The Vascular Function of Resistance Arteries Depends on NADPH Oxidase 4 and Is Exacerbated by Perivascular Adipose Tissue

open access: yesAntioxidants
The NADPH oxidase NOX4 that releases H2O2 can mediate vasoprotective mechanisms under pathophysiological conditions in conductive arteries. However, the role of NOX4 in resistance arteries and in perivascular adipose tissue is not well understood.

Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 Virus Alters Expression of Endothelial Factors in Pulmonary Vascular Endothelium in Rats

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Influenza virus infection may cause endothelial activation and dysfunction. However, it is still not known to what extent the influenza virus can dysregulate the expression of various endothelial proteins. The aim of the study is to identify the level of

Microbiome‐blood–brain barrier interactions in aging — mechanisms and therapeutic potential

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Aging reshapes the gut microbiome (↓SCFA‐producing commensals; ↑pro‐inflammatory outputs), shifting circulating metabolites (↓SCFAs; ↑LPS, ↑TMAO, ↑PAA) that act at the BBB to increase nonspecific transcytosis, alter transport, and promote astrocyte reactivity, heightening brain vulnerability.

Transcriptional regulation of endothelial KLF2 in vascular development

open access: yes, 2023
The development of a functional vascular system is critically dependent on shear stress, a hemodynamic force exerted onto the vascular endothelium by flowing blood.

NADPH Oxidase 4: Crucial for Endothelial Function under Hypoxia—Complementing Prostacyclin

open access: yesAntioxidants
Aim: The primary endothelial NADPH oxidase isoform 4 (NOX4) is notably induced during hypoxia, with emerging evidence suggesting its vasoprotective role through H2O2 production. Therefore, we aimed to elucidate NOX4′s significance in endothelial function

Regeneration of the Endothelium in Vascular Injury [PDF]

open access: yesCardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 2010
The endothelium mediates relaxations (dilatations) of the underlying vascular smooth muscle cells. The endothelium-dependent relaxations are due to the release of non-prostanoid vasodilator substances. The best characterized endothelium-derived relaxing factor (EDRF) is nitric oxide (NO).

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Cytoprotective pathways in the vascular endothelium. Do they represent a viable therapeutic target? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The vascular endothelium is a critical interface, which separates the organs from the blood and its contents. The endothelium has a wide variety of functions and maintenance of endothelial homeostasis is a multi-dimensional active process, disruption of ...
