Modeling Cardiac Ischemia [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2006 Abstract: Myocardial ischemia is one of the main causes of sudden cardiac death, with 80% of victims suffering from coronary heart disease. In acute myocardial ischemia, the obstruction of coronary flow leads to the interruption of oxygen flow, glucose, and washout in the affected tissue.

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels
FEBS 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 ...

Variability of the Heart Rhythm as an Additional Marker for Determining Vegetative Functions in Patients with Chronic Cerebral Ischemia [PDF]
, 2018 Aim. Practical cardiology is in constant search for non-invasive vascular risk markers. Heart rhythm reflects the body\u27s response to various stimuli of the external and internal environment. Heart rate variability (HRV) has a prognostic and diagnostic

HSP70 governs permeability and mechanotransduction in primary human endothelial cells
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.HSP70 chemical inhibition reduces endothelial cell proliferation and increases permeability, the latter supported by normal interendothelial junctional protein distribution. HSP70 also plays a role in shear stress response, a hemodynamic force naturally present in blood vessels and correlated with vessel protection.

Function of BID - a molecule of the bcl-2 family - in ischemic cell death in the brain [PDF]
, 2002 Mitochondrial mechanisms, particularly the release of cytochrome c, play a role in the death of nerve and glial cells in cerebral ischemia. We have currently investigated whether BID, a proapoptotic molecule of the bcl-2 family and promoter of the ...

Thrombolytic proteins profiling: High‐throughput activity, selectivity, and resistance assays
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.We present optimized biochemical protocols for evaluating thrombolytic proteins, enabling rapid and robust screening of enzymatic activity, inhibition resistance, and fibrin affinity, stimulation, and selectivity. The outcome translates to key clinical indicators such as biological half‐life and bleeding risk. These assays streamline the development of
