Atherothrombosis and Oxidative Stress: Mechanisms and Management in Elderly [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Significance: The incidence of cardiovascular events (CVEs) increases with age, representing the main cause of death in an elderly population. Aging is associated with overproduction of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which may affect clotting and ...

Single‐Cell Transcriptome Analysis Reveals That Hmga2 Regulates Neuroinflammation and Retinal Function by Modulating Müller Cell Autophagy Through PI3K/AKT Signaling Following MCAO‐Induced Retinal Ischemia

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Employing snRNA‐seq post‐MCAO‐induced retinal ischemia (RI), this study revealed a novel Hmga2‐high Müller cell subpopulation. Hmga2 knockout alleviated neuroinflammation and RI symptoms, potentially by binding PI3K and regulating Müller cell autophagy.

Optimal Treatment of Carotid Artery Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2008
Extracranial carotid artery disease accounts for approximately 25% of ischemic strokes. Although carotid endarterectomy (CEA) is the established gold standard for carotid revascularization, carotid artery angioplasty and stenting (CAS) is continually developing into a safer and more efficacious method of stroke prevention. Embolic protection, improving

Early diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases in workers: role of standard and advanced echocardiography [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) still remains the main cause of morbidity and mortality and consequently early diagnosis is of paramount importance. Working conditions can be regarded as an additional risk factor for CVD. Since different aspects of the job

Neutrophil Mobilization Triggers Microglial Functional Change to Exacerbate Cerebral Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
These study underscores the pivotal role of neutrophil‐derived myeloid‐related protein 14 (MRP14) in the pathophysiology of acute ischemic stroke (AIS). MRP14 not only disrupts mitochondrial function, thereby inhibiting microglial phagocytosis of neutrophils, but also activates microglial pyroptosis, exacerbating neuroinflammation following AIS ...

Multiscale optoacoustic assessment of skin microvascular reactivity in carotid artery disease

open access: yesPhotoacoustics
Microvascular endothelial dysfunction may provide insights into systemic diseases, such as carotid artery disease. Raster-scan optoacoustic mesoscopy (RSOM) can produce images of skin microvasculature during endothelial dysfunction challenges via ...

Perivascular mast cells regulate vein graft neointimal formation and remodeling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Objective. Emerging evidence suggests an important role for mast cells in vein graft failure. This study addressed the hypothesis that perivascular mast cells regulate in situ vascular inflammatory and proliferative responses and subsequent vein graft ...

Regulation of Neuroinflammation by Microglial DUBA‐IRAK1‐IKKβ Signaling Loop

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The protein levels of deubiquitinating enzyme A (DUBA) are rapidly upregulated in microglia after activation of Toll‐like receptor 4 (TLR4). In turn, DUBA potentiates TLR4‐induced proinflammatory signal transduction in microglia by stabilizing interleukin‐1 receptor activated kinase 1 (IRAK1) through K48 deubiquitination.

Blood flow analysis in carotid artery bifurcation by two-dimensional ultrasonic-measurement-integrated simulation

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2014
If highly precise elucidation of the blood flow characteristics in a carotid bifurcation was possible, it would be widely applicable to diagnosis of circulatory diseases such as arteriosclerosis and cerebrovascular disease.
