Targeted Therapies for Slow-Flow Vascular Malformations. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Advances in genetic sequencing technologies have enabled the identification of key activating somatic variants in cellular signalling pathways involved in the pathogenesis of vascular malformations. Given that these genetic variants are also implicated in the pathogenesis of several cancers, the repurposing of targeted therapies developed in ...

Exceptional aggressiveness of cerebral cavernous malformation disease associated with PDCD10 mutations. [PDF]
PurposeThe phenotypic manifestations of cerebral cavernous malformation disease caused by rare PDCD10 mutations have not been systematically examined, and a mechanistic link to Rho kinase-mediated hyperpermeability, a potential therapeutic target, has ...

Identification of the Kelch family protein Nd1-L as a novel molecular interactor of KRIT1.
Loss-of-function mutations of the KRIT1 gene (CCM1) have been associated with the Cerebral Cavernous Malformation (CCM) disease, which is characterized by serious alterations of brain capillary architecture.

A Case Report and Overview of Familial Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Pathogenesis in an Adult Patient [PDF]
OBJECTIVE We present a case of a 39 year-old woman who presented with a solitary cavernous malformation hemorrhage without any other lesions, and subsequently presented several months later with a new hemorrhage from a de novo lesion.

VEGF signalling enhances lesion burden in KRIT1 deficient mice [PDF]
AbstractThe exact molecular mechanisms underlying CCM pathogenesis remain a complicated and controversial topic. Our previous work illustrated an important VEGF signalling loop in KRIT1 depleted endothelial cells. As VEGF is a major mediator of many vascular pathologies, we asked whether the increased VEGF signalling downstream of KRIT1 depletion was ...

microRNA-Mediated Regulation of Oxidative Stress in Cardiovascular Diseases. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are the leading cause of mortality globally, often linked to oxidative stress. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged as significant regulators of oxidative stress within the cardiovascular system. Objective This review examines the complex relationship between miRNAs and oxidative stress, clarifying their ...
