Journal ArticleDOI

Eight novel CARD15 variants detected by DNA sequence analysis of the CARD15 gene in 111 patients with inflammatory bowel disease.

TL;DR: A severe disease phenotype was observed especially in patients who are compound-heterozygous for a common and a novel CARD15 mutation, thereby theoretically covering 73.9% of the described CARD15 variants and 96.6%" of the mutated alleles.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of perfusion and cyclic compression on in vitro tissue engineered meniscus implants

TL;DR: Biomechanical stimulation and perfusion have impact on collagen scaffolds seeded with BMSCs and cell proliferation can be enhanced using continuous perfusion and differentiation is fostered by mechanical stimulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Safety of adalimumab in Crohn's disease during pregnancy: case report and review of the literature.

TL;DR: In conclusion, the current data of registries and case reports do not support an increased risk for adalimumab use during pregnancy, as caution should be taken when the group of TNF-a antibodies regarding their risk in pregnancy is classified as category B drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Free fatty acids sensitize hepatocytes to bile acid-induced apoptosis.

TL;DR: Low levels of cholestasis normally not considered harmful could advance liver injury in patients with NAFLD, as delivery of free fatty acids to the liver in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease may render hepatocytes more vulnerable to glycochenodeoxycholic acid (GCDCA)-induced apoptosis.
