Autotherapies: Enhancing Our Innate Healing Capacity
Autotherapies are treatments based on the body ’ s natural ability to heal and protect itself. For example, immunotherapy harnesses the body ’ s immune cells to fight cancer and is now in clinical use. In the dental, oral, and craniofacial region, autotherapies could be used to selectively signal the body to repair and regenerate tissue, trigger immune responses, and restore a natural microbial balance. These strategies might also help to heal damaged or diseased tissues in other parts of the body, prevent or treat infections, fight cancer, treat autoimmune conditions, and enhance overall health.
Advancing the developm...

The Procedural Pause: Weird and Wild: Taming the Tattoo
Martha Roberts, ACNP, PNP, and James R. Roberts, MD, ask, what do you do when something weird and wild comes into your emergency department? This month, they we mean lacerations over tattoos or body piercings. Cosmetic repair of injuries involving tattoos and piercings are important to patients, and here’s how you can ensure proper wound closure while preserving the underlying body art.

Systemic immunity protects the mind: Can immune checkpoint blockade combat Alzheimer ’ s disease?
NIH Director's Wednesday Afternoon Lecture
It is now widely accepted that immune surveillance is required for supporting brain functional plasticity and repair. Participating cells include the microglia, the resident myeloid immune cells of the brain, circulating monocytes, and CD4+ T cells. Over the years, we demonstrated that leukocytes supporting the brain can gain access to the brain through a unique compartment within the brain territory, the chroid plexus epithelium (CP) at the blood-cerebrospinal fluid-barrier (B-CSF-B), remote from the brain parenchyma. The CP serves as a selective gateway allowing leukocyte entry ...

Hematopoietic Stem Cells Aging – Mechanisms, Consequences and Interventions
The Trans-NIH GeroScience Interest Group (GSIG), cordially invites you to its summer seminar, featuring Dr. Emmanuelle Passegu é . Dr. Passegue is a Professor in the Department of Genetics and Development at the Columbia University Medical Center and Director of the Columbia Stem Cell Initiative (CSCI) in New York. She is widely recognized for her expertise on hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) biology. Her research over the past 10-years has focused on understanding the cellular and molecular processes controlling HSC activity during homeostasis, and addressing how these regulations are changed in myeloid malignancies and phy...
