Renal pericytes: regulators of medullary blood flow [PDF]

, 2012
Regulation of medullary blood flow (MBF) is essential in maintaining normal kidney function. Blood flow to the medulla is supplied by the descending vasa recta (DVR), which arise from the efferent arterioles of juxtamedullary glomeruli.

Heterogeneity of human bone marrow and blood natural killer cells defined by single-cell transcriptome

Nature Communications, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells are important innate immune cells with diverse functions. Here the authors use single-cell RNA-sequencing of purified human bone marrow and peripheral blood NK cells to define five populations of NK cells with distinct ...

Evaluation of Canonical Inflammasome Activation in Human Monocytes by Imaging Flow Cytometry

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
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 ...

Identification of novel small molecule inhibitors of ETS transcription factors

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
ETS transcription factors play an essential role in tumourigenesis and are indispensable for sprouting angiogenesis, a hallmark of cancer, which fuels tumour expansion and dissemination. Thus, targeting ETS transcription factor function could represent an effective, multifaceted strategy to block tumour growth. The evolutionarily conserved E‐Twenty‐Six

On conditions of negativity of friction resistance for non-stationary modes of blood flow and possible mechanism of affecting of environmental factors on energy effectiveness of cardio-vascular system functioning

, 2013
It is shown that initiated by action of molecular viscosity impulse flow, directed usually from the moving fluid to limiting it solid surface, can, under certain conditions, turn to zero and get negative values in the case of non-stationary flow caused ...

Inert gas clearance from tissue by co-currently and counter-currently arranged microvessels [PDF]

, 2012
To elucidate the clearance of dissolved inert gas from tissues, we have developed numerical models of gas transport in a cylindrical block of tissue supplied by one or two capillaries. With two capillaries, attention is given to the effects of co-current

Simultaneous analysis of cytokines and co-stimulatory molecules concentrations by ELISA technique andof probabilities of measurable concentrations of interleukins IL-2, IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, CXCL8 (IL-8), IL-10, IL-13 occurring in plasma of healthy blood donors

Mediators of Inflammation, 2006
Background. The cytokine network remarkably influences homeostasis. There is not a complex analysis describing physiological values of soluble cytokines in healthy individuals. Methods.

The cytoskeletal control of B cell receptor and integrin signaling in normal B cells and chronic lymphocytic leukemia

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In lymphoid organs, antigen recognition and B cell receptor signaling rely on integrins and the cytoskeleton. Integrins act as mechanoreceptors, couple B cell receptor activation to cytoskeletal remodeling, and support immune synapse formation as well as antigen extraction.

Performance evaluation of a pulsatile ventricular assist device under non physiologic pumping frequencies by means FEM and 2D approach [PDF]

, 2017
A ventricular assist device (VAD) is a blood pump that works in parallel with heart. It is used as a mechanical assistance for patients that suffer cardiac insufficiency: as a therapy, as a bridge to transplant or to extend life.

Body Position Affects Capillary Blood Flow Regulation Measured with Wearable Blood Flow Sensors

Diagnostics, 2021
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 ...
