Leptin Aggravates Thoracic Aortic Dissection Through Impairment of Energy Metabolism in Nrip2+ Smooth Muscle Cells

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Epidemiological data confirm obesity elevates thoracic aortic dissection (TAD) risk. Patient analyses implicate hyperleptinemia, where leptin binding to vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) receptors triggers Socs3‐mediated suppression of Stat5a transcriptional activity.

PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Ex vivo renal perfusion and autotransplantation in treatment of calculous disease or abdominal aortic aneurysm. [PDF]

, 1975
Two more indications are described for temporary ex vivo perfusion of kidneys with revascularization of these organs as autografts to orthotopic or heterotopic locations. One of the patients had staghorn calculi which were removed from a solitary kidney.
