Shared decision-making (SDM) and multidisciplinary team-based care delivery are recommended across several cardiology clinical practice guidelines. However, evidence for benefit and guidance on implementation are limited. Informed consent, the use of patient decision aids, or the documentation of these elements for governmental or societal agencies may be conflated as SDM. SDM is a bidirectional exchange between experts: patients are the experts on their goals, values, and preferences, and clinicians provide their expertise on clinical factors. In this Expert Panel perspective, we review the current state of SDM in team-based cardiovascular care and propose best practice recommendations for multidisciplinary team implementation …

BACKGROUND/AIMS: The global proportion of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) attributable to metabolic dysfunction-associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) is unclear. The MAFLD diagnostic criteria allows objective diagnosis in the presence of steatosis plus defined markers of metabolic dysfunction, irrespective of concurrent liver disease. We aimed to determine the total global prevalence of MAFLD in HCC cohorts (total-MAFLD), including the proportion with MAFLD as their sole liver disease (single-MAFLD), and the proportion of those with concurrent liver disease where MAFLD was a contributary factor (mixed-MAFLD).

METHODS: This systematic review and meta-analysis included studies systematically ascertaining MAFLD in HCC cohorts, defined using international expert …

Inhibition Of Cathepsin S In Autoimmune Cd25ko Mouse Improves Sjögren Disease-Like Lacrimal Gland Pathology, Kaitlin K Scholand, Jeremias Galletti, Wolfgang Haap, Tiago Santos-Ferreira, Christoph Ullmer, Cintia S De Paiva

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

PURPOSE: CD25KO mice are a model of Sjögren disease (SjD) driven by autoreactive T cells. Cathepsin S (CTSS) is a protease crucial for major histocompatibility complex class II presentation that primes T cells. We investigated if a diet containing CTSS inhibitor would improve autoimmune signs in CD25KO mice.

METHODS: Four-week female CD25KO mice were randomly chosen to receive chow containing a CTSS inhibitor (R05461111, 262.5 mg/kg chow) or standard chow for 4 weeks. Cornea sensitivity was measured. Inflammatory score was assessed in lacrimal gland (LG) histologic sections. Flow cytometry of LG and ocular draining lymph nodes (dLNs) investigated expression of …

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Microbiomes have emerged as a key component essential for maintaining the health of an organism. Additionally, the roles of microbiomes are multifaceted, some unique to specific body areas and organs while others, particularly the gut microbiome, having broader effects on the entire organism. Comparative literature is emerging that compares microbiomes across mammals and birds. Domestic poultry have been the most extensively studied relative to their role in production agriculture. These data have provided a great deal of information about the effects of diet and nutritional requirements relative to the gut microbiome, productivity, and resilience to diseases. Conversely, limited research has …

Aging Atlas Reveals Cell-Type-Specific Effects Of Pro-Longevity Strategies, Shihong Max Gao, Yanyan Qi, Qinghao Zhang, Youchen Guan, Yi-Tang Lee, Lang Ding, Lihua Wang, Aaron S Mohammed, Hongjie Li, Yusi Fu, Meng C Wang

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Organismal aging involves functional declines in both somatic and reproductive tissues. Multiple strategies have been discovered to extend lifespan across species. However, how age-related molecular changes differ among various tissues and how those lifespan-extending strategies slow tissue aging in distinct manners remain unclear. Here we generated the transcriptomic Cell Atlas of Worm Aging (CAWA, http://mengwanglab.org/atlas ) of wild-type and long-lived strains. We discovered cell-specific, age-related molecular and functional signatures across all somatic and germ cell types. We developed transcriptomic aging clocks for different tissues and quantitatively determined how three different pro-longevity strategies slow tissue aging distinctively. Furthermore, through genome-wide profiling …

A Klf2-Bmper-Smad1/5 Checkpoint Regulates High Fluid Shear Stress-Mediated Artery Remodeling, Hanqiang Deng, Jiasheng Zhang, Yewei Wang, Divyesh Joshi, Xinchun Pi, Sarah De Val, Martin A Schwartz

Faculty, Staff and Students Publications

Vascular remodeling to match arterial diameter to tissue requirements commonly fails in ischemic disease. Endothelial cells sense fluid shear stress (FSS) from blood flow to maintain FSS within a narrow range in healthy vessels. Thus, high FSS induces vessel outward remodeling, but mechanisms are poorly understood. We previously reported that Smad1/5 is maximally activated at physiological FSS. Smad1/5 limits Akt activation, suggesting that inhibiting Smad1/5 may facilitate outward remodeling. Here we report that high FSS suppresses Smad1/5 by elevating KLF2, which induces the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) pathway inhibitor, BMP-binding endothelial regulator (BMPER), thereby de-inhibiting Akt. In mice, surgically induced …

Most viral infections can be self-limited, with no requirement for medical intervention. However, the same viruses can cause severe diseases in patients with compromised immunity due to single-gene diseases, acquired immune deficiency syndrome, or hematologic malignancies or those receiving immunosuppressive drugs. Occasionally, these immunocompromised patients harbor >1 infectious agent, requiring several concomitant diagnostic tests. We have developed, to our knowledge, a previously unreported whole-transcriptome sequencing-based pipeline that allows virome profiling, quantitation, and expression pattern analysis of 926 distinct viruses by sequencing of RNA isolated from a single lesional skin biopsy. This pipeline can also explore host genetics if there is …

Genome-wide association studies of human personality have been carried out, but transcription of the whole genome has not been studied in relation to personality in humans. We collected genome-wide expression profiles of adults to characterize the regulation of expression and function in genes related to human personality. We devised an innovative multi-omic approach to network analysis to identify the key control elements and interactions in multi-modular networks. We identified sets of transcribed genes that were co-expressed in specific brain regions with genes known to be associated with personality. Then we identified the minimum networks for the co-localized genes using bioinformatic …

Facial Skin Rejuvenation With Poly-L-Lactic Acid (Plla): Four Case Studies, Stanley Setiawan, Theressia Handayani, Stefani Luziani

Journal of General - Procedural Dermatology and Venereology Indonesia

Background: Facial aging is characterized by the decline and loss of skin structure. Poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) is a biopolymer and biodegradable injection material that functions as a collagen stimulator. This active ingredient works by stimulating the formation of skin collagen after interacting with the PLLA crystal component. The expected final result is an increase in the skin volume with the thickening and increased density of the skin layers due to collagen remodeling. At present, data on the application of PLLA for facial photorejuvenation remains limited.

Case Illustration: Four patients aged 22-49 years old, with different severity of aging, underwent PLLA …

Proteoglycans Of Basement Membranes: Crucial Controllers Of Angiogenesis, Neurogenesis, And Autophagy, Maurizio Mongiat, Gabriel Pascal, Evelina Poletto, Davion M. Williams, Renato V. Iozzo

Department of Pathology, Anatomy, and Cell Biology Faculty Papers

Anti-angiogenic therapy is an established method for the treatment of several cancers and vascular-related diseases. Most of the agents employed target the vascular endothelial growth factor A, the major cytokine stimulating angiogenesis. However, the efficacy of these treatments is limited by the onset of drug resistance. Therefore, it is of fundamental importance to better understand the mechanisms that regulate angiogenesis and the microenvironmental cues that play significant role and influence patient treatment and outcome. In this context, here we review the importance of the three basement membrane heparan sulfate proteoglycans (HSPGs), namely perlecan, agrin and collagen XVIII. These HSPGs are …
