A vascular endothelial growth factor–loaded chitosan-hyaluronic acid hydrogel scaffold enhances the therapeutic effect of adipose-derived stem cells in the context of stroke by Zhijian Zheng, Xiaohui Lin, Zijun Zhao, Qiang Lin, Ji Liu, Manli Chen, Wenwen Wu, Zhiyun Wu, Nan Liu, Hongbin Chen

“…Here, we found that vascular endothelial growth factor significantly improved the activity and paracrine function of adipose-derived stem cells. Subsequently, we developed a chitosan-hyaluronic acid hydrogel scaffold that incorporated vascular endothelial growth factor and first injected the scaffold into an animal model of cerebral ischemia-reperfusion injury. …”

Multiple Myeloma and B Cell Lymphoma. Investigation of IL-6, IL-6 Receptor Antagonist (IL-6RA), and GP130 Antagonist (GP130A) Using Various Parameters in an In Vitro Model by Eva Kovacs

“…Interleukin-6 (IL-6) affects the survival and proliferation of myeloma cells via autocrine and/or paracrine mechanisms. In this study, we investigated the effects of IL-6, IL-6 receptor antagonist (IL-6RA), and gp130 antagonist (gp130A) on the membrane expressions of IL-6R and gp130, on the viability, on the proliferation, on the DNA synthesis, and on the cell cycle phases in several multiple myeloma (MM) cell lines and B cell lymphoma cell lines. …”

Pourquoi vient-on voir l’Everest ? Représentations collectives et pratiques touristiques dans la région du Khumbu by Etienne Jacquemet

“…This region, long unexplored and closed to outsiders, and its landscapes infused with religiosity, attracts tourists because it is still largely seen as a genuine lost paradise. These elements are conducive to the processes of physical and mental renewal, in addition to social distinction which allows trekkers –in a more or less conscious, temporary, or performance-based manner– to push themselves to their limits. …”
