    Abstract Objective: This study aimed to address the prognostic impact of SOX2 and OCT3/4 expression on adult acute leukemia patients' outcomes.
    Methods: SOX2 and OCT3/4 expression by blast cells were evaluated by flow cytometry in 80 acute leukemia patients and 8 healthy controls.
    Results: Baseline SOX2 and OCT3/4 expression were significantly higher in both ALL (P = < 0.001, P = 0.005 respectively) and AML patients (P < 0.001, P = 0.003 respectively) as compared to control, and decline at complete remission (CR) and elevated again at relapse. High SOX2 and OCT3/4 levels were significantly correlated with the presence of adverse risk stratification parameters.
    Conclusion: Our findings indicated that both SOX2 and OCT3/4 could serve as biomarkers that could improve risk stratification of acute leukemia patients. Also, both SOX2 and OCT3/4 might be a therapeutic target, especially in resistant acute leukemia.

    Abstract The present study aimed to explore the potential ameliorative effect of apigenin (APG) against diabetes-associated genitourinary complications in rats. A diabetic rat model was induced by the intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin (STZ). All experimental animals were treated with vehicle or vehicle plus APG at a dose of 0.78 mg/kg/day for 10 days, either once diabetes was confirmed or at the end of the 3rd week after confirmation of diabetes. Rats were sacrificed at the end of the fifth week. In addition to the histological assessment, an analysis of kidney function tests and serum testosterone was performed to assess diabetic genitourinary complications. Gene expression of the mitochondrial fission protein, dynamin related protein 1 (Drp1), was measured in renal and testicular tissues using qRT PCR. APG can increase body weight, reduce blood glucose levels, and improve renal and testicular functions in diabetic rats. APG decreased Drp1 overexpression in diabetic animals' kidneys and testes. In summary, our current work discloses that APG attenuates diabetic genitourinary lesions in rats via suppressing Drp1 overexpression.

    Abstract Wound healing is a series of coordinated events that involve tissue repair and regeneration. Cold atmospheric plasma approach sheds the light on the mechanism that initiates the inflammatory responses throughout the healing cascade. The present study was planned to assess the effect of thymoquinone treated with cold plasma (TQcp) on the rat wound model compared to thymoquinone (TQ). To assess the wound healing potential of TQcp, a full-thickness wound model was used. The induced wound was smeared, starting just after excision, twice daily with TQcp and TQ for 7 days. Our findings revealed that TQcp improved the skin healing potential by augmenting the skin regeneration indices as evidenced by enhancing the new production of hyaluronic acid and collagen type I. TQcp significantly reduced the skin content of tumor necrosis factor- α and inhibited the hypertrophic scarring by up-regulating the skin content of transforming growth factor-beta. Furthermore, TQcp enhanced the levels of interleukin-10, alpha smooth muscle actin and vascular endothelial growth factor, demonstrating a great potential for wound healing that also reflected in the histopathological and ultra-structural picture of the skin. Finally, our results demonstrated that TQcp revealed a significant potential for wound healing than TQ alone.

    Abstract Deltamethrin is one of the most effective pyrethroid compounds, widely employed in veterinary medicine, public health, and farming. Deltamethrin-triggered oxidative stress largely causes serious harm to an organism. Acute toxicity of this compound was extensively investigated, while less information is available on its oral sub-acute effects. This study assessed, in the male Albino rats, the effects of oral gavage of either 0.874 mg/kg (0.01 LD

    Abstract Introduction: Schwannoma, a benign nerve sheath tumor originating from Schwann cells, can migrate within the spine due to various factors, impacting surgical planning. Unforeseen movement complicates treatment, and it is considered a very rare tumor.
    Case presentation: A 24-year-old woman complained of persistent back pain and was examined at a neurosurgery clinic. Initial MRI found a spinal lesion that later moved, leading to two surgeries. The diagnosis was a Schwannoma, confirmed by examining the tissue under a microscope, showing characteristic features of a Schwannoma, specifically Antoni type A with recent hemorrhage.
    Discussion: Schwannoma, a rare nerve cell tumor, often migrates within the spine due to its lack of attachment within the dura. The tumor's movement can be triggered by various factors like nerve root laxity, pressure changes, body positioning, or medical procedures. A case study discussed a woman with back pain; her tumor migrated between two MRI scans, showcasing a common migration pattern. Lower back pain commonly manifests as a primary symptom in most cases. Imaging techniques such as myelography and intraoperative ultrasound assist in locating and managing these mobile tumors, advocating for their utilization to minimize surgical complications.
    Conclusion: Reported a rare mobile thoracolumbar schwannoma from nerve sheath cells. Its mobility complicates surgery; precise imaging like intraoperative MRI and ultrasound are crucial for localization, preventing complications.

    Abstract Directly training spiking neural networks (SNNs) has remained challenging due to complex neural dynamics and intrinsic non-differentiability in firing functions. The well-known backpropagation through time (BPTT) algorithm proposed to train SNNs suffers from large memory footprint and prohibits backward and update unlocking, making it impossible to exploit the potential of locally-supervised training methods. This work proposes an efficient and direct training algorithm for SNNs that integrates a locally-supervised training method with a temporally-truncated BPTT algorithm. The proposed algorithm explores both temporal and spatial locality in BPTT and contributes to significant reduction in computational cost including GPU memory utilization, main memory access and arithmetic operations. We thoroughly explore the design space concerning temporal truncation length and local training block size and benchmark their impact on classification accuracy of different networks running different types of tasks. The results reveal that temporal truncation has a negative effect on the accuracy of classifying frame-based datasets, but leads to improvement in accuracy on event-based datasets. In spite of resulting information loss, local training is capable of alleviating overfitting. The combined effect of temporal truncation and local training can lead to the slowdown of accuracy drop and even improvement in accuracy. In addition, training deep SNNs' models such as AlexNet classifying CIFAR10-DVS dataset leads to 7.26% increase in accuracy, 89.94% reduction in GPU memory, 10.79% reduction in memory access, and 99.64% reduction in MAC operations compared to the standard end-to-end BPTT. Thus, the proposed method has shown high potential to enable fast and energy-efficient on-chip training for real-time learning at the edge.
