New perspectives on VEGF signalling in Alzheimer's disease

open access: yesBrain Pathology, EarlyView.
Emery et al. bring together findings from recent multi‐omic studies, including single‐cell mRNA analysis of human post‐mortem brain tissue, and proteomic analysis of matched CSF and blood samples in large clinical studies. The authors present evidence of the involvement of altered VEGF signalling in vascular and immune dysfunction and neurodegeneration

The Discovery of Nonpeptide Endothelin Receptor Antagonists. Progression towards Bosentan

open access: yesCHIMIA, 1996
Since its discovery, endothelin-1 has attracted considerable scientific interest for its extremely potent and long-lasting vasoconstrictor effect and its binding to G-protein-coupled receptors.

Endothelin-1 promotes myofibroblast induction through the ETA receptor via a rac/phosphoinositide 3-kinase/akt-dependent pathway and is essential for the enhanced contractile phenotype of fibrotic fibroblasts

open access: yes, 2004
The endothelins are a family of endothelium-derived peptides that possess a variety of functions, including vasoconstriction. Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is up-regulated during tissue repair and promotes myofibroblast contraction and migration, hence ...

Renal‐vascular axis: unmasking its role in vascular endothelial growth factor‐inhibitor vascular toxicity in cancer patients

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Vascular toxicity is a growing concern in cancer patients receiving vascular endothelial growth factor inhibitor (VEGFi) therapy, posing a significant threat to patient prognosis. While the primary mechanism of VEGFi‐induced vascular toxicity is linked to redox‐sensitive reactions that disrupt vascular tone, leading to hypertension and ...

Kinetics of vasoconstrictor action of endothelins

open access: yes, 1991
Endothelin peptides (Et) induce slowly developing and long-lasting contractions of rat aortic strips with a rank order of potency (Et-1 = Et-2 > sarafotoxin S6b > Et-3) consistent with the involvement of an EtA-like receptor subtype.

Ischaemic stroke and 5‐fluorouracil or capecitabine: A systematic review and meta‐analysis of harms and a retrospective study of the WHO pharmacovigilance database

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aim Fluoropyrimidines, including 5‐fluorouracil (5‐FU) and capecitabine, are cornerstone antineoplastic agents for cancer. Case reports suggest that these drugs may be associated with an under‐recognised risk of ischaemic stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA).

A guide to the types, structures, and multifaceted functions of matrix metalloproteinases in cancer

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) orchestrate cancer progression and metastasis through proteolytic and non‐proteolytic actions. By remodeling the tumor microenvironment, enhancing growth factor availability, and modulating cell behavior, MMPs promote proliferation, migration or invasion, and epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition. Alongside extracellular
