Targeted delivery of the CB2 receptor agonist JWH‐133 via VCAM‐1‐functionalised nanoparticles attenuates atherosclerosis and reveals sex‐specific therapeutic outcomes

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Atherosclerosis, a chronic inflammatory disease characterised by lipid accumulation and endothelial dysfunction, remains a leading cause of cardiovascular morbidity and mortality. While cannabinoid 2 (CB2) receptor agonists show therapeutic promise in preclinical studies, their systemic application is hindered by poor ...

Cerebral Ventriculomegaly With Abnormality of the Aqueduct of Sylvius: A Case Series

open access: yesClinical Genetics, EarlyView.
Genetic testing leads to a diagnostic rate of ~30% in a fetal cohort with cerebral ventriculomegaly where the neuropathological examination revealed a stenosis or atresia of the aqueduct of Sylvius. ABSTRACT Fetal cerebral ventriculomegalies are brain anomalies with potentially poor neurodevelopmental prognosis.

Aortic aneurysm: aortic arch aneurysm

open access: yes, 2018
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is defined as aneurysmal degeneration that occurs in the thoracic aorta. The incidence of TAA is increasing with improvements in screening, as well as advances in imaging. They are often asymptomatic but in some cases, they

Von Willebrand Factor and ADAMTS13 in Relation to Atherosclerosis in the General Population: The Rotterdam Study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Haematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels and lower ADAMTS13 activity are linked to increased risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, but their association with atherosclerosis burden, a potential underlying mechanism, remains unclear.

Sclerostin regulates bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) bioavailability through interactions with BMP complexes and fibrillin microfibrils

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Sclerostin (SOST) is a multifunctional extracellular modulator of BMP and Wnt signaling. SOST binds with high affinity to fibrillin‐1 and fibrillin‐2, localizing it to fibrillin microfibrils and regulating its extracellular bioavailability. Fibrillin‐bound SOST cannot engage BMP‐7 prodomain (PD) complexes, revealing a competitive mechanism that ...

RLIM‐associated neurodevelopmental disorders: From clinical spectrum to molecular mechanisms

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
RLIM (RNF12) is an E3 ubiquitin ligase essential for mammalian development. Loss‐of‐function variants cause Tønne–Kalscheuer syndrome, while duplications cause Xq13 duplication syndrome, highlighting RLIM dosage sensitivity. This review summarizes the genetics, clinical features, and molecular mechanisms of RLIM‐associated disorders, integrating ...

Prenatal diagnosis in fetal right aortic arch using chromosomal microarray analysis and whole exome sequencing: a Chinese single-center retrospective study

open access: yesMolecular Cytogenetics
Background Right aortic arch (RAA) is a common congenital aortic arch abnormality. Fetuses with RAA frequently have good outcomes after birth. However, chromosomal abnormalities and genetic syndromes suggest poor prognosis for these patients.

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development

open access: yesJournal of Anatomy, Volume 246, Issue 4, Page 616-630, April 2025.
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

Acute aortic syndromes

open access: yes, 2016
Acute aortic syndromes comprise aortic dissection, intramural haematoma, and penetrating atherosclerotic ulcer. Classification, presentation, diagnosis, and management of these conditions are discussed.
