Troponins, Acute Coronary Syndrome and Renal Disease: From Acute Kidney Injury Through End-stage Kidney Disease [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The diagnosis of acute coronary syndromes (ACS) is heavily dependent on cardiac biomarker assays, particularly cardiac troponins. ACS, particularly non-ST segment elevation MI, are more common in patients with acute kidney injury, chronic kidney disease (

Historical Aspects and Relevance of the Human Coronary Collateral Circulation

open access: yesCurrent Cardiology Reviews, 2014
In 1669, anastomoses between the right and left coronary artery were first documented by Richard Lower of Amsterdam. Using post-mortem imaging, a debate followed on the existence of structural inter-coronary anastomoses, which was not resolved before the

Cyclic Peptide–Polymer Conjugate Nanotubes for Delivery of SN‐38 in Treatment of Colorectal Cancer Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study develops cyclic peptidepolymer conjugate nanotubes with hydrophobic, drug‐rich cores to enhance drug loading and stability, and demonstrates their responsive disassembly, pharmacokinetics, and anti‐tumour efficacy in colorectal cancer models using the anticancer drug SN‐38.

UFMylation maintains YAP stability to promote vascular endothelial cell senescence

open access: yesiScience
Summary: Endothelial cell (EC) senescence is an accomplice for vascular aging, which leads to cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). Evidences showed that Hippo-Yes-associated protein (YAP) signaling pathway plays an essential role in aging-associated CVDs ...

Molecular Simulations of Polymer‐based Drug Nanocarriers: From Physical and Structural Properties to Controlled Release

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Polymer‐based drug delivery systems can effectively overcome the limitations of free drugs in terms of solubility, stability, and plasma half‐life, yet their development has traditionally relied on time‐consuming trial‐and‐error approaches. This review highlights recent advances in applying molecular simulation to the design of polymer‐based drug ...

Strategies to Improve the Lipophilicity of Hydrophilic Macromolecular Drugs

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic macromolecular drugs can be successfully lipidized by covalent attachment of lipids, by hydrophobic ion pairing with negatively or positively charged surfactants, and by dry or wet reverse micelle formation. Lipophilicity enhancement of hydrophilic macromolecules has several benefits including stability and bioavailability improvement ...

Fractional flow reserve versus angiography in guiding management to optimize outcomes in non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (FAMOUS-NSTEMI): rationale and design of a randomized controlled clinical trial [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
<p>Background: In patients with acute non–ST-elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI), coronary arteriography is usually recommended; but visual interpretation of the angiogram is subjective.

Engineered Plasmonic and Fluorescent Nanomaterials for Biosensing, Motion, Imaging, and Therapeutic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A schematic illustration of how noble metals can be used to create nanoparticles (NPs) or nanoclusters (NCs). Noble metal NPs, due to their plasmonic properties, enable photothermal therapy and surface‐enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). In contrast, NCs, which lack a plasmonic resonance band, exhibit fluorescence, making them ideal for bioimaging ...
