Oxidative and Inflammatory Mechanisms Induced by Intermittent Hypoxia Leading to Vascular Alterations in Rodents: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis. [PDF]

open access: yesOxid Med Cell Longev
Objectives Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) and the related intermittent hypoxia (IH) are recognized as major cardiovascular risk factors. In a previous meta‐analysis, we confirmed the impact of IH on structural and functional remodeling of vessels in rodent models of IH.

Rhodamine6G and Hœchst33342 narrow BmrA conformational spectrum for a more efficient use of ATP [PDF]

open access: yesNature Communications
Multidrug ABC transporters harness the energy of ATP binding and hydrolysis to translocate substrates out of the cell and detoxify them. While this involves a well-accepted alternating access mechanism, molecular details of this interplay are still ...

Hierarchical Poromechanical Approach to Investigate the Impact of Mechanical Loading on Human Skin Micro-Circulation. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Numer Method Biomed Eng
A hierarchical poromechanical theory was developed to model human skin, separately accounting for interstitial fluid and cell characteristic times. Implemented in FEniCSx, it was validated through laser Doppler flowmetry experiments. To ensure transparency, all data and codes are publicly available on GitHub, combining theory, numerical validation, and

Objective diagnosis of internal nasal valve collapse by four-phase rhinomanometry. [PDF]

open access: yesLaryngoscope Investig Otolaryngol, 2022
Abstract Background Internal valve collapse is a frequent cause of nasal obstruction but remains poorly understood and is sometimes treated inappropriately as a result. No functional or imaging test for the condition has been validated and the reference diagnostic technique is physical examination.

Thermal infrared imaging with LBTI's LMIRCAM and NOMIC [PDF]

open access: yesSPIE Proceedings, 2020
The Large Binocular Telescope Interferometer (LBTI) is a NASA-funded instrument of the LBT designed for high-sensitivity, high-contrast, and high-resolution infrared (1.5-13 ?m) imaging. To carry out a wide range of high-spatial resolution observations, it can combine the two AO-corrected 8.4-m apertures of the LBT in various ways including direct (non-

MiR-30a-5p Alters Epidermal Terminal Differentiation during Aging by Regulating BNIP3L/NIX-Dependent Mitophagy

open access: yesCells, 2022
Chronological aging is characterized by an alteration in the genes’ regulatory network. In human skin, epidermal keratinocytes fail to differentiate properly with aging, leading to the weakening of the epidermal function.

Synthetic injectable and porous hydrogels for the formation of skeletal muscle fibers: Novel perspectives for the acellular repair of substantial volumetric muscle loss [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Tissue Engineering
In severe skeletal muscle damage, muscle tissue regeneration process has to face the loss of resident muscle stem cells (MuSCs) and the lack of connective tissue necessary to guide the regeneration process.

Impaired microvascular function in patients with sickle cell anemia and leg ulcers improved with healing. [PDF]

open access: yesBr J Haematol
Summary Leg Ulcer (LU) pathophysiology is still not well understood in sickle cell anaemia (SCA). We hypothesised that SCA patients with LU would be characterised by lower microvascular reactivity. The aim of the present study was to compare the microcirculatory function (transcutaneous oxygen pressure (TcPO2) on the foot and laser Doppler flowmetry on
