Constructing a Novel Three-Dimensional Biomimetic Corneal Endothelium Graft by Culturing Corneal Endothelium Cells on Compressed Collagen Gels

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2018
Background: Endothelium allotransplantation is the primary treatment for corneal decompensation. The worldwide shortage of donor corneal tissue has led to increasing pressure to seek an alternative for surgical restoration of corneal endothelium ...

Effects of NO synthase inhibitors on the synovial microcirculation in the mouse knee joint [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Production of nitric oxide by the inducible NO synthase (iNOS) is known to be enhanced in chronic joint inflammation and osteoarthritis as well as aseptic loosening of joint prostheses.

Function‐driven design of a surrogate interleukin‐2 receptor ligand

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Interleukin (IL)‐2 signaling can be achieved and precisely fine‐tuned through the affinity, distance, and orientation of the heterodimeric receptors with their ligands. We designed a biased IL‐2 surrogate ligand that selectively promotes effector T and natural killer cell activation and differentiation. Interleukin (IL) receptors play a pivotal role in

PAR1 Agonists Stimulate APC-Like Endothelial Cytoprotection and Confer Resistance to Thromboinflammatory Injury [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Stimulation of protease-activated receptor 1 (PAR1) on endothelium by activated protein C (APC) is protective in several animal models of disease, and APC has been used clinically in severe sepsis and wound healing.

Arterial pathology in canine mucopolysaccharidosis-I and response to therapy. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Mucopolysaccharidosis-I (MPS-I) is an inherited deficiency of α-L-iduronidase (IdU) that causes lysosomal accumulation of glycosaminoglycans (GAG) in a variety of parenchymal cell types and connective tissues.

The artificial endothelium [PDF]

open access: yesOrganogenesis, 2011
As the world of critical care medicine advances, extracorporeal therapies (ECC) have become commonplace in the management of the high risk intensive care patient. ECC encompasses a wide variety of technologies from hemodialysis, continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) and plasmapheresis, to cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), extracorporeal life support (

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

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

Haemogenic endocardium contributes to transient definitive haematopoiesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Haematopoietic cells arise from spatiotemporally restricted domains in the developing embryo. Although studies of non-mammalian animal and in vitro embryonic stem cell models suggest a close relationship among cardiac, endocardial and haematopoietic ...
