Increasing evidence indicates close interaction between immune cells and the brain,
revising the traditional view of the immune privilege of the brain. However, the specific …

Functionalized hemodialysis membranes have been employed to suppress oxidative stress
for hemodialysis therapy. However, the inhibition effects of the hemodialysis on the harmful …

This study aimed to investigate the impact of abdominal aortic occlusion (AAO)-induced
injury on the kidney, lower limb muscles, heart, and brain in mice, and the potential …

Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH), a component of sleep apnea-hypopnea syndrome, is
suggested to cause damage to lung tissue, and the role of glutamate is not well studied. We …

Background. Abdominal aortic occlusion (AAO) occurs frequently and causes
ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury to distant organs. In this study, we aimed to investigate …

Objective Ischemia–reperfusion of the abdominal aorta often results in damage to distant
organs, such as the heart and brain. This cellular heterogeneity within affected tissues …

Background The aim of this study was to examine the effects on the lungs of
ischemia/reperfusion injury in a ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm model in rats and to …

Background The association between genetic variants on the X chromosome to risk of
COPD has not been fully explored. We hypothesize that the X chromosome harbors variants …

ABSTRACT Objective: Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) of the aorta is a significant contributor to the
development of postoperative acute lung damage after abdominal aortic surgery. The aim of …

Background: Styrene (ST) has been used for plastic and resin production. It was reported to
induce injury of pulmonary tissues. Thymosin β4 (Tβ4), a naturally expressed protein, was …
