A Role for the Endothelium in Vascular Calcification [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2013
Rationale: Vascular calcification is a regulated process that involves osteoprogenitor cells and frequently complicates common vascular disease, such as atherosclerosis and diabetic vasculopathy. However, it is not clear whether the vascular endothelium has a role in contributing osteoprogenitor ...

Spatial biology in cancer epigenetics

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Spatial epigenomics combines molecular profiling with tissue architecture to reveal how gene regulation is organized within intact tissues. In cancer, these technologies uncover the mechanisms driving tumor heterogeneity and microenvironmental interactions, opening new opportunities for biomarker discovery and precision medicine.

Effects of chronic and acute consumption of fruit- and vegetable-puree-based drinks on vasodilation, risk factors for CVD and the response as a result of the eNOS G298T polymorphism [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The average UK adult consumes less than three portions of fruit and vegetables daily, despite evidence to suggest that consuming five portions daily could help prevent chronic diseases. It is recommended that fruit juice should only count as one of these

Vascular Endothelium in Neonatal Sepsis: Basic Mechanisms and Translational Opportunities

open access: yesFrontiers in Pediatrics, 2019
Neonatal sepsis remains a major health issue worldwide, especially for low-birth weight and premature infants, with a high risk of death and devastating sequelae.

Mechanosensing by Vascular Endothelium

open access: yesAnnual Review of Physiology
Mechanical forces influence different cell types in our bodies. Among the earliest forces experienced in mammals is blood movement in the vascular system. Blood flow starts at the embryonic stage and ceases when the heart stops. Blood flow exposes endothelial cells (ECs) that line all blood vessels to hemodynamic forces.

Predictive and prognostic biomarkers of Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin therapy failure in bladder cancer patients: A systematic review

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
High‐risk bladder cancer is typically treated with Bacillus Calmette‐Guérin (BCG), but 30–40% of patients relapse. No FDA‐ or CE‐approved biomarkers currently predict or prognosticate BCG failure. We systematically reviewed the literature and identified 72 eligible studies, revealing several promising biomarkers associated with BCG treatment response ...

Different Prostanoids Are Involved in Bradykinin-Induced Endothelium-Dependent and -Independent Vasoconstriction in Rat Mesenteric Resistance Arteries

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2004
Mechanisms underlying bradykinin-induced vasoconstriction were investigated in rat perfused mesenteric vascular beds with active tone. In preparations with intact endothelium, bolus injections of bradykinin (1 to 1,000 pmol) dose-dependently produced ...

Extracellular matrix remodeling and immune reprogramming drive residual tumor progression of liver cancer after incomplete microwave ablation

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Incomplete microwave ablation (iMWA) of liver cancer triggers a biphasic progression in residual tumors. At Day 3, the microenvironment is characterized by acute inflammatory responses and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. By Day 14, a profound shift occurs toward oncogenic signal transduction and immunosuppression, marked by macrophage ...

Effects of Oxygen on Perioperative Vascular Function: A Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Vascular dysfunction contributes to postoperative organ injury. Exposure to high concentrations of oxygen during surgery is common and may impair vascular function.

Reproducibility and validity of a novel invasive method of assessing peripheral microvascular vasomotor function.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
In healthy arteries, blood flow is regulated by microvascular tone assessed by changes in blood flow volume and vascular resistance to endothelium-dependent and -independent vasodilators.
