retention.

Background: The river ecosystems provide habitats and source of water for a number of species including humans. The uncontrolled accumulation of pollutants in the aquatic environment enhances the development of antibiotic-resistant bacteria and genes.
Methods: Water samples were collected seasonally from different sites of Gomti and Ganga River.

Background: Several studies have suggested that adult human dermal fibroblasts (HDFa) may be a potential alternative source to mesenchymal stem cells for cell therapies. This study aims to characterize HDFa, adipose-derived stem cells (ADMSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) to investigate their proliferation, differentiation potential, mitochondrial respiration, and metabolomic profile. We identified molecules and characteristics that would differentiate MSCs from different sources or confirm their uniformity.

Various cancer therapeutic strategies have been designed for targeting tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), but TAM reprogramming-based monotherapy is often clinically hindered, likely due to the lack of a coordinated platform to initiate T cell-mediated immunity. Herein, we fabricated reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive human serum albumin (HSA)-based nanoparticles (PEG/IL12-IA NPs) consisting of indocyanine green (ICG), arginine (Arg), and interleukin 12 (IL12). Upon laser irradiation, the nanoparticles were found to be able to dissociate, thus facilitating the release of IL12.
