Machine learning-based model for behavioural analysis in rodents applied to the forced swim test.

Scientific reports
The Forced Swim Test (FST) is a widely used preclinical model for assessing antidepressant efficacy, studying stress response, and evaluating depressive-like behaviours in rodents. Over the last 10 years, more than 5500 scientific articles reporting ...

Analysis of 2-dimensional regional differences in the peripapillary scleral fibroblast cytoskeleton of normotensive and hypertensive mouse eyes.

Scientific reports
These studies aimed to study the mechanisms of glaucomatous peripapillary scleral (PPS) remodeling by investigating IOP-induced changes in fibroblast actin-collagen alignment and nuclear morphology in mouse PPS. Cryosections from the optic nerve head...

Artificial intelligence derived grading of mustard gas induced corneal injury and opacity.

Scientific reports
Artificial intelligence (AI) has emerged as a transformative tool in ophthalmology for disease diagnosis and prognosis. However, use of AI for assessing corneal damage due to chemical injury in live rabbits remains lacking. This study aimed to develo...

Cold receptor TRPM8 as a target for migraine-associated pain and affective comorbidities.

The journal of headache and pain
BACKGROUND: Genetic variations in the Trpm8 gene that encodes the cold receptor TRPM8 have been linked to protection against polygenic migraine, a disabling condition primarily affecting women. Noteworthy, TRPM8 has been recently found in brain areas...

Uncovering injury-specific proteomic signatures and neurodegenerative risks in single and repetitive traumatic brain injury.

Signal transduction and targeted therapy
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a major public health concern associated with an increased risk of neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and chronic traumatic encephalopathy, yet the underlying molec...

Identification of mitophagy-related biomarkers in severe acute pancreatitis: integration of WGCNA, machine learning algorithms and scRNA-seq.

Frontiers in immunology
BACKGROUND: Mitophagy is a highly conserved cellular process in eukaryotic cells that selectively clears dysfunctional or damaged mitochondria through autophagy mechanisms to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis. However, the role of mitophagy in the p...

Mechanistic exploration of hexokinase 2 and metabolism in diabetic cardiomyopathy.

Molecular medicine reports
The pathogenesis of diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) remains incompletely understood. The present study employed weighted gene co‑expression network analysis to analyze the DCM transcriptome dataset from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database to ide...

The Role of Hydrogen Sulfide in the Localization and Structural-Functional Organization of p53 Following Traumatic Brain Injury: Development of a YOLO Model for Detection and Quantification of Apoptotic Nuclei.

International journal of molecular sciences
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) triggers a cascade of molecular and cellular disturbances, including apoptosis, inflammation, and destabilization of neuronal connections. The transcription factor p53 plays a pivotal role in regulating cell fate followin...

CDKN1A and EGR1 are key genes for endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced ferroptosis in MASH.

Free radical biology & medicine
Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis (MASH) is a complex liver disease whose pathogenesis involving endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and ferroptosis. However, key regulatory genes remain poorly understood, hindering the development of ef...

iPSC-RPE patch restores photoreceptors and regenerates choriocapillaris in a pig retinal degeneration model.

JCI insight
Dry age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a leading cause of untreatable vision loss. In advanced cases, retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) cell loss occurs alongside photoreceptor and choriocapillaris degeneration. We hypothesized that an RPE-patc...
