Feasibility and Procedural Considerations of Balloon‐Expandable TAVR in Patients With Prior Endovascular Aortic Stent Grafts

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives To evaluate the feasibility and short‐term outcomes of transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) using balloon‐expandable Sapien valves in patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts. Methods We conducted a single‐center, retrospective study of 23 patients with prior endovascular aortic stent grafts who underwent TAVR ...

Optimizing Glutaraldehyde-Fixed Tissue Heart Valves with Chondroitin Sulfate Hydrogel for Endothelialization and Shielding against Deterioration

open access: yes, 2018
Porcine glutaraldehyde-fixed pericardium is widely used to replace human heart valves. Despite the stabilizing effects of glutaraldehyde fixation, the lack of endothelialization and the occurrence of immune reactions contribute to calcification and ...

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...

Histological Analysis of Cryopreserved Venous Allografts Used for Liver Transplantation and Hepato‐Biliary‐Pancreatic Surgery

open access: yesJournal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Cryopreserved venous allografts, which we pioneered in 1999 for use in living donor liver transplantation and hepato‐biliary‐pancreatic surgery, are widely used and are believed to preserve vascular architecture with minimal anticoagulation or immunosuppression requirements and patency comparable to autologous grafts.

Protosappanin A Alleviates Atherosclerosis by Regulating the MDM2/GPX4 Axis‐Mediated Endothelial Ferroptosis

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
PTA alleviates atherosclerosis by regulating the MDM2/GPX4 axis‐mediated endothelial ferroptosis. ABSTRACT Endothelial ferroptosis is a crucial pathogenic driver of atherosclerosis (AS) progression. Protosappanin A (PTA), a bioactive compound from Caesalpinia sappan L., protects cardiovascular vessels by regulating ferroptosis.
