Open versus Endovascular Repair of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm.

open access: yesNew England Journal of Medicine, 2019
BACKGROUND Elective endovascular repair of an abdominal aortic aneurysm results in lower perioperative mortality than traditional open repair, but after 4 years this survival advantage is not seen; in addition, results of two European trials have shown ...

5’‐Methylthioadenosine Metabolic Reprogramming Drives H3K79 Monomethylation‐Mediated PAK2 Upregulation to Promote Cadmium‐Induced Breast Cancer Progression by Impairing Autophagic Flux

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Cadmium, a carcinogenic heavy metal, drives breast cancer progression via metabolic reprogramming and autophagic flux disruption. Multi‐omics revealed cadmium‐induced 5'‐methylthioadenosine depletion activates DOT1L‐mediated H3K79me1 at PAK2 promoter, upregulating PAK2 to block autophagy and driving malignancy. Clinically, 5'‐methylthioadenosine levels

Angiosarcoma of the abdominal aorta after endovascular aneurysm repair

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2019
Primary aortic sarcoma is a rare diagnosis that carries a poor prognosis. This case report features a 68-year-old man, treated 4 years earlier with an endovascular aortic aneurysm repair, who presented with fever, low back discomfort, and abdominal pain.

The Pathogenic Roles of Local Vitamin D Metabolism Defect in Valve Inflammation and Calcification

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study identifies the valvular interstitial cell populations responsible for valvular calcification induced by hyperphosphatemia and likely aging, uncovers local vitamin D metabolism defect‐induced inflammation as a critical pathogenic factor of calcific aortic valve disease, and highlights active vitamin D and ERK inhibitor as potential preventive

Endothelial BMP6 Drives Hemodynamic‐Dependent VSMCs Calcification in Carotid Atherosclerosis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study demonstrates that endothelial cell (EC)‐derived BMP6 promotes the osteogenic differentiation of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) through cell‐cell interactions. Additionally, the researchers preliminarily explore the driving effect of hemodynamic factors on BMP6‐induced calcification and reveal the regulatory role of KLF4 on BMP6.
