Oxygen sensing by the carotid body: mechanisms and role in adaptation to hypoxia.

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Physiology - Cell Physiology, 2016
Oxygen (O2) is fundamental for cell and whole-body homeostasis. Our understanding of the adaptive processes that take place in response to a lack of O2(hypoxia) has progressed significantly in recent years.

Carotid body chemoreceptors, sympathetic neural activation, and cardiometabolic disease

open access: yesBiological Research, 2016
The carotid body (CB) is the main peripheral chemoreceptor that senses the arterial PO2, PCO2 and pH. In response to hypoxemia, hypercapnia and acidosis, carotid chemosensory discharge elicits reflex respiratory, autonomic and cardiovascular adjustments.

Time‐Controlled Dual Targeting to Program Systemic and Intercellular Transfer of Therapeutic Effects

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Aspirin‐liposomes loaded onto monocytes enable inflammation‐triggered targeting and efficient hand‐over of aspirin to inflamed cells. Monocytes uptake a significant portion of aspirin‐liposomes, prolonging therapeutic action. This approach enhances anti‐inflammatory effects through intercellular transfer, demonstrating a translational strategy for ...

Our experience in managing carotid body tumors in tertiary care center

open access: yesIndian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2023
Introduction: Carotid body tumors (CBTs), also known as paragangliomas or chemodectomas, are rare neuroendocrine neoplasms that arise near the carotid bifurcation within glomus cells derived from the embryonic neural crest. The reported incidence of CBTs

Biomaterial Strategies for Targeted Intracellular Delivery to Phagocytes

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Phagocytes are essential to a functional immune system, and their behavior defines disease outcomes. Engineered particles offer a strategic opportunity to target phagocytes, harnessing inflammatory modulation in disease. By tuning features like size, shape, and surface, these systems can modulate immune responses and improve targeted treatment for a ...

Five-year outcome of a staged giant Shamblin type III carotid body tumor excision

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Surgery Cases and Innovative Techniques, 2023
Giant carotid body tumors, defined as those >8 cm in size, are extremely rare. Definitive surgical management is a complex undertaking because these large tumors tend to have grown to envelop cranial nerves and the carotid artery, and few data exist ...

Vascular Health in American Football Players: Cardiovascular Risk Increased in Division III Players [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Studies report that football players have high blood pressure (BP) and increased cardiovascular risk. There are over 70,000 NCAA football players and 450 Division III schools sponsor football programs, yet limited research exists on vascular health of ...

Bioengineering Strategies for Treating Neointimal Hyperplasia in Peripheral Vasculature: Innovations and Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, Volume 14, Issue 7, March 14, 2025.
This review highlights emerging bioengineering strategies for treating neointimal hyperplasia in the peripheral vasculature, focusing on approaches that promote re‐endothelialization, modulate smooth muscle cell phenotype, reduce inflammation, mitigate oxidative stress, and optimize biomechanical compliance.

STUDIES OF CAROTID BODY AND CAROTID SINUS: FINE STRUCTURE OF CAROTID BODY

open access: yesNihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1966
古くから頚動脈洞反射にかんする研究は多く, 総頚動脈分岐部には, 圧受容体と化学受容体の存在することは多くの生理学者が認めるものである. これらにかんして, イヌを用いて, 頚動脈洞を刺激し, その血中カテコールアミン体の変動を認め, さらに, 動脈血中の化学成分の変化によつて起こる呼吸反射をみとめ, 先人の業績を確認しながら, 組織像を追究した. ことに, 電顕像および組織化学的方法によつても, 頚動脈体は, 腺でも単なる血管糸球でもなく, 傍神経節でもなく, クローム親和性細胞も認められず, いわゆる頚動脈体と呼称されるのにふさわしい臓器であることを認め, さらに, 頚動脈洞壁の微細構造と比較検討し, 本小体が化学受容体とされて当然のことと結語した.
