Risedronate sodium (RS) is a potent nitrogen-containing bisphosphonate which is known to induce osteoclast apoptosis. As a drug repurposing approach, the current work explored the potential of nebulizable RS-chitosan (CS) microspheres to induce alveolar macrophage apoptosis. RS-CS microspheres were assessed for lung deposition, cytotoxicity, and cellular uptake percentage in Calu-3 cells. The potential of nebulizable microspheres for treating elastase-induced emphysema in rats was investigated, compared to RS marketed oral tablets®, with respect to histopathological, immunohistochemical, and flow cytometric studies. The in vitro lung deposition pattern suggested deep alveolar deposition of RS microspheres, with respect to high FPF% and suitable MMAD (66% and 1.506 μm, respectively, at a flow rate of 28.3 L min-1). No apparent cytotoxicity was observed, with a cell viability &gt; 90%. The inhalation of RS-CS microspheres was suggested to inhibit airspace enlargement and lung rarefaction after elastase instillation and reduce the macrophage accumulation in alveolar parenchyma. Immunohistochemical and cytometric analyses revealed significant low expression levels of CD68 and CD11b surface markers, respectively, with significantly (P less then 0.05) lower detected numbers of intact alveolar macrophages following inhalation of RS-CS microspheres. The nebulization of RS-CS microspheres could induce apoptosis in alveolar macrophages and be promisingly adopted for attenuation of pulmonary emphysema.<br /><br /> Endovascular revascularization (ER) and open revascularization (OR) are recognized treatment modalities for peripheral artery disease, but whether one technique provides better outcomes than the other is unclear, especially in patients with chronic or end-stage renal disease.<br /><br /> We conducted a systematic literature search on the PubMed, Scopus, and Google scholar databases. We considered randomized-controlled trials, and retrospective record-based and prospective studies for inclusion. All included studies compared patient outcomes between the two management modalities and reported adjusted effect sizes.<br /><br /> We found the risks of in-hospital mortality (OR 0.52; 95% CI 0.30-0.92) and 30-day mortality (OR 0.63; 95% CI 0.49-0.80) during the post-operative period to be significantly lower in patients undergoing ER than in those undergoing OR. The pooled odds of amputation within 30days of the post-operative period suggested a significantly higher risk of amputation in patients undergoing ER (OR 1.51; 95% CI 1.32-1.73) than in the others. Compared to patients undergoing OR, those undergoing ER had higher odds of being discharged to home (OR 2.30; 95% CI 1.58-3.36), lower odds of wound complications within 24months of the post-operative period (OR 0.34; 95% CI 0.15-0.79), and a reduced length of hospital stay (WMD - 5.9; 95% CI - 10.8 to - 1.00).<br /><br /> For elderly patients with ESRD and chronic limb ischemia, ER may be the best choice due to its lower risk of mortality, lower odds of wound complications, reduced length of hospital stay, and reduced risk of re-intervention requirement when compared to OR. However, OR should be considered as an option when limb salvage is preferred.<br /><br />For elderly patients with ESRD and chronic limb ischemia, ER may be the best choice due to its lower risk of mortality, lower odds of wound complications, reduced length of hospital stay, and reduced risk of re-intervention requirement when compared to OR.

Here, we studied the mechanism of miR-122 in regulating intestinal barrier function in AP. AP rat model was constructed via intraperitoneal injection of ketamine, and primary intestinal epithelial cells were isolated from rats for in vitro studies. [https://www.selleckchem.com/products/dihydroethidium.html Dihydroethidium mouse] HE staining was used to assess pathological alterations of pancreas and intestines tissues. Inflammatory factors were detected by ELISA assay. qRT-PCR and WB were used to detect the expressions of miR-122 and occluding, respectively. Then dual-luciferase reporter assay, intestinal permeability test, and cell permeability were performed in vivo and in vitro to probe the molecular mechanism of miR-122 in regulating intestinal barrier function in AP. The expression of miR-122 was upregulated in AP rats, while the expression of occludin was downregulated, and the intestinal permeability was increased in AP rats and primary intestinal epithelial cells isolated from rats. Inhibition of miR-122 regulated intestinal barrier function through mediating occludin expression. miR-122 regulated intestinal barrier function to affect AP through mediating occludin expression in vivo. These results provided evidence that miR-122 overexpression impaired intestinal barrier function via regulation of occludin expression, thus promoting AP progression.Magnetic covalent organic framework nanocomposite denoted as Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp with core-shell structure was fabricated via a simple template-mediated precipitation polymerization method at mild conditions. The polyimine network shell was created through the polymerization of 1,3,5-tris(4-aminophenyl)-benzene (TAPB) and 1,3,5-triformyl-phloroglucinol (Tp) in tetrahydrofuran (THF) by the Schiff-base reaction. Featuring with large specific surface area (163.19 m2 g-1), good solution dispersibility, and high stability, the obtained Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp exhibited high adsorption capacities and fast adsorption for zearalenone and its derivatives (ZEAs). The adsorption isotherms showed multilayer adsorption dominated at low concentration and monolayer adsorption at high concentration between the interface of ZEAs and Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp. With the Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp as sorbent, a magnetic solid-phase extraction-ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) method was established for simultaneous adsorption and detection of five ZEAs in complex samples. The proposed method displayed favorable linearity, low limits of detection (0.003 ~ 0.018 μg kg-1), and good repeatability (2.37~10.4%). The developed method has been applied for real sample analysis, with recoveries of 81.27~90.26%. These results showed that Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp has a good application potential for the adsorption of ZEAs in food samples. Magnetic covalent organic framework nanocomposite (Fe3O4@TAPB-Tp) were quickly fabricated at mild conditions and used as effective adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction of zearalenone and its derivatives (ZEAs) from food samples prior to ultrahigh performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) analysis.
