Contribution of Gli1+ Adventitial Stem Cells to Smooth Muscle Cells in Atherosclerosis and Vascular Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Gli1+ adventitial stem cells (ASCs) have been thought to generate smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in atherosclerosis. Using a dual‐recombinase lineage tracing to exclude ectopic labeling, Wang et al. found that Gli1+ ASCs do not contribute to SMCs in atherosclerotic plaques.

Flipping the Switch: MeCP2‐Mediated Lactylation Rewires Microglial Metabolism and Inflammation via the HK2/mTOR Axis in Poststroke Neuroinflammation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Stroke‐induced lactate accumulation promotes p300‐mediated lactylation of methyl‐CpG binding protein 2 (MeCP2) at lysine 210, which reprograms microglial metabolism toward glycolysis and activates the hexokinase 2 (HK2)/mTOR axis. This cascade promotes proinflammatory responses and impairs neurofunctional outcomes.

Fully automated segmentation and tracking of the intima media thickness in ultrasound video sequences of the common carotid artery [PDF]

, 2013
—The robust identification and measurement of the intima media thickness (IMT) has a high clinical relevance because it represents one of the most precise predictors used in the assessment of potential future cardiovascular events.

Monocyte‐Differentiation‐Activated Fluorescent “Scout” Probe for Precise in Vivo Detection of Vulnerable Plaque

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An innovative monocyte‐differentiation‐activated fluorescent “scout” probe (MDAF) leverages the inherent chemotaxis of monocytes toward vulnerable plaques (VAP) to enable efficient targeted delivery while achieving spatiotemporally controllable activation of its AIE fluorescent signals with the dynamic differentiation of monocytes, providing an ...
