Atrial Natriuretic Peptide: Binding and Cyclic GMP Response in Cultured Vascular SmoothMuscle Cells From Spontaneously Hypertensive Rats [PDF]
, 2017 Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is vasodilatory and natriuretic, but whereas increased plasma ANP levels occur in spontaneously hypertensive rats, their elevated vascular resistance suggests inappropriate target tissue responsiveness to ANP.

Disruption of the Sarcoglycan–Sarcospan Complex in Vascular Smooth Muscle A Novel Mechanism for Cardiomyopathy and Muscular Dystrophy [PDF]
To investigate mechanisms in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy associated with mutations of the dystrophin–glycoprotein complex, we analyzed genetically engineered mice deficient for either α-sarcoglycan (Sgca) or δ-sarcoglycan (Sgcd).

Biphasic Granular Bioinks for Biofabrication of High Cell Density Constructs for Dermal Regeneration
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study introduces a biphasic granular bioink (µInk) that enables 3D bioprinting of high cell density constructs for dermal regeneration. The bioink promotes cell proliferation, ECM deposition, and neovascularization, leading to tissue integration and reduced scar formation in vivo.
