Electronic Blood Vessel [PDF]

open access: yesMatter, 2020
Summary Advances in bioelectronics have great potential to address unsolvable biomedical problems in the cardiovascular system. By using poly(L-lactide-co-ε-caprolactone) (PLC) that encapsulates the liquid metal to make flexible and bio-degradable electrical circuitry, we develop an electronic blood vessel that can integrate flexible ...

Blood flow reprograms lymphatic vessels to blood vessels [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Investigation, 2012
Human vascular malformations cause disease as a result of changes in blood flow and vascular hemodynamic forces. Although the genetic mutations that underlie the formation of many human vascular malformations are known, the extent to which abnormal blood flow can subsequently influence the vascular genetic program and natural history is not.

Elevated serum extracellular vesicle arginase 1 in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional study in middle-aged and elderly population

open access: yesBMC Endocrine Disorders, 2022
Background Serum extracellular vesicle (EV)-derived arginase 1 (ARG 1) plays a critical role in diabetes-associated endothelial dysfunction. This study was performed to determine the levels of serum EV-derived ARG 1 in T2DM and non-T2DM participants and ...

Blood Vessels in Allotransplantation [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Transplantation, 2015
Human vascularized allografts are perfused through blood vessels composed of cells (endothelium, pericytes, and smooth muscle cells) that remain largely of graft origin and are thus subject to host alloimmune responses. Graft vessels must be healthy to maintain homeostatic functions including control of perfusion, maintenance of permselectivity ...

Efficacy and safety of switching from ticagrelor to clopidogrel during the early and late phase in acute coronary syndrome patients after percutaneous coronary intervention

open access: yesPlatelets, 2020
In patients with acute coronary syndrome (ACS), treatment using ticagrelor demonstrated significant ischemic benefits over clopidogrel; however, it was associated with increased bleeding complications leading to frequent de-escalation to clopidogrel. The

Significant increase of serum extracellular vesicle-packaged growth differentiation factor 15 in type 2 diabetes mellitus: a cross-sectional study

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Medical Research, 2023
Background Growth differentiation factor 15 (GDF15) is a stress-inducible factor involved in the inflammatory progression of many complications, including type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Growing evidence suggests that molecules in extracellular vesicles

Combined effect of hyperhomocysteinemia and smoking on the severity of coronary artery disease in young adults ≤ 35 years of age: a hospital-based observational study

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2021
Background The prevalence of coronary artery disease (CAD) continues to increase among young Chinese adults. Current smoking has been recognized as a major risk factor for premature CAD, and hyperhomocysteinaemia (HHcy) has also been suggested to be ...
