RBMS1 Contributes to Early Arteriovenous Fistula Neointimal Remodeling Through Modulation of VSMC Phenotypic Responses

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Postoperative arteriovenous fistulas exhibit increased RBMS1 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In experimental AVFs, RBMS1 overexpression aggravates, whereas deletion attenuates, neointimal hyperplasia. RBMS1 binds MPZL1 mRNA and promotes exon 5 skipping to generate MPZL1‐Δ5, which interacts with G3BP1 to activate AKT, driving VSMC proliferation,

Repeated instillations of bleomycin in male mice induce a perivascular remodeling at distance of fibrotic areas in the context of progressive pulmonary fibrosis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
We established a model of progressive pulmonary fibrosis via repeated intratracheal instillation (ITI) of leomycin (BLM) (A). Perivascular remodeling was observed in areas distant from the fibrotic areas and lesions induced by repeated ITI of BLM simulate those observed in IPF patients (B). Thus, this model has the capacity to track and investigate the

Silk Fibroin for Cardiovascular Medical Devices: Review of Material Properties, Applications, and Clinical Potential

Advanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
Silk fibroin is an attractive natural biomaterial that can be engineered into diverse cardiovascular constructs, including vascular grafts, cardiac patches, heart valves, and stent coatings. Its tunable biological and mechanical properties have driven substantial preclinical progress; however, widespread clinical translation in cardiovascular ...

Cardiac morphological and morphometric analysis of Ardea alba

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Ardea alba (Linnaeus, 1758) is a widely distributed heron species whose cardiovascular morphology remains poorly described. This study aimed to characterize the cardiac morphology and morphometry of adult A. alba. Ten specimens were analyzed using radiographic, morphometric, histological, scanning electron microscopy, and three‐dimensional ...
