Immune-Mediated Vascular Injury and Dysfunction in Transplant Arteriosclerosis

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Solid organ transplantation is the only treatment for end-stage organ failure but this life-saving procedure is limited by immune-mediated rejection of most grafts.

Aortic Pulse Wave Velocity and Extracellular Water Expansion in Hemodialysis Patients

open access: yesArtificial Organs, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Pulse wave velocity (PWV), a measurement of arterial stiffness, is a risk factor for cardiovascular mortality in hemodialysis patients. Debate continues as to whether PWV is increased by volume overload. As such, we reviewed the association between volume overload and PWV.

Targeting the Secretin Receptor in Macrophages Attenuates Silica‐Induced Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesCell Proliferation, EarlyView.
Targeting macrophage SCTR mitigates integrated profibrotic, inflammatory, ER stress, and senescent pathways, preserving lung function and revealing a novel therapeutic strategy for silicosis.

Validation of a microRNA profile in urine liquid biopsy with diagnostic and stratification value for bladder cancer classification, available through the open app BladdermiRaCan

open access: yesExperimental Hematology & Oncology
We aimed to identify a profile of urine microRNAs (miRNAs) with diagnostic and stratification potential in the whole range of bladder cancer (BC) categories, to avoid current invasive, harmful and expensive procedures.

Fingertip skin autofluorescence as a non‐invasive marker for vascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Investigation, EarlyView.
This multicenter study demonstrated that fingertip autofluorescence, measured non‐invasively, correlates with clinical risk factors and vascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes. Our findings suggest that fingertip autofluorescence may serve as a convenient marker for evaluating both microvascular and macrovascular complications in ...

Telomere length, cardiovascular risk and arteriosclerosis in human kidneys: an observational cohort study

open access: yesAging, 2015
Background Replicative senescence, associated with telomere shortening, plays an important role in aging and cardiovascular disease. The relation between telomere length, cardiovascular risk, and renal disease is unknown. Methods Our study consisted of a

A Meta‐Analysis of the Effects of Acute Sleep Deprivation on the Cortical Transcriptome in Rodent Models

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
How does sleep deprivation affect the brain? We performed a meta‐analysis of publicly available transcriptional profiling datasets characterising the effects of sleep deprivation on cortical gene expression (n = 293 mice, 16,290 genes) and validated our results in an independent sample (n = 222 mice).

The complex TIE between macrophages and angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Macrophages are primarily known as phagocytic immune cells, but they also play a role in diverse processes, such as morphogenesis, homeostasis and regeneration.

Cholesterol and arteriosclerosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The endothelium, the layer of cells lining the interior of blood vessels, forms a complicated interface that uses signals carried by the circulating blood to modulate vascular tone, the concentration of inflammatory cells and the coagulation cascade.

Molecular pathophysiology of chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder: Focus on the fibroblast growth factor 23–Klotho axis and bone turnover dynamics

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease–mineral and bone disorder (CKD‐MBD) is a major complication of chronic kidney disease (CKD), characterized by disruptions in mineral metabolism, abnormal bone turnover and vascular calcification, which collectively increase the risk of fractures and cardiovascular disease.
