Evaluation of Canonical Inflammasome Activation in Human Monocytes by Imaging Flow Cytometry
Canonical inflammasome activation is a tightly regulated process that has been implicated in a broad spectrum of inflammatory disorders. Inflammasome formation requires assembly of a cytosolic sensor protein with the adapter, ASC (apoptosis-associated ...

Characterization of Laser-Resistant Port Wine Stain Blood Vessels Using In Vivo Reflectance Confocal Microscopy. [PDF]
Background and objectivesPort wine stain (PWS) is a congenital vascular malformation of the human skin. Laser is the treatment of choice for PWS. Laser-resistant PWS is one crucial factor accounting for inadequate treatment outcome, which needs to be ...

Body Position Affects Capillary Blood Flow Regulation Measured with Wearable Blood Flow Sensors
In this study we demonstrate what kind of relative alterations can be expected in average perfusion and blood flow oscillations during postural changes being measured in the skin of limbs and on the brow of the forehead by wearable laser Doppler ...

In vivo effects of horse and rabbit antithymocyte globulin in patients with severe aplastic anemia
We recently reported that rabbit antithymocyte globulin was markedly inferior to horse antithymocyte globulin as a primary treatment for severe aplastic anemia. Here we expand on our findings in this unique cohort of patients.

Control of Cerebral Blood Flow by Blood Gases
Cerebrovascular reactivity can be measured as the cerebrovascular flow response to a hypercapnic challenge. The many faceted responses of cerebral blood flow to combinations of blood gas challenges are mediated by its vasculature’s smooth muscle and can ...
