Lactate‐Activated GPR132‐Src Signal Induces Macrophage Senescence and Aggravates Atherosclerosis Under Diabetes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Elevated lactate in diabetes activates the GPR132‐Src pathway in macrophages, inducing macrophage senescence and further enhancing foam cell formation. This mechanism exacerbates atherosclerotic progression. Abstract Diabetes is widely acknowledged as a significant risk factor for atherosclerosis, facilitating plaque formation through various ...

Alkaptonuric aortic stenosis [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Heart Journal, 2007
A 71-year-old male patient was referred for the evaluation of a high-grade aortic stenosis. His medical history revealed prosthetic hip and joint replacement due to degenerative arthritis at the age of 55. On physical examination, a 2/4 systolic ejection murmur at the right upper sternal border, kyphosis, and a bluish-black discolouration of the sclera

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

open access: yesAdvanced 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.

Embolic strokes of undetermined source: prevalence and patient features in the ESUS Global Registry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: Recent evidence supports that most non-lacunar cryptogenic strokes are embolic. Accordingly, these strokes have been designated as embolic strokes of undetermined source (ESUS).

Truncating Variants in RREB1 Cause a Novel RASopathy Syndrome of Congenital Heart Disease, Genitourinary Malformations, and Developmental Delay

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The interstitial 6p microdeletion syndrome is characterized by dysmorphic facies and structural heart, kidney, brain, and musculoskeletal differences. RREB1 haploinsufficiency and consequent abnormal RAS‐MAPK pathway signaling have been proposed as a driver of the disease phenotype; however, apart from a single case report, the phenotype of ...
