Sex differences in mechanisms of arterial stiffness

British Journal of Pharmacology, 2019
Arterial stiffness progressively increases with aging and is an independent predictor of cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. Evidence supports that there are sex differences in the time course of aging‐related arterial stiffness and the associated CVD ...

Programmable Compliance in Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts by Design of Melt‐Electrowritten Scaffold Architectures for In Situ Tissue Engineering

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Small‐diameter vascular grafts with compliance tunable by design are fabricated via melt electrowriting. By controlling the winding angle of intertwined helical fibers, grafts with compliances matching those of human vessels, from veins to arteries, are realized. This holds the potential of avoiding a compliance mismatch, which has been identified as a

Microscopically Adaptable Bioink Guide Cell Compartmentalization toward Morphogenesis of a Functional Vasculature‐Like System

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Contractile vasculatures are fabricated through a one‐step bioprinting strategy. The adaptable microenvironment provided by ECM‐mimicking bioink triggers cell sorting and compartmentalization of endothelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells toward a histological configuration by focal adhesion kinase‐mediated upregulation of cell adhesion and ...

Vascular Aging and Arterial Stiffness

Arquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2017
Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) account annually for almost one third of all deaths worldwide. Among the CVD, systemic arterial hypertension (SAH) is related to more than half of those outcomes. Type 2 diabetes mellitus is an independent risk factor for SAH because it causes functional and structural damage to the arterial wall, leading to stiffness ...

Arterial Stiffness in the Heart Disease of CKD.

Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2019
CKD frequently leads to chronic cardiac dysfunction. This complex relationship has been termed as cardiorenal syndrome type 4 or cardio-renal link. Despite numerous studies and reviews focused on the pathophysiology and therapy of this syndrome, the role

Uniting 4D Printing and Melt Electrowriting for the Enhancement of Regenerative Small Diameter Vascular Grafts

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid 4D printing strategy enables the fabrication of shape‐morphing, mechanically reinforced tubular constructs for vascular tissue engineering. By combining alginate‐methylcellulose hydrogels with melt electrowritten polycaprolactone fibers and protein‐based functionalization, this platform supports spatially organized co‐cultures of fibroblasts ...

Angiogenic and angiostatic factors in renal scleroderma-associated vasculopathy [PDF]

, 2017
BACKGROUND: The angiogenesis in systemic sclerosis (SSc) is impaired. An imbalance of pro-angiogenic factors and angiogenesis inhibitors has been implicated in the progression of peripheral microvascular damage, defective vascular repair and fibrosis ...
