Quantitative proteomics identifies clusterin as a novel biomarker for atherosclerosis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This schematic illustrates the proposed mechanism. In advanced atherosclerotic lesions, upregulated CLU on the cell surface activates low‐density lipoprotein (LDL) receptor‐related protein 1 (LRP1). This interaction triggers the phosphorylation and activation of AKT.

Spontaneous Coronary Artery Dissection: Sex Differences in Clinical Presentation and Outcomes From the Australian New Zealand Registry

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Spontaneous coronary artery dissection (SCAD) predominantly affects women with limited data in men. We aimed to determine sex differences in SCAD presentation, associated conditions, and major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE).

A high‐fat diet with vitamin D and propylthiouracil produces a pro‐atherogenic phenotype in rats

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Male Sprague–Dawley rats received a cholesterol‐rich high‐fat diet supplemented with vitamin D and propylthiouracil for 11 weeks. The model induced dyslipidemia (increased total cholesterol/low‐density lipoprotein, decreased triglycerides), inflammation (increased interleukin‐6 and serum amyloid A), hypercalcemia, and reduced circulating endothelial ...

Porcine kidney xenotransplantation: From primate models to clinical reality

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
In the face of a critical shortage of human donor kidneys for end‐stage renal disease patients, porcine kidney xenotransplantation has emerged as a viable solution. This field has navigated major hurdles, including immune rejection, physiological incompatibilities, potential biomechanical differences and the risk of cross‐species infection. To overcome

The HCMV‐encoded miR‐UL36‐3p promotes angiogenesis of endothelial cells by downregulating FOXO3

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This illustration shows the role of hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p in endothelial cell angiogenesis. During productive infection, endothelial cells express HCMV‐encoded miRNAs. Viral hcmv‐miR‐UL36‐3p promotes endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and capillary tube formation by directly targeting and downregulating FOXO3. The pro‐angiogenic activity of hcmv‐miR‐

Multimorbidity and Associations with Cognition and Alzheimer's Disease Biomarkers

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Multimorbidity, the coexistence of 2 or more chronic conditions, has been linked to cognitive aging and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and AD‐related dementias, yet the mechanisms remain unclear. We aimed to examine the associations of multimorbidity with cognition and biomarkers across multiple mechanistic pathways.

Lysyl Oxidase Reduces Neutrophil Extravasation in Response to P. aeruginosa in an Infection‐on‐a‐Chip Model

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Lysyl oxidase crosslinking of type I collagen decreases neutrophil extravasation through an endothelium during the initial response to P. aeruginosa. This decrease in extravasation is likely due to the increase in VE‐cadherin expression between endothelial cells seeded on LOX‐crosslinked collagen hydrogels.

Tunable Regional Targeting of Self‐Assembling Peptide Nanomaterials in Acute Myocardial Infarction

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
In a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, intravascular delivery of peptide nanofibers with a collagen‐targeting peptide bound to the infarct vasculature while globular peptide nanoparticles penetrated into the infarct area. This study demonstrated that size, shape, and surface chemistry of nanomaterials control the delivery location within the ...

From armadillos to sloths: Patterns and variations in xenarthran coronary anatomy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Species of the superorder Xenarthra play a vital ecological role in the Neotropics. Despite their evolutionary significance, anatomical studies on their coronary circulation remain scarce. This study investigated the coronary anatomy of 82 hearts from nine Xenarthra species across the Dasypodidae, Myrmecophagidae, and Bradypodidae.
