Healthcare experience among patients with type 2 diabetes: A cross-sectional survey using the IEXPAC tool
(Wiley, 2021-02-15)[Abstract] Aim: To assess the experience with health care among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and to evaluate patients' demographic variables and healthcare-related characteristics which may affect their ... -
Healthcare experience and their relationship with demographic, disease and healthcare-related variables: a cross-sectional survey of patients with chronic diseases using the IEXPAC scale.
(Springer, 2018-11-15)[Abstract] BACKGROUND: Patient experience is acknowledged as a principal aspect of quality healthcare delivery, and it has implications with regard to outcomes. OBJECTIVES: Our objective was to evaluate the healthcare ... -
Hedgehog signalling as a target in cancer stem cells
(Spirnger, 2009)[Abstract] Hedgehog (Hh) is one of the most important signalling pathways. Together with the Wnt, TGF-β/BMP and Notch pathways, it is involved in both embryonic development and adult tissue homeostasis. This is because Hh ... -
High-Throughput Screen Detects Calcium Signaling Dysfunction in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome
(MDPI, 2021-07-07)[Abstract] Hutchinson–Gilford progeria syndrome (HGPS) is a deadly childhood disorder, which is considered a very rare disease. It is caused by an autosomal dominant mutation on the LMNA gene, and it is characterized by ... -
Human amniotic membrane as an alternative source of stem cells for regenerative medicine
(Elsevier, 2011-02-19)[Abstract] The human amniotic membrane (HAM) is a highly abundant and readily available tissue. This amniotic tissue has considerable advantageous characteristics to be considered as an attractive material in the field of ... -
Human amniotic mesenchymal stromal cells as favorable source for cartilage repair
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2017-01-10)[Abstract] Introduction: Localized trauma-derived breakdown of the hyaline articular cartilage may progress toward osteoarthritis, a degenerative condition characterized by total loss of articular cartilage and joint ... -
Human cartilage engineering in an in vitro repair model using collagen scaffolds and mesenchymal stromal cells
(Ivyspring, 2017-09-28)[Abstract] The purpose of this study was to investigate cartilage repair of in vitro lesion models using human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (hBMSCs) with different collagen (Col) scaffolds. Lesions were made ... -
Hydrogel-based localized nonviral gene delivery in regenerative medicine approaches: an overview
(MDPI, 2020-08-10)[Abstract] Hydrogel-based nonviral gene delivery constitutes a powerful strategy in various regenerative medicine scenarios, as those concerning the treatment of musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, or neural tissues disorders ... -
Hydrogen sulfide and inflammatory joint diseases
(Bentham, 2017)[Abstract] Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA) are widespread rheumatic diseases characterized by persistent inflammation and joint destruction. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gas with ... -
Hydrogen sulfide biosynthesis is impaired in the osteoarthritic joint
(Springer, 2019-11-16)[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common form of arthritis and it is a leading cause of disability in the elderly. Its complete etiology is not known although there are several metabolic, genetic, epigenetic, and ... -
Immortalizing mesenchymal stromal cells from aged donors while keeping their essential features
(Hindawi, 2020-06-16)[Abstract] Human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) obtained from aged patients are prone to senesce and diminish their differentiation potential, therefore limiting their usefulness for osteochondral ... -
Induced pluripotent stem cells for cartilage repair: current status and future perspectives
(AO Research Institute Davos, 2018-09-11)[Abstract] The establishment of cartilage regenerative medicine is an important clinical issue, but the search for cell sources able to restore cartilage integrity proves to be challenging. Human mesenchymal stromal cells ... -
Influence of age on rat bone-marrow mesenchymal stem cells potential
(Nature, 2015-11-19)[Abstract] Mesenchymal stem cells promising role in cell-based therapies and tissue engineering appears to be limited due to a decline of their regenerative potential with increasing donor age. Six age groups from bone ... -
Influence of mesenchymal stem cell-derived extracellular vesicles in vitro and their tole in ageing
(Springer Nature, 2020-01-03)[Abstract] Introduction: This study assessed whether mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived extracellular vesicles influenced ageing and pluripotency markers in cell cultures where they are added. Methods: MSC-derived ... -
Intraarticular administration effect of hydrogen sulfide on an in vivo rat model of osteoarthritis
(MDPI, 2020-10-08)[Abstract] Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common articular chronic disease. However, its current treatment is limited and mostly symptomatic. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is an endogenous gas with recognized physiological ... -
Is myofascial release therapy cost-effective when compared with manual therapy to treat workers’ mechanical neck pains?
(Elsevier, 2020-09-12)[Abstract] Objective: The aim of this study was to do a cost-benefit analysis of myofascial release therapy (MRT) compared to manual therapy (MT) for treating occupational mechanical neck pain. Methods: Variables regarding ... -
Isolation and characterization of mesenchymal stem cells from human amniotic membrane
(Mary Ann Liebert, 2011-01-04)[Abstract] Introduction: The human amniotic membrane is a highly abundant and readily available tissue that may be useful for regenerative medicine and cell therapy. Aim: To compare two previously published protocols for ... -
iTRAQ-based analysis of progerin expression reveals mitochondrial dysfunction, reactive oxygen species accumulation and altered proteostasis
(BioMed Central, 2015-06-12)[Abstract] Introduction. Nuclear accumulation of a mutant form of the nuclear protein Lamin-A, called Progerin (PG) or Lamin AΔ50, occurs in Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome (HGPS) or Progeria, an accelerated aging ... -
