Randomized preclinical study of machine perfusion in vascularized composite allografts

open access: yesBJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This study was designed to identify the optimum machine perfusion parameters for preservation of limbs before transplantation, and determine whether this was better than cold storage. Normothermic machine perfusion at a pressure of 70 mmHg (NMP‐70) provided superior preservation to cold storage after transplantation.

Low‐Intensity Ultrasound‐Triggered Microbubble Cavitation Attenuates Diabetic Kidney Injury Partially by Reversing Endothelial Dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yesAdvanced science
Non‐invasive low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound ‐triggered cavitation of clinically approved diagnostic‐grade microbubbles delivers favorable mechanical stimuli to renal microvasculature. This intervention restores renal microvascular homeostasis, alleviates DKD‐associated histological and functional damage, and suppresses inflammatory and fibrotic ...

Inflammatory mediators act at renal pericytes to elicit contraction of vasa recta and reduce pericyte density along the kidney medullary vascular network

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
Introduction: Regardless of initiating cause, renal injury promotes a potent pro-inflammatory environment in the outer medulla and a concomitant sustained decrease in medullary blood flow (MBF).

Biomaterials for Bioprinting Microvasculature

open access: yesChemical Reviews, 2020
Microvasculature functions at the tissue and cell level, regulating local mass exchange of oxygen and nutrient-rich blood. While there has been considerable success in the biofabrication of large- and small-vessel replacements, functional microvasculature has been particularly challenging to engineer due to its size and complexity.

Effects of Lower Limb Revascularization on the Microcirculation of the Foot: A Retrospective Cohort Study

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2022
Background: Current assessment standards in chronic limb-threatening ischemia (CLTI) focus on macrovascular function while neglecting the microcirculation.

Metastatic niche shaped by host factors influences disseminated cancer cell fate

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Metastasis is shaped not only by cancer cells but also by the environments they encounter. This review explores how factors such as aging, diet, the microbiome, lifestyle, and environmental exposures remodel organ‐specific niches in the lung, liver, bone, and brain, influencing where metastatic cells survive, remain dormant, or grow, and ultimately ...

Nitric oxide‐mediated cutaneous microvascular function is not altered in middle‐aged‐to‐older adults following mild SARS‐CoV‐2 infection: A pilot study

open access: yesPhysiological Reports, 2023
We tested the hypothesis that post‐COVID‐19 adults (PC) would have impaired cutaneous nitric oxide (NO)‐mediated vasodilation compared to controls (CON).

Endothelial Cell Proteins as Biomarkers in Susac Syndrome

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Susac syndrome (SS) is a rare CD8+ T cell–mediated microangiopathy affecting the brain, retina, and auditory labyrinth. Endothelial injury is thought to be a central mechanism; however, no circulating disease biomarkers are known. We performed targeted proteomic profiling to identify circulating endothelial‐associated proteins as ...

In vitro systems to study endothelial/pericyte cell interactions

open access: yesVascular Biology, 2023
The vasculature is crucial for tissue development and survival, and the stability of blood vessels to perform these functions relies on the interplay between endothelial cells (ECs) and mural cells.

Microfluidic Nano‐Assembly of Red‐Blood‐Cell (RBC) Lipids and Components for Engineering Extracellular Vesicles

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Engineered red blood cell‐derived extracellular vesicles (eRBCEVs) are synthesized via controlled microfluidic assembly from native RBC lipids, enabling tunable encapsulation of proteins, nucleic acids, nanoparticles, and viral vectors. The platform demonstrates reproducible nanoscale architecture, preserved membrane composition, and functional cargo ...
