Coronary Artery Diameter is Inversely Associated with the Severity of Coronary Lesions in Patients Undergoing Coronary Angiography

Cellular Physiology and Biochemistry, 2017
Background: The diameters of the coronary arteries have been suggested to be a potential predictor of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, whether the diameters of the coronary arteries are associated with the coronary lesion severity on angiography ...

Pulmonary artery from the left main coronary artery

Annals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2019
The usual sources of pulmonary blood flow in pulmonary atresia (PA) with(VSD) are patent ductus arteriosus and aortopulmonary collaterals. However, rarely fistulous collaterals may also arise from the coronary arteries which usually open into the main ...

CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq Reveal TREM2's Function in Monocyte Infiltration and Macrophage Apoptosis During Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm Development

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A method is developed for conducting genome‐wide CRISPR/Cas9 screening of monocyte infiltration in vivo (CRISPR‐MI) that is easily adaptable across a variety of disease models. Through the combination of CRISPR‐MI and scRNA‐Seq, this study discovers that Trem2 is a key regulator of early monocyte infiltration in abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA ...

Injectable BMSC‐Based Extracellular Matrix‐Mimicking Microtissue for Myocardial Infarction Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel injectable biomimetic extracellular matrix scaffold (JLSV) is designed for enhanced delivery of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). By utilizing janus basic nanotubes, laminin, stromal‐derived factor‐1 alpha, and vascular endothelial growth factor, this innovative JLSV–BMSC microtissue shows promise in myocardial infarction ...
