Up-regulation of endothelin type B receptors in the human internal mammary artery in culture is dependent on protein kinase C and mitogen-activated kinase signaling pathways

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2008
Background Up-regulation of vascular endothelin type B (ETB) receptors is implicated in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular disease. Culture of intact arteries has been shown to induce similar receptor alterations and has therefore been suggested as a ...

Left Internal Mammary Artery Injury After Pacemaker Lead Implant—Case Report and Review of Literature

Pacing and Clinical Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We hereby report a case of a 75‐year‐old patient who developed a large left‐sided hemopneumothorax after a routine dual‐chamber pacemaker insertion. The rare complication was caused by the pacing lead injuring the left internal mammary artery (LIMA) after perforating the right ventricle.

Human breast milk lipoproteins: A preliminary biochemical characterization

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Human breast milk (BM) is an essential fluid for infant development, with a dynamic composition adapted to the infant's needs. It contains bioactive lipids like cholesterol, typically transported by lactosomes, extracellular vesicles, and milk fat globules. However, classic cholesterol‐carrying lipoproteins have not been described in BM.
