Abstract

Nutritional status is a sensitive indicator of health. There is not a single parameter that serve as the only and best parameter to evaluate malnourished patients or patients with risk for malnutrition. Patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma were a focus of concern for nutritional impairment. Nutritional impairment is a common phenomenon among the patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma. But it is often ignored in treatments and follow-up care. The objective of the study was to assess relationship between lymphocyte and wound dehiscence of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma. Sixty oral squamous cell carcinoma patients were histologically confirmed. This study was descriptive and cross-sectional study. All patients were studied and followed until discharge from hospital. Surgery of primary lesion with neck dissection were performed for all patients under general anesthesia. The mean age was 47.6 ± 10.8 years in group I, 49.7 ± 8.6 years in group II. Regarding the total lymphocyte count of the patients, it was found that 32 (65.3%) patients had normal nutrition in group I and 5 (45.5%) moderate malnutrition in group I. The mean total lymphocyte count was found 1020.0 ± 819.1 mm3 in group I, 1736.0 ± 474.8 mm3 in group II. The mean total lymphocyte count was statistically significant (p<0.05) between the two groups.

How to improve the regenerative potential of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) for the use in regenerative medicine?

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are widely used in regenerative medicine. They can be isolated from different adult tissues. However, the regenerative potential of MSCs obtained from various sources and from different age donors may significantly differ.

Role of the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current in human induced pluripotent stem cells derived cardiomyocytes

The action potential (AP) in cardiac tissue is important for initiating and coordinating contractions in the heart. In addition, the long refractory period minimizes the potential for developing extrasystoles and arrhythmias. The AP is generated by coordinate changes in different ionic currents. In human (or canine) adult ventricular cells, the depolarization phase of the AP is mainly through the influx of Na+ and Ca2+ through specific voltage gated channels.

Drosophila male germline stem cells and their transit amplifying daughters depend on G-protein signaling for increasing their mitotic indices in response to mating

In many metazoan tissues, highly specialized cells are constantly lost and need to be replaced by tissue homeostasis from adult stem cells. When adult stem cells divide by mitosis their daughter cells either become new stem cells, or enter a proliferation and differentiation path. Recent studies in Drosophila males showed that germline stem cells (GSCs) can increase their mitotic activity in response to repeated mating.

Further comments on the single-cell protein ingredient manufactured from a non-GMO Corynebacterium glutamicum as an alternative protein nutrition

In the previous study, Park et al. reported the efficacy of a single-cell protein manufactured from a growth-accelerated high-vital Corynebacterium glutamicum strain and potential strain selection strategy for development of non-GMO industrial strains harboring enriched target nutritional component, named as growth?acceleration?targeted evolution (G.A.T.E.) strategy [1]. 

Research update on the state of the evidence for stem cell and regenerative medicine in cerebral palsy

Stem cell therapy for the treatment of cerebral palsy is a rapidly expanding area of research that has been identified as a high priority by consumers. There are several types and sources of stem cell therapies under investigation. Stem cell treatments proposed for cerebral palsy are believed to provide benefit via some or all of the following mechanisms including immunomodulation, paracrine signaling and supporting endogenous reparative processes.
