Research
Background: Management of skeletal Class III malocclusion of maxillary origin in late adolescence remains challenging, as conventional tooth-borne orthopedic approaches show reduced effectiveness at advanced stages of skeletal maturation.
source →We constructed a multi-layer composite magnetic shield composed of Fe-based nanocrystalline (FN) and Co-based amorphous (CA) ribbons, and focused on the influence of the number of layers and their arrangement on the shielding effectiveness (SE).
source →Background Peptide therapeutics represent an emerging frontier in gerontological medicine, targeting fundamental hallmarks of aging including metabolic dysfunction, telomere attrition, tissue repair impairment, and hormonal decline.
source →Objective The study evaluated the effect of combined physiotherapeutic treatment (CPT) on changes in functional retinal parameters after endovitreal surgery of rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) with a favorable anatomical outcome.
source →Therapeutic peptides are short chains of amino acids used to treat metabolic and endocrine conditions such as obesity and type 2 diabetes.
source →Therapeutic peptides are emerging as promising adjuncts in the management of orthopaedic injuries, grounded in their ability to modulate molecular signaling networks central to cellular medicine.
source →Alzheimer's disease, first described over a century ago, is currently among the most common neurodegenerative diseases whose significance is increasingly growing with the aging of populations.
source →Background and purpose Lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) is exacerbated following spinal cord injury (SCI), leading to increased neuronal cell death. Ubiquitination may affect LMP by regulating the stability and functionality of lysosomal membranes.
source →We studied the effects of Semax on spontaneous fluctuations of intracellular calcium ion concentration [Ca 2+ ] i in pyramidal neurons on hippocampal slices and on proton-induced increase in [Ca 2+ ] i in cerebellar granule cells in cerebellar slices.
source →Alzheimer's disease (AD) is the most common neurodegenerative disorder associated with cognitive decline and loss of memory.
source →In the treatment of ischemic stroke, an innovative approach is the use of neuroprotective compounds. Natural peptides, including adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH), can serve as the basis for such drugs.
source →Background: Ischemic stroke results from a disruption of cerebral blood flow. Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) serves as the basis for the creation of synthetic peptides as neuroprotective agents for stroke therapy.
