Vascular Abnormalities in Hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos Syndrome: A Retrospective Cohort Study

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hypermobile Ehlers–Danlos syndrome (hEDS), while generally free from severe vascular complications, may occasionally present with cardiac and vascular abnormalities that warrant specific investigation. While studies have been conducted on the prevalence of cardiac involvement, none have focused on vascular aspects. This retrospective study was

One‐step generation of heritable mitochondrial DNA multiplex‐engineered rats using DddA‐derived cytosine base editor

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established that mixed DdCBE microinjection is an efficient, heritable, and precise strategy for generating multiplex mtDNA mutant rats. This advancement significantly expands the utility of DdCBEs for mitochondrial disease modeling, providing a robust platform for exploring the pathogenic mechanisms of complex mtDNA mutations and developing ...

Clinical Pathway for Coronary Atherosclerosis in Patients Without Conventional Modifiable Risk Factors JACC State-of-the-Art Review

Reducing the incidence and prevalence of standard modifiable cardiovascular risk factors (SMuRFs) is critical to tackling the global burden of coronary artery disease (CAD).

A high‐fat diet with vitamin D and propylthiouracil produces a pro‐atherogenic phenotype in rats

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Male Sprague–Dawley rats received a cholesterol‐rich high‐fat diet supplemented with vitamin D and propylthiouracil for 11 weeks. The model induced dyslipidemia (increased total cholesterol/low‐density lipoprotein, decreased triglycerides), inflammation (increased interleukin‐6 and serum amyloid A), hypercalcemia, and reduced circulating endothelial ...

Asymptomatic leg and carotid atherosclerosis in smokers is related to degree of ventilatory capacity: longitudinal and cross-sectional results from 'Men born in 1914', Sweden

, 2001
Although smoking is associated with cardiovascular disease (CVD), many individuals remain healthy after many years of smoking. The population based cohort 'Men born in 1914' was used to investigate whether the occurrence of non-invasively detected ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

The HCMV‐encoded miR‐UL36‐3p promotes angiogenesis of endothelial cells by downregulating FOXO3

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This illustration shows the role of hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p in endothelial cell angiogenesis. During productive infection, endothelial cells express HCMV‐encoded miRNAs. Viral hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p promotes endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and capillary tube formation by directly targeting and downregulating FOXO3. The pro‐angiogenic activity of hcmv‐miR‐

Chronic alcohol consumption compromises gut barrier integrity and promotes endotoxemia: Implications for sepsis susceptibility in immunocompromised hosts

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Chronic alcohol exposure disrupts intestinal barrier integrity, resulting in a leaky gut and enhanced translocation of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and microbial products into the systemic circulation. Alcohol‐induced endotoxemia drives exaggerated pro‐inflammatory responses, mitochondrial damage, and activation of the cGAS–STING pathway, particularly in ...

Recent advances in the construction of humanized animal models and applications in translational medicine

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Substantial advances have been achieved in the development of humanized mouse models, which have proven highly valuable in evaluating cancer immunotherapies and elucidating the mechanisms of infectious diseases. There is now a growing shift in research toward larger animal models—such as pigs—that offer greater physiological similarity to humans ...

Continuous Versus Short EEG After Ischemic Stroke: What cEEG Adds for Detecting Abnormalities and Predicting Post‐Stroke Epilepsy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective The objective of this study was to quantify incremental diagnostic yield and prognostic value of continuous electroencephalography (cEEG; ≥12 hours) versus a 60‐minute short electroencephalography (sEEG) in predicting post‐stroke epilepsy (PSE) in patients without acute symptomatic seizures.
