PLATELET-RICH PLASMA LOADED NERVE GUIDANCE CONDUIT AS IMPLANTABLE BIOCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS FOR RECURRENT LARYNGEAL NERVE REGENERATION

Platelet-rich plasma loaded nerve guidance conduit as implantable biocompatible materials for recurrent laryngeal nerve regeneration

Abstract Vocal cord paralysis caused by recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) injury during thyroidectomy results in hoarseness, aspiration, and dyspnea.We evaluated the usefulness of nerve guidance conduits (NGCs) constructed from an asymmetric polycaprolactone (PCL)/Pluronic F127 porous membrane and filled with platelet-rich plasma (PRP) for functional

SULPHIDE MINERALIZATION IN UPPER WESTPHALIAN COAL SEAMS FROM THE EASTERN PART OF THE UPPER SILESIAN COAL BASIN

Morphologically diversified sulphide Dab Pads mineralization has been found in No.301 and 302 coal seams (Westphalian B).The main sulphide is pyrite which forms veinlets cross-cutting the sedimentary fabrics of the coal, encrusts the cellular structures and intergrowths with oxysulphides.Two generations of pyrites were observed: the preceding and t

Regulation of energy homeostasis via GPR120

Free fatty acids (FFAs) are fundamental units of key nutrients.FFAs exert various biological functions, depending on the chain length and degree of desaturation.Recent studies have shown that several FFAs act as ligands of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), activate intracellular signaling and exert physiological functions via these GPCRs.GPR120
