Polyphasic characterization and genomic insights into Nocardioides turkmenicus sp. nov. isolated from a desert soil
Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek. 2024 Jan 23;117(1):25. doi: 10.1007/s10482-023-01920-2.ABSTRACTStrain KC13T, a novel desert-adapted, non-motile, Gram-stain-positive, rod-shaped, aerobic bacterium, was isolated from a soil sample collected from the Karakum Desert, Turkmenistan and characterised by a polyphasic approach. Phylogenetic analysis based on 16S rRNA sequences revealed that strain KC13T was a member of the genus Nocardioides, and formed a distinct cluster with Nocardioides luteus DSM 43366T (99.3% sequence identity), Nocardioides albus DSM 43109T (98.9%), Nocardioides panzhihuensis DSM 26487T (98.3%) and Nocardioides albe...

Assessment of microcirculatory alteration by a vascular occlusion test using near-infrared spectroscopy in pediatric cardiac surgery: effect of cardiopulmonary bypass
CONCLUSION: Microcirculatory function can assessed using VOT with forearm Near-infrared spectroscopy derived variables during cardiopulmonary bypass in pediatric cardiac surgery. Noninvasive assessment of microcirculatory perfusion during cardiopulmonary bypass can further help evaluate and improve circulatory support techniques.TRIAL REGISTRATION: The research Project was registered at ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT06191913).PMID:38217402 | DOI:10.1080/17434440.2024.2306155 (Source: Expert Review of Medical Devices)

Arteriovenous malformation presenting as a lip swelling
Key Clinical MessageArteriovenous malformations (AVM) are extremely rare on the face and especially on the lip. Lip can be more easily exposed to traumas due to their anatomical location. Especially superficial AV malformations are very susceptible to trauma and can bleed very seriously after being exposed to such effects. AVMs management generally based on their hemodynamic characteristics and growth modalities. The surgical treatment requires elaborate planning and multidisciplinary approach. When evaluating a mass with a clinical manifestation of lip swelling, ruling out a vascular anomaly before any intervention is als...

Evaluation of the therapeutic effects of arbutin on cisplatin-induced ovarian toxicity in rats through endoplasmic reticulum stress and Nrf2 pathway
This study aimed to evaluate the therapeutic effect of ARB against CP-related ovototoxicity by including nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway in rats for the first time. Rats treated one dose of CP (5 mg/kg) on the first day, followed by ARB (5 and 10 mg/kg) for three days. Serum reproductive hormone levels were determined using ELISA kits. Oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and apoptosis markers in ovarian tissue were also determined colorimetrically. In addition, how CP affects Nrf2 pathway and the effect of ARB on this situation were also addressed. ARB treatmen...

Gentisic acid ameliorates cisplatin-induced reprotoxicity through suppressing endoplasmic reticulum stress and upregulating Nrf2 pathway
Tissue Cell. 2023 Oct 24;85:102256. doi: 10.1016/j.tice.2023.102256. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTReproductive toxicity is a serious side effect of cisplatin (CP) chemotherapy. Gentisic acid (GTA) is a phenolic acid with strong antioxidant properties. Here, we aimed to determine therapeutic effect of GTA against CP-induced testicular toxicity in rats for the first time. Male Sprague-Dawley rats received a single dose of CP (5 mg/kg; intraperitoneal) and treated with GTA (1.5 and 3 mg/kg; intraperitoneal; 3 consecutive days). The levels of oxidative stress (OS), inflammation, endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS) and apoptosi...
