Symptomatic Carotid Atherosclerotic Plaques Are Associated With Increased Infiltration of Natural Killer (NK) Cells and Higher Serum Levels of NK Activating Receptor Ligands

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
A wide array of immune cells, including lymphocytes, is known to be present and to play a pathogenetic role in atherosclerotic lesions. However, limited information is currently available regarding the presence of Natural Killer (NK) cell subsets within ...

Integration of Cholesterol Oxidase‐Based Biosensors on a Smart Contact Lens for Wireless Cholesterol Monitoring from Tears

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
The combination of a parity‐time symmetry wireless technology with a cholesterol sensor integrated into a smart contact lens enables high‐sensitivity cholesterol sensing at low concentration. Cholesterol plays a critical role in physiological functions, but elevated levels increase the risk of cardiovascular disease.

Metalloproteinases and Vulnerable Atherosclerotic Plaques [PDF]

Trends in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2007
Plaque rupture is the main cause of myocardial infarctions and strokes. Ruptured plaques have thin, highly inflamed, and collagen-poor fibrous caps that contain elevated levels of proteases, including metalloproteinases (MMPs), which might weaken plaque caps and promote rupture.

Harnessing Physiological Shear Stress in a Perfusion Bioreactor for Enhanced Endothelialization of Small‐Diameter Vascular Grafts

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Traditional static culture provides limited physiological relevance for evaluation of vascular grafts. A perfusion bioreactor system can provide more accurate in vitro model for evaluation of vascular grafts, exposing endothelial cells on 3D structure to physiological or pathological shear stress.

Nestinþ cells direct inflammatory cell migration in atherosclerosis [PDF]

, 2016
Atherosclerosis is a leading death cause. Endothelial and smooth muscle cells participate in atherogenesis, but it is unclear whether other mesenchymal cells contribute to this process. Bone marrow (BM) nestinþ cells cooperate with endothelial cells in

Extracellular Vesicles in Calcium Oxalate Nephrolithiasis: Emerging Biomarkers and Therapeutic Potential

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Kidney stones cause significant pain and healthcare costs. Current prediction, diagnosis, and treatment options are limited. Extracellular vesicles (EVs), rich in proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, offer a promising solution. This review explores the roles of EVs in kidney stone management, highlighting their potential as biomarkers and therapeutic ...
