As nanotechnology advances, metal oxide nanoparticles (MeONPs) increasingly come into contact with humans. The inhaled MeONPs cannot be effectively cleared by cilia or lung mucus. In the last decade, potential immune toxicity arising from exposure to...
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a severe vascular condition, marked by the progressive dilation of the abdominal aorta, leading to rupture if untreated. The objective of this study was to identify key biomarkers and decipher the immune mechanisms ...
Patients with advanced idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), a complex and incurable lung disease with an elusive pathology, are nearly exclusive candidates for lung transplantation. Improved identification of patient subtypes can enhance early diagno...
One of the key tissue movements driving closure of a wound is re-epithelialisation. Earlier wound healing studies describe the dynamic cell behaviours that contribute to wound re-epithelialisation, including cell division, cell shape changes and cell...
Inflammatory responses, leading to fibrosis and potential host rejection, significantly hinder the long-term success and widespread adoption of biomedical implants. The ability to control and investigated macrophage inflammatory responses at the impl...
BACKGROUND: Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is a severe stroke subtype with high morbidity, disability, and mortality rates. Currently, no biomarkers for ICH are available for use in clinical practice. We aimed to explore the roles of RNAs in ICH path...

The Leishmania life cycle alternates between promastigotes, found in the sandfly, and amastigotes, found in mammals. When an infected sandfly bites a host, promastigotes are engulfed by phagocytes (i.e., neutrophils, dendritic cells, and macrophages)...
Macrophages played an important role in the progression and treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). We employed weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA) to identify macrophage-related genes (MRGs) and classify patients...
Spectral fingerprinting has emerged as a powerful tool that is adept at identifying chemical compounds and deciphering complex interactions within cells and engineered nanomaterials. Using near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence spectral fingerprinting coup...
BACKGROUND: Although there has been some progress in the treatment of primary uveal melanoma (UVM), distant metastasis remains the leading cause of death in patients. Monitoring, staging, and treatment of metastatic disease have not yet reached conse...
