QUANTIFICATION OF ANGIOGENESIS ON THE RAT AORTIC RING ASSAY
Image Analysis and Stereology, 2011 Image analysis is used to quantify angiogenesis on the rat aortic ring model. This technique allows to determine: (1) the aortic ring area and factor shape; (2) the number of microvessels, the total number of branching, the maximal microvessel length and

Patterned vascularization in a directional ice‐templated scaffold of decellularized matrix
Engineering in Life Sciences, 2021 Vascularization is fundamental for large‐scale tissue engineering. Most of the current vascularization strategies including microfluidics and three‐dimensional (3D) printing aim to precisely fabricate microchannels for individual microvessels.

Regulation of brain microvessel function.
Folia Pharmacologica Japonica, 2002 The brain microvessels are formed by a specialized endothelium and regulate the movement of solutes between blood and brain. The endothelial cells are sealed together by tight junctions and play a role as the blood-brain barrier. The brain microvessels express GLUT1 as the major form of glucose transporter, aquaporin-4 as a water channel, and p ...

Cross‐Scale Hierarchical Targeted Delivery System Based on Small‐Scale Magnetic Robots
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This article reviews a cross‐scale hierarchical targeted delivery system that integrates magnetic continuum robots and magnetic microrobots. By combining rapid long‐range navigation with precise microscale targeting, the system overcomes key limitations of single‐scale approaches.

Frontiers in Neurology, 2020 Background: Cerebral small vessel disease is the most common cause of subcortical vascular dementia (SVaD). Unfortunately, conventional imaging techniques do not always demonstrate the microvascular pathology that is associated with small vessel disease.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.The role of TNFα in the process of renal allograft interstitial fibrosis is complex and multifaceted. As it can promote renal allograft interstitial fibrosis by inducing mitochondrial dysfunction and EndMT, and also mediating compensatory mitophagy through the NEDD4–HIF‐1α–BNIP3 pathway, which clears damaged mitochondria and inhibits EndMT, thereby ...

Regional Heterogeneity of Cerebral Microvessels and Brain Susceptibility to Oxidative Stress. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The hippocampus is one of the earliest and most affected regions in Alzheimer's disease (AD), followed by the cortex while the cerebellum is largely spared. Importantly, endothelial dysfunction is a common feature of cerebral blood vessels in AD. In this

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study presents a single‐cell atlas of pseudomyxoma peritonei spanning primary and paired metastatic lesions. Distinct epithelial substates, stromal remodeling, immune exclusion, lipid metabolic reprogramming, and a candidate angiogenic network were identified in metastatic lesions.

Molecules, 2019 Raman spectra of human skin obtained by laser excitation have been used to non-invasively detect blood glucose. In previous reports, however, Raman spectra thus obtained were mainly derived from the epidermis and interstitial fluid as a result of the ...
