ICP4-Associated Activation of Rap1b Facilitates Herpes Simplex Virus Type I (HSV-1) Infection in Human Corneal Epithelial Cells.
The strong contribution of RAS-related protein 1b (Rap1b) to cytoskeleton remodeling determines intracellular and extracellular physiological activities, including the successful infection of viruses in permissive cells, but its role in the…

Low and high dose methamphetamine differentially regulate synaptic structural plasticity in cortex and hippocampus.
Psychostimulants, such as methamphetamine (METH) can induce structural remodeling of synapses by remodeling presynaptic and postsynaptic morphology. Escalating or long-lasting high dose METH accounts for neurodegeneration by targeting multi…

Management of blepharospasm and blepharophimosis associated with Schwartz-Jampel syndrome.
We report the case of a 5-year-old boy with progressive bilateral blepharospasm and blepharophimosis secondary to Schwartz-Jampel syndrome type 1A. Molecular findings confirmed two novel heterozygous mutations in the HSPG2 gene. After the p…

Stimulation of toll-like receptor pathways by burn eschar tissue as a possible mechanism for hypertrophic scarring.
Hypertrophic scars (HTS) are a common complication following burn injuries with prolonged inflammation. They do not respond well to current treatment options including mechanical, biomolecular and surgical therapies. Toll-like receptor (TLR…

Deep dermal fibroblast profibrotic characteristics are enhanced by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells.
Hypertrophic scars are a significant fibroproliferative disorder complicating deep injuries to the skin. We hypothesize that activated deep dermal fibroblasts are subject to regulation by bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs)…
