Acute renal failure (ARF) is a clinical challenge that is highly resistant to treatment, and its high rate of mortality is alarming. Ischemia–reperfusion injury (IRI) is the most common cause of ARF. Especially IRI is implicated in kidney transplantation and can determine graft survival. Although the exact pathophysiology of renal IRI is unknown, the role of inflammatory responses has been elucidated. Because mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have strong immunomodulatory properties, they are under extensive investigation as a therapeutic modality for renal IRI. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) play an integral role in cell-to-cell communication. Because the regenerative potential of the MSCs can be recapitulated by their EVs, the therapeutic appeal of MSC-derived EVs has dramatically increased in the past decade. Higher safety profile and ease of preservation without losing function are other advantages of EVs compared with their producing cells. In the current review, the preliminary results and potential of MSC-derived EVs to alleviate kidney IRI are summarized. We might be heading toward a cell-free approach to treat renal IRI. 相似文献

Amputated tissue maintained in a hypothermic environment can endure prolonged ischemia and improve replantation success. The authors hypothesized that local tissue hypothermia during the early reperfusion period may provide a protective effect against ischemia-reperfusion injury similar to that seen when hypothermia is provided during the ischemic period. A rat gracilis muscle flap model was used to assess the protective effects of exposing skeletal muscle to local hypothermia during ischemia only (p = 18), reperfusion only (p = 18), and both ischemia and reperfusion (p = 18). Gracilis muscles were isolated and exposed to hypothermia of 10 degrees C during 4 hours of ischemia, the initial 3 hours of reperfusion, or both periods. Ischemia-reperfusion outcome measures used to evaluate muscle flap injury included muscle viability (percent nitroblue tetrazolium staining), local edema (wet-to-dry weight ratio), neutrophil infiltration (intramuscular neutrophil density per high-power field), neutrophil integrin expression (CD11b mean fluorescence intensity), and neutrophil oxidative potential (dihydro-rhodamine oxidation mean fluorescence intensity) after 24 hours of reperfusion. Nitroblue tetrazolium staining demonstrated improved muscle viability in the experimental groups (ischemia-only: 78.8 +/- 3.5 percent, p < 0.001; reperfusion-only: 80.2 +/- 5.2 percent, p < 0.001; and ischemia-reperfusion: 79.6 +/- 7.6 percent, p < 0.001) when compared with the nonhypothermic control group (50.7 +/- 9.3 percent). The experimental groups demonstrated decreased local muscle edema (4.09 +/- 0.30, 4.10 +/- 0.19, and 4.04 +/- 0.31 wet-to-dry weight ratios, respectively) when compared with the nonhypothermic control group (5.24 +/- 0.31 wet-to-dry weight ratio; p < 0.001, p < 0.001, and p < 0.001, respectively). CD11b expression was significantly decreased in the reperfusion-only (32.65 +/- 8.75 mean fluorescence intensity, p < 0.001) and ischemia-reperfusion groups (25.26 +/- 5.32, p < 0.001) compared with the nonhypothermic control group (62.69 +/- 16.93). There was not a significant decrease in neutrophil CD11b expression in the ischemia-only group (50.72 +/- 11.7 mean fluorescence intensity, p = 0.281). Neutrophil infiltration was significantly decreased in the reperfusion-only (20 +/- 11 counts per high-power field, p = 0.025) and ischemia-reperfusion groups (23 +/- 3 counts, p = 0.041) compared with the nonhypothermic control group (51 +/- 28 counts). No decrease in neutrophil density was observed in the ischemia-only group (40 +/- 15 counts per high-power field, p = 0.672) when compared with the nonhypothermic control group (51 +/- 28 counts). Finally, dihydrorhodamine oxidation was significantly decreased in the reperfusion-only group (45.83 +/- 11.89 mean fluorescence intensity, p = 0.021) and ischemia-reperfusion group (44.30 +/- 11.80, p = 0.018) when compared with the nonhypothermic control group (71.74 +/- 20.83), whereas no decrease in dihydrorhodamine oxidation was observed in the ischemia-only group (65.93 +/- 10.3, p = 0.982). The findings suggest a protective effect of local hypothermia during early reperfusion to skeletal muscle after an ischemic insult. Inhibition of CD11b expression and subsequent neutrophil infiltration and depression of neutrophil oxidative potential may represent independent protective mechanisms isolated to local tissue hypothermia during the early reperfusion period (reperfusion-only and ischemia-reperfusion groups). This study provides evidence for the potential clinical utility of administering local hypothermia to ischemic muscle tissue during the early reperfusion period. 相似文献

North American Caucasian male subjects (n = 59) and female subjects (n = 72) were surveyed, to investigate earlobe height preferences that could serve as guidelines for aesthetic earlobe surgical procedures and reconstructions. Subjects were asked to rank their preferences for variously shaped earlobes in life-size-scaled sketched male and female profiles. Earlobe heights were varied on the basis of previously established anatomical landmarks, including the intertragal notch, the most caudal anterior attachment of the earlobe to the cheek skin (the otobasion inferius), and the most caudal extension of the earlobe-free margin (the subaurale). While the intertragal notch-to-otobasion inferius distance (range, 5 to 20 mm) and otobasion inferius-to-subaurale distance (range, 0 to 20 mm) varied, all other facial and ear anthropometric measurements were held constant. Each of the rank orders for the female and male facial profiles completed by the female and male subjects demonstrated statistical significance, as determined by one-way analysis of variance analysis of ranks (p < 0.001 for all four groups). No difference was noted between the two sexes' rank orders for either sex (p > 0.05). Therefore, analysis of the combined male and female preferences for each sex was completed with one-way analysis of variance analysis of ranks (p < 0.001 and p < 0.001) and a post hoc Dunn's test, to delineate significant preference differences between subgroups with respect to the intertragal notch-to-otobasion inferius and otobasion inferius-to-subaurale distances. Both female and male earlobe intertragal notch-to-otobasion inferius distances were preferred at either 5, 10, or 15 mm, more so than at 20 mm (p < 0.05 for all female and male comparisons). Furthermore, both female and male earlobe otobasion inferius-to-subaurale distances were preferred, in descending order, at 5 mm > 10 mm > 0 mm > 15 mm > 20 mm (p < 0.05 for all female and male comparisons). On the basis of the findings of this survey, the first classification of earlobe ptosis (based on otobasion inferius-to-subaurale distances), as well as a criterion for earlobe pseudoptosis (intertragal notch-to-otobasion inferius distance of greater than 15 mm), is presented. These findings suggest a role for independent assessment of the lobule length with respect to its anteriorly attached cephalad component (intertragal notch-to-otobasion inferius distance) and its free-margin caudal component (otobasion inferius-to-subaurale distance). 相似文献

Background
The Commission on Investing in Health published its report, GlobalHealth2035, in 2013, estimating an investment case for a grand convergence in health outcomes globally. In support of the drafting of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), we estimate what the grand convergence investment case might achieve—and what investment would be required—by 2030.Methods and Findings
Our projection focuses on a sub-set of low-income (LIC) or lower-middle-income countries (LMIC). We start with a country-based (bottom-up) analysis of the costs and impact of scaling up reproductive, maternal, and child health tools, and select HIV and malaria interventions. We then incorporate global (top-down) analyses of the costs and impacts of scaling up existing tools for tuberculosis, additional HIV interventions, the costs to strengthen health systems, and the costs and benefits from scaling up new health interventions over the time horizon of this forecast. These data are then allocated to individual countries to provide an aggregate projection of potential cost and impact at the country level. Finally, incremental costs of R&D for low-income economies and the costs of addressing NTDs are added to provide a global total cost estimate of the investment scenario.Results
Compared with a constant coverage scenario, there would be more than 60 million deaths averted in LIC and 70 million deaths averted in LMIC between 2016 and 2030. For the years 2015, 2020, 2025, and 2030, the incremental costs of convergence in LIC would be (US billion) $24.3, $21.8, $24.7, and $27, respectively; in LMIC, the incremental costs would be (US billion) $34.75, $38.9, $48.7, and $56.3, respectively.Conclusion
Key health outcomes in low- and low-middle income countries can significantly converge with those of wealthier countries by 2030, and the notion of a “grand convergence” may serve as a unifying theme for health indicators in the SDGs. 相似文献9.
In the present study, rat primary cultures were used to study the effect of lactate on the survival of hippocampal neurons in the presence or absence of glucose. Our results showed no extensive cell damage under glucose‐free conditions compared with glucose‐rich conditions. Addition of 10 and 50 mM lactate to glucose‐free and glucose‐rich media increased the cell damage significantly, as observed by morphology and lactate dehydrogenase activity. The results of the present study suggest that primary neurons in vitro are not sensitive to glucose deficiency and the presence of lactate damages the neurons in a concentration‐dependent manner. 相似文献
