Lung maneuvers of large amplitudes for probing physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.Lung maneuvers of small amplitudes, such as the ones performed in oscillometry, are the current gold standard to probe lung mechanics in animals, but they are insensitive to detect baseline physiological alterations in mouse models of asthma. Herein, lung maneuvers of different amplitudes were compared in two mouse models of asthma.

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‐

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.Redox responsive mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) were engineered to deliver gemcitabine (Gem) and cisplatin (cisPt) at defined ratios to overcome chemoresistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Optimized Gem MSNs and Gem cisPt MSNs enhanced cytotoxicity in murine and human Gem resistant models, with select formulations inducing ...

Tunable Regional Targeting of Self‐Assembling Peptide Nanomaterials in Acute Myocardial Infarction
Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.In a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, intravascular delivery of peptide nanofibers with a collagen‐targeting peptide bound to the infarct vasculature while globular peptide nanoparticles penetrated into the infarct area. This study demonstrated that size, shape, and surface chemistry of nanomaterials control the delivery location within the ...
