The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Vascular Calcification: Mechanisms, Models, and Therapies

iNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Vascular calcification represents an active multifactorial process that mirrors several key features of skeletal bone mineralization. Clinically, it is characterized by diminished arterial compliance and increased arterial wall stiffness, both of which serve as independent predictors of significant adverse cardiovascular events.

'Quantum mechanics' and 'scientific explanation' an explanatory strategy aiming at providing 'understanding'

, 2008
Empirical studies persistently indicate that the usual explanatory strategies used in quantum mechanics (QM) instruction fail, in general, to yield understanding. In this study, we propose an instructional intervention, which: (a) incorporates into its subject matter a critical comparison of QM scientific content with the fundamental epistemological ...

The ''Cognitive Oblique effect'' and its neural substrate

, 2020
Previous studies have shown that visual direction reproduction results in two independent sources of anisotropy: a low level oblique effect, manifested in better accuracy in the reproduction of cardinal directions compared to oblique and a high level oblique effect, manifested in a distortion of directional space representation with space expansion ...

Engineering exosomal cargo loading via endogenous molecular pathways: Strategies to enhance therapeutic potential

Interdisciplinary Medicine, EarlyView.
This review illustrates how scientists engineer exosomes by hijacking the cell's own cargo‐sorting machinery. These strategies efficiently load therapeutic molecules into natural vesicles, creating powerful next‐generation drug delivery systems (Created with BioGDP.com).

Single‐Cell Profiling Identifies CLEC5A+ Macrophages as Key Drivers of Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Via CCL5‐Mediated M1 Polarization

Journal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) is a life‐threatening cardiovascular disease with limited therapeutic options. Through single‐cell RNA sequencing of aortic tissues from healthy individuals and TAA patients (105,541 cells), we identified CLEC5A+macrophages as the predominant pathogenic cell population exhibiting the highest M1 polarization score.

The Role of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS), Diffusion‐Tensor‐Imaging (DTI) and Structural MRI in the Alzheimer's Disease and Mild Cognitive Impairment Diagnosis: A Review

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is one of the most common neurological disorders affecting older adults, with approximately 7.2 million cases only in the United States. This number is projected to increase to 13.8 million in the United States by 2060, leading to increased expenditures for healthcare, long‐term care and hospice services. Consequently,

Proteomics‐Based Identification of the Pyroptosis‐Related Biomarker PCSK9 and Its Association With the Pathogenesis of Rheumatoid Arthritis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a common autoimmune disease, and early diagnosis is critical for effective treatment. This study aims to identify potential biomarkers related to pyroptosis through serum proteomics analysis, offering new insights for the early diagnosis of RA.

Chronic, Environmentally Relevant PM2.5 Exposure Exacerbates Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Early‐Stage Renal Dysfunction in a Rodent Model

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While epidemiological studies link fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and renal dysfunction, a translational gap exists, as most animal models utilize acute, high‐dose exposures that poorly reflect chronic, moderate‐level human scenarios.
