medical illustration of This image illustrates a stenotic aortic valve, highlighting the differences between a normal valve with three cusps and a diseased valve. The normal valve allows proper blood flow from the left ventricle to the aorta, while the stenotic valve shows calcification and thickening of the cusps, restricting opening and impairing hemodynamics. This visual aids in understanding aortic stenosis and its impact on cardiac function, valuable for patient education and medical training.
Next medical illustration of Bees and flowers represent immune dysfunction in PTEN-deficient gliomas in this editorial illustration.  Glioma cells overexpress SPP-1, which attracts macrophages. Flowers represent uncontrolled tumor growth.  SPP-1 changes macrophage behavior, promoting tumor growth.  To explain complex molecular processes for Keywords: PTEN-deficient glioma, macrophage signaling, SPP-1, tumor microenvironment, immune evasion, cancer immunology.
