| 1 | An overview of animal models for investigating the pathogenesis and therapeutic strategies in acute hepatic failure显示文摘Acute hepatic failure (AHF) is a severe liver injury accompanied by hepatic encephalopathy which causes multiorgan failure with an extremely high mortality rate, even if intensive care is provided. Management of severe AHF continues to be one of the most challenging problems in clinical medicine. Liver transplantation has been shown to be the most effective therapy, but the procedure is limited by shortage of donor organs. Although a number of clinical trials testing different liver assist devices are under way, these systems alone have no significant effect on patient survival and are only regarded as a useful approach to bridge patients with AHF to liver transplantation. As a result, reproducible experimental animal models resembling the clinical conditions are still needed. The three main approaches used to create an animal model for AHF are: surgical procedures, toxic liver injury and infective procedures. Most common models are based on surgical techniques (total/partial hepatectomy, complete/transient devascularization) or the use of hepatotoxic drugs (acetaminophen, galactosamine, thioacetamide, and others), and very few satisfactory viral models are available. We have recently developed a viral model of AHF by means of the inoculation of rabbits with the virus of rabbit hemorrhagic disease. This model displays biochemical and histological characteristics, and clinical features that resemble those in human AHF. In the present article an overview is given of the most widely used animal models of AHF, and their main advantages and disadvantages are reviewed. | María Jesús Tuón Marcelino Alvarez Jesús M Culebras Javier González-Gallego | 2009 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2009,15,25: | 29 |
| 2 | Advances in immunotherapy for treatment of lung cancer显示文摘Different approaches for treating lung cancer have been developed over time, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapies against activating mutations. Lately, better understanding of the role of the immunological system in tumor control has opened multiple doors to implement different strategies to enhance immune response against cancer cells. It is known that tumor cells elude immune response by several mechanisms. The development of monoclonal antibodies against the checkpoint inhibitor programmed cell death protein 1(PD-1) and its ligand(PD-L1), on T cells, has led to high activity in cancer patients with long lasting responses. Nivolumab, an anti PD-1 inhibitor, has been recently approved for the treatment of squamous cell lung cancer patients, given the survival advantage demonstrated in a phase III trial. Pembrolizumab, another anti PD-1 antibody, has received FDA breakthrough therapy designation for treatment of non-small cell lung cancer(NSCLC), supported by data from a phase I trial. Clinical trials with anti PD-1/PD-L1 antibodies in NSCLC have demonstrated very good tolerability and activity, with response rates around 20% and a median duration of response of 18 months. | Jean G.Bustamante Alvarez María González-Cao Niki Karachaliou Mariacarmela Santarpia Santiago Viteri Cristina Teixidó Rafael Rosell | 2015 | Cancer Biology & Medicine2015,12,3: | 22 |
| 3 | Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction in the elderly: pathophysiology, diagnostic and therapeutic approach显示文摘Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction(HFpEF)is a clinical syndrome characterized by symptoms and sings of heart failure with elevated left ventricular filling pressures at rest or during exercise.It is the most common type of heart failure in the elderly and its prevalence increases with age and is higher in females at any given age.HFpEF is frequently accompanied of comorbid conditions such as diabetes mellitus,obesity,atrial fibrillation and renal dysfunction.The diagnosis relies in the integration of clinical information,laboratory data and interpretation of cardiac imaging and hemodynamic findings at rest and during exercise.Conditions that have a specific treatment such as coronary artery disease,valvular disease,cardiac amyloidosis and constrictive pericarditis should be considered and evaluated as appropriate.Aggressive management of comorbidities,optimization of blood pressure control and volume status using diuretics as needed are among the current treatment recommendations.There are no specific therapies that have shown to decrease mortality in HFpEF.In symptomatic patients with history of hospital admission for decompensated heart failure,the implantation of a wireless pulmonary artery pressure monitor should be considered.Finally,given the high mortality of this condition,goals of care discussion should be initiated early and involvement of palliative care medicine should be considered. | Ernesto Ruiz Duque Alexandros Briasoulis Paulino A Alvarez | 2019 | Journal of Geriatric Cardiology2019,16,5: | 13 |
| 4 | Parenchymal-sparing liver surgery in patients with colorectal carcinoma liver metastases显示文摘Liver resection is the treatment of choice for patients with colorectal liver metastases(CLM).However,major resections are often required to achieve R0 resection,which are associated with substantial rates of morbidity and mortality.Maximizing the amount of residual liver gained increasing significance in modern liver surgery due to the high incidence of chemotherapyassociated parenchymal injury.This fact,along with the progressive expansion of resectability criteria,has led to the development of a surgical philosophy known as 'parenchymal-sparing liver surgery'(PSLS).This philosophy includes a variety of resection strategies,either performed alone or in combination with ablative therapies.A profound knowledge of liver anatomy and expert intraoperative ultrasound skills are required to perform PSLS appropriately and safely.There is a clear trend toward PSLS in hepatobiliary centers worldwide as current evidence indicates that tumor biology is the most important predictor of intrahepatic recurrence and survival,rather than the extent of a negative resection margin.Tumor removal avoiding the unnecessary sacrifice of functional parenchyma has been associated with less surgical stress,fewer postoperative complications,uncompromised cancer-related outcomes and higher feasibility of future resections.The increasing evidence supporting PSLS prompts its consideration as the gold-standard surgical approach for CLM. | Fernando A Alvarez Rodrigo Sanchez Claria Sebastian Oggero Eduardo de Santibanes | 2016 | World Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery2016,8,6: | 8 |
| 5 | Specific and cross-reactive immune response against Mycobacterium tuberculosis antigens in mice immunized with proteoliposomes from Mycobacterium bovis BCG显示文摘Objective: To characterize the immunogenicity and the induction of cross-reactive responses against Mycobacterium tuberculosis(M. tuberculosis) of a proteoliposome(PL)from Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette–Guerin(BCG) with and without alum hydroxide(AL) as adjuvant(PLBCG-AL and PLBCG, respectively) in BALB/c mice.Methods: BALB/c mice were inoculated with phosphate buffer solution, BCG, PLBCG and PLBCG-AL. The humoral immunogenicity was determined by ELISA [immunoglobulin G(Ig G), Ig G1 and Ig G2a] and the cellular immunogenicity was evaluated in vivo by delayed type hypersensitivity. The humoral cross-reactive response against M. tuberculosis was determined by Western blot.Results: Sera from animals immunized with PLBCG-AL and PLBCG showed significant increase in specific total Ig G and Ig G1 antibodies and the presence of cross-reactive antibodies against M. tuberculosis antigens, which were more intense with the use of alum as adjuvant. Mice immunized with PLBCG and PLBCG-AL also showed a specific cellular response in vivo.Conclusions: The cellular and humoral immunogenicity of PLBCG and the capacity to induce cross-reactive responses against M. tuberculosis is in agreement with the protective capacity previously demonstrated by this vaccine candidate and supports the continuation of its evaluation in further stages. | Nadine Alvarez DaymíSerpa Ramlah Kadir Yanely Tirado Reinier Borrero Sonsire Fernández Rubén Cabrera Yolanda Valdes Caridad Zayas Reinaldo Acevedo Luis Izquierdo María Elena Sarmiento Mohd-Nor Norazmi JoséLuis Pérez Armando Acosta | 2017 | Asian Pacific Journal of Tropical Biomedicine2017,7,3: | 3 |
| 6 | Differing profiles of people diagnosed with acute and chronic hepatitis B virus infection in British Columbia,Canada显示文摘AIM To describe the characteristics of people diagnosed with acute and chronic hepatitis B virus(HBV) infection in British Columbia(BC).METHODS We used data from the BC Hepatitis Testers Cohort(BCHTC),which includes all individuals tested for hepatitis C virus(HCV) or human immunodeficiency virus(HIV) or those diagnosed with HBV or active tuberculosis in BC since 1990.These data were integrated with prescription drug,medical visit,hospitalization and mortality data.HBV cases were classified as acute or chronic according to provincial guidelines.We compared characteristics of individuals by HBV infection group(acute,chronic and negative).Factors associated with acute or chronic HBV infection were assessed with multinomial logistic regression models in comparison to the HBV negative group.RESULTS46498 of the 1058056 eligible BC-HTC participants were diagnosed with HBV infection.4.3% of HBV positive individuals were diagnosed with acute HBV infections while 95.7% had chronic infections.Problematic alcohol use,injection drug use,and HIV or HCV co-infection were more common among individuals diagnosed with acute HBV compared to those with chronic infections and HBV negative individuals.In multivariable multinomial logistic regression models,we observed significant associations between acute or chronic HBV diagnosis and being male,age at HBV diagnosis or birth cohort,South and East Asian ethnicity,HCV or HIV infection,and injection drug use.The odds of acute HBV decreased with increasing age among people who inject drugs,while the opposite was true for chronic HBV.Persons with acute HBV were predominantly White(78%) while those with chronic HBV were mostly East Asian(60%).Relative to Whites,East Asians had 12 times greater odds of being diagnosed with chronic HBV infection.These odds increased with increasing socioeconomic deprivation.CONCLUSION Differences in the profiles of people diagnosed with acute and chronic HBV infection necessitate differentiated screening,prevention,care and treatment programs. | Mawuena Binka Zahid A Butt Stanley Wong Mei Chong Jane A Buxton Nuria Chapinal Amanda Yu Maria Alvarez Maryam Darvishian Jason Wong Gina McGowan Mikhail Torban Mark Gilbert Mark Tyndall Mel Krajden Naveed Z Janjua | 2018 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2018,24,11: | 3 |
| 7 | An elastin-like recombinamer-based bioactive hydrogel embedded with mesenchymal stromal cells as an injectable scaffold for osteochondral repair显示文摘The aim of this study was to evaluate injectable,in situ cross-linkable elastin-like recombinamers(ELRs)for osteochondral repair.Both the ELR-based hydrogel alone and the ELR-based hydrogel embedded with rabbit mesenchymal stromal cells(rMSCs)were tested for the regeneration of critical subchondral defects in 10 New Zealand rabbits.Thus,cylindrical osteochondral defects were filled with an aqueous solution of ELRs and the animals sacrificed at 4months for histological and gross evaluation of features of biomaterial performance,including integration,cellular infiltration,surrounding matrix quality and the new matrix in the defects.Although both approaches helped cartilage regeneration,the results suggest that the specific composition of the rMSC-containing hydrogel permitted adequate bone regeneration,whereas the ELR-based hydrogel alone led to an excellent regeneration of hyaline cartilage.In conclusion,the ELR cross-linker solution can be easily delivered and forms a stable well-integrated hydrogel that supports infiltration and de novo matrix synthesis. | Filippo Cipriani Blanca Arino Palao Israel Gonzalez de Torre Aurelio Vega Castrillo Hector Jose Aguado Hernandez Matilde Alonso Rodrigo Angel Jose Alvarez Barcia Ana Sanchez Veronica Garcıa Diaz Monica Lopez Pena Jose Carlos Rodriguez-Cabello | 2019 | Regenerative Biomaterials2019,6,6: | 3 |
| 8 | 3D additive manufactured composite scaffolds with antibiotic-loaded lamellar fillers for bone infection prevention and tissue regeneration显示文摘Bone infections following open bone fracture or implant surgery remain a challenge in the orthopedics field.In order to avoid high doses of systemic drug administration,optimized local antibiotic release from scaffolds is required.3D additive manufactured(AM)scaffolds made with biodegradable polymers are ideal to support bone healing in non-union scenarios and can be given antimicrobial properties by the incorporation of antibiotics.In this study,ciprofloxacin and gentamicin intercalated in the interlamellar spaces of magnesium aluminum layered double hydroxides(MgAl)andα-zirconium phosphates(ZrP),respectively,are dispersed within a thermoplastic polymer by melt compounding and subsequently processed via high temperature melt extrusion AM(~190◦C)into 3D scaffolds.The inorganic fillers enable a sustained antibiotics release through the polymer matrix,controlled by antibiotics counterions exchange or pH conditions.Importantly,both antibiotics retain their functionality after the manufacturing process at high temperatures,as verified by their activity against both Gram+and Gram-bacterial strains.Moreover,scaffolds loaded with filler-antibiotic do not impair human mesenchymal stromal cells osteogenic differentiation,allowing matrix mineralization and the expression of relevant osteogenic markers.Overall,these results suggest the possibility of fabricating dual functionality 3D scaffolds via high temperature melt extrusion for bone regeneration and infection prevention. | María C´amara-Torres Stacy Duarte Ravi Sinha Ainhoa Egizabal Noelia´Alvarez Maria Bastianini Michele Sisani Paolo Scopece Marco Scatto Alessandro Bonetto Antonio Marcomini Alberto Sanchez Alessandro Patelli Carlos Mota Lorenzo Moroni | 2021 | Bioactive Materials2021,6,4: | 2 |

| 12 | Supporting IrO2 and IrRuOx nanoparticles on TiO2 and Nb-doped TiO2 nanotubes as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction显示文摘IrO2 and IrRuOx(Ir:Ru 60:40 at%),supported by 50 wt%onto titania nanotubes(TNTs)and(3 at%Nb)Nb-doped titania nanotubes(Nb-TNTs),as electrocatalysts for the oxygen evolution reaction(OER),were synthesized and characterized by means of structural,surface analytical and electrochemical techniques.Nb doping of titania significantly increased the surface area of the support from 145(TNTs)to 260 m2g-1(Nb-TNTs),which was significantly higher than those of the Nb-doped titania supports previously reported in the literature.The surface analytical techniques showed good dispersion of the catalysts onto the supports.The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses showed that Nb was mainly in the form of Nb(IV)species,the suitable form to behave as a donor introducing free electrons to the conduction band of titania.The redox transitions of the cyclic voltammograms,in agreement with the XPS results,were found to be reversible.Despite the supported materials presented bigger crystallite sizes than the unsupported ones,the total number of active sites of the former was also higher due to their better catalyst dispersion.Considering the outer and the total charges of the cyclic voltammograms in the range 0.1–1.4 V,stability and electrode potentials at given current densities,the preferred catalyst was Ir O2 supported on the Nb-TNTs.The electrode potentials corresponding to given current densities were between the smallest ones given in the literature despite the small oxide loading used in this work and its Nb doping,thus making the Nb-TNTs-supported IrO2 catalyst a promising candidate for the OER.The good dispersion of IrO2,high specific surface area of the Nb-doped supports,accessibility of the electroactive centers,increased stability due to Nb doping and electron donor properties of the Nb(IV)oxide species were considered the main reasons for its good performance. | Radostina V.Genova-Koleva Francisco Alcaide Garbine Alvarez Pere L.Cabot Hans-Jürgen Grande María V.Martínez-Huerta Oscar Miguel | 2019 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2019,28,7: | 2 |
