The Pathogenic Roles of Local Vitamin D Metabolism Defect in Valve Inflammation and Calcification
Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study identifies the valvular interstitial cell populations responsible for valvular calcification induced by hyperphosphatemia and likely aging, uncovers local vitamin D metabolism defect‐induced inflammation as a critical pathogenic factor of calcific aortic valve disease, and highlights active vitamin D and ERK inhibitor as potential preventive

Analysis of chronic rejection and obliterative arteriopathy: Possible contributions of donor antigen-presenting cells and lymphatic disruption [PDF]
, 1997 Sequential analysis of changes that lead to chronic rejection was undertaken in an animal model of chronic rejection and obliterative arteriopathy. Brown Norway rats are pretreated with a Lewis bone marrow infusion or a Lewis orthotopic liver allograft ...

Histochemical localization of 5'-nucleotidase in the lymphatic endothelium.
ACTA HISTOCHEMICA ET CYTOCHEMICA, 1990 Histochemical localization of 5′-nucleotidase (5′-Nase) in the lymphatic endothelium of rat stomach was studied by combined light and electron microscopy. Lymphatic capillaries and blood capillaries were distinguished histochemically on cryostat sections using 5′-Nase-alkaline phosphatase double staining.The distribution of lead-demonstrated 5′-Nase ...

Life Factors and Melanoma: From the Macroscopic State to the Molecular Mechanism
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Melanoma, an aggressive skin cancer, arises from dynamic interactions between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle factors. This review explores how age, gender, obesity, diet, exercise, smoking, alcohol, UV exposure, circadian rhythms, and medications influence melanoma risk and progression.

VEGF-C/VEGFR-3 and PDGF-B/PDGFR-b pathways in embryonic lymphangiogenesis [PDF]
, 2008 The circulatory system comprises the blood vascular system and the lymphatic vascular system. These two systems function in parallel. Blood vessels form a closed system that delivers oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and removes waste products from the

Cationic Peptoids for Systemic In Vivo Cartilage‐Targeting
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Systemically‐dosed Cy5‐labeled cationic peptoid probe (NlysO)7 (yellow) binds to the cartilage's glycosaminoglycan content in vivo across the entire body of a neonatal mouse imaged by light sheet fluorescence microscopy, revealing fluorescence uptake in generic cartilage as well as the developing and ossifying bones.
