    Abstract Disparities in surgical outcomes often result from subjective than objective decisions dictated by surgical training, experience, and available resources. To improve outcomes, surgeons have adopted advancements in robotics, endoscopy, and intra-operative imaging including fluorescence-guided surgery (FGS), which highlight tumors in real-time without using ionizing radiation. However, like many medical innovations, technical, economic, and logistic challenges have hindered widespread adoption of FGS beyond high-resource centers. To overcome these impediments, we developed the fully-wearable and battery-powered fluorescence imaging augmented reality Raspberry Pi-based goggle system (FAR-Pi). Novel device design ensures distance-independent coalignment between real and augmented FAR-Pi views and offers higher spatial resolution, depth of focus, and fluorescence detection sensitivity than existing bulkier, pricier, and wall-powered technologies. When paired with pan-tumor targeting fluorescent agents such as LS301, FAR-Pi objectively identifies tumors in vivo. As an open-source, affordable, and adaptable system, FAR-Pi is poised to democratize access to FGS and improve health outcomes worldwide.

    Abstract Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the expression of molecular markers and epineural blood flow after differing degrees of nerve injury to identify potential tools to predict nerve recovery in a rat sciatic nerve model.
    Methods: A total of 72 rats were divided into nine groups. Each group was subjected to one of three crush injuries, created by applying one of three vascular clamps for 30 seconds. Vascularity was assessed with laser Doppler flowmetry before and after crush, and at nonsurvival surgery. Nonsurvival surgeries were performed 6 hours, 2 weeks, or 6 weeks later with nerve conduction studies and muscle strength testing. Expression of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) and matrix metalloproteinase 2 (MMP-2) in each nerve was quantified using with enzyme linked immunosorbent analysis.
    Results: Persistent hyperemia was noted in the zone of injury compared with baseline at 2 weeks and 6 weeks in the groups that displayed incomplete recovery. Expression of MMP-9 at 6 hours increased with increasing severity of crush and was inversely related to tibialis anterior muscle force recovery. The ratio of MMP-9:MMP-2 expression correlated well with recovery of compound nerve action potential amplitude at 6 weeks.
    Conclusions: Resolution of nerve hyperemia may correlate with nerve recovery from trauma, but early measures of nerve blood flow after injury are not prognostic of recovery. Ratio of MMP-9:MMP-2 expression 6 hours after injury correlates with recovery of compound nerve action potential at 6 weeks, while MMP-9 expression alone predicts tibialis anterior recovery. These findings together suggest that increased MMP-9 expression is a potentially useful marker of more severe nerve injury.

    Abstract Ferroptosis, a regulated cell death pathway driven by accumulation of phospholipid peroxides, has been challenging to identify in physiological conditions owing to the lack of a specific marker. Here, we identify hyperoxidized peroxiredoxin 3 (PRDX3) as a marker for ferroptosis both in vitro and in vivo. During ferroptosis, mitochondrial lipid peroxides trigger PRDX3 hyperoxidation, a posttranslational modification that converts a Cys thiol to sulfinic or sulfonic acid. Once hyperoxidized, PRDX3 translocates from mitochondria to plasma membranes, where it inhibits cystine uptake, thereby causing ferroptosis. Applying hyperoxidized PRDX3 as a marker, we determined that ferroptosis is responsible for death of hepatocytes in mouse models of both alcoholic and nonalcoholic fatty liver diseases, the most prevalent chronic liver disorders. Our study highlights the importance of ferroptosis in pathophysiological conditions and opens the possibility to treat these liver diseases with drugs that inhibit ferroptosis.
