Deep-learning analysis of 3D microarchitectural remodeling in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.

Science (New York, N.Y.)
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), a genetic heart disease defined by unexplained cardiac wall thickening, is a leading cause of sudden death worldwide. However, the three-dimensional organization of cardiac tissue underlying left ventricular hypertr...

Targeted nanodelivery strategies for atrial fibrillation: concomitant targeting of fibrosis suppression and electrical conduction restoration through advanced nanobiotechnology.

Journal of nanobiotechnology
Atrial fibrillation (AF), the most common form of cardiac arrhythmia, is closely associated with atrial fibrosis and electrophysiological remodeling, both of which contribute to its persistence and recurrence. Current treatment strategies remain limi...

Transformer-based multiclass segmentation pipeline for basic kidney histology.

Scientific reports
Current applications of deep learning in renal pathology focused on anatomical structures with morphology, yet little research has focused on the performance of models, such as versatility, in regions with severe kidney damage. In this study, we expl...

Spatial-reprogramming derived GPNMB macrophages interact with COL6A3 fibroblasts to enhance vascular fibrosis in glioblastoma.

Genome medicine
BACKGROUND: Neoadjuvant therapy plays an important role in the treatment of glioblastoma (GBM), but a considerable proportion of patients remain unresponsive to the combination of immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) and antiangiogenic therapy. Understan...

Development and Validation of a Predictive Model for Severe Tubular Atrophy/Interstitial Fibrosis in Patients with IgA Nephropathy: Multicenter Retrospective Study.

JMIR medical informatics
BACKGROUND: Severe tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis are critical pathological features associated with poor prognosis in IgA nephropathy (IgAN). The early identification of patients at high risk for severe tubular damage could guide clinical man...

Multiphoton microscopy and tissue clearing for 3D characterization of the vasculature and fibrosis remodeling in rat dystrophic skeletal muscle.

Scientific reports
Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is characterized by progressive muscle fiber degeneration and replacement by fibrous and adipose tissues, alongside significant vascular abnormalities. Traditional two-dimensional (2D) histological assessments provid...

Non-invasive assessment techniques for renal fibrosis: advances and perspectives.

Renal failure
Renal fibrosis is a critical pathological process driving chronic kidney disease (CKD) and end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Early diagnosis is essential for timely intervention, yet traditional methods like renal biopsy are invasive and present signif...

Inflammatory, fibrotic and endothelial biomarker profiles in COVID-19 patients during and following hospitalization.

Scientific reports
Survivors of severe COVID-19 often suffer from long-term respiratory issues, but the molecular drivers of this damage remain unclear. This study explored the dynamics of inflammatory, fibrotic, and endothelial biomarkers in hospitalized COVID-19 pati...

Multimodal Optical Imaging Combined with Radiomic Analysis for Fibrotic Cardiac Tissue Investigation.

Analytical chemistry
Understanding the process of fibrotic scarring of the myocardium is critical for the diagnosis and risk stratification of life-threatening cardiac dysfunction. Complex changes in structure, composition, and conductivity occurring at different stages ...

Uncovering key markers and therapeutic targets for renal fibrosis in diabetic kidney disease through bulk and single-cell RNA sequencing.

Journal of translational medicine
BACKGROUND: Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is the major cause of chronic kidney failure, with tubulointerstitial fibrosis playing a crucial role in disease development. Identifying fibrosis-related genes is crucial for improving diagnosis and developi...
