Impact of Hypoxia on Cardiopulmonary Adaptation in Canines: A Comprehensive Review
Abstract: Hypoxia triggers a series of cardiopulmonary responses that play an important role in oxygen delivery and the continuation of physiological activity in mammals. Canines are also a useful translational model of study to examine these adaptive responses because of their anatomical, physiological, and cardiopulmonary differences with humans. This review summarizes the experimental data of acute, subacute and chronic hypoxia in dogs with particular focus on the variations in cardiac functioning, …

Rheumatoid Arthritis and Stem Cell Therapies Perspectives for It
Abstract: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic autoimmune disorder characterized by systemic inflammation, primarily affecting synovial joints, leading to joint destruction and systemic complications. The pathogenesis involves immune system dysregulation, autoantibody production, and enzymatic imbalances. Enzymes, including matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), serine proteases, and kinases, play crucial roles in these processes. Their dysregulation contributes significantly to disease progression through the imbalance of pro-inflammatory cytokines, oxidative stress, and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation. MMPs, …
