Extracellular Vesicles Modulation by an Adiponectin Receptor Agonist Provides Cardioprotection for Myocardial Ischemic Injury

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates that ALY688, a drug mimicking the heart‐protective hormone adiponectin, reduces myocardial ischemia injury. ALY688 increases the production of extracellular vesicles, which carry protective cargo including adiponectin itself.

The combined predictive power of the atherogenic index of plasma and serum glycated albumin for cardiovascular events in postmenopausal patients with acute coronary syndrome after percutaneous coronary intervention

Lipids in Health and Disease
Background Glycated Albumin (GA) and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) are two important biomarkers that respectively reflect lipid and glucose levels. Previous research has revealed their roles in cardiovascular diseases (CVD) and diabetes.

Shellac‐Mediated Assembly of Nanoparticles for mRNA Delivery

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A shellac‐mediated nanoparticle assembly strategy is presented, involving the complexation of mRNA and low‐molecular‐weight cationic molecules (e.g., polyethyleneimine, chitosan, lipids, and poly‐l‐lysine), followed by capping with shellac. This nanoparticle platform enables mRNA transfection following intravenous injection and facilitates gene editing

Coronary heart disease knowledge and health behaviour in student nurses [PDF]

, 2010
Introduction: Coronary heart disease (CHD), a gradual build up of fatty deposits in the coronary arteries, occurs as a result of several risk factors (RFs) with 75% attributable to lifestyle choices.

Heart rate and use of beta-blockers in stable outpatients with coronary artery disease [PDF]

, 2012
<p><b>Background:</b> Heart rate (HR) is an emerging risk factor in coronary artery disease (CAD). However, there is little contemporary data regarding HR and the use of HR-lowering medications, particularly beta-blockers, among ...

Physicochemical Reinforcement Unlocks Sterilization‐Stable Anisotropic Hydrogels for Cell‐Compatible Mock Arteries

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In vitro arterial models offer ethical and robust alternatives for vascular research but require cytocompatible materials that replicate physiological mechanics. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels produced by directional freezing and salting‐out (PVA DFSO) are anisotropic yet lack stability for cell culture. Herein, methacrylated PVA (PVA‐MA)

A genome-wide association study in Europeans and South Asians identifies five new loci for coronary artery disease.

, 2011
Genome-wide association studies have identified 11 common variants convincingly associated with coronary artery disease (CAD)¹⁻⁷, a modest number considering the apparent heritability of CAD⁸.
