Maintenance of GLUT4 expression in smooth muscle prevents hypertension‐induced changes in vascular reactivity [PDF]
, 2015 Previous studies have shown that expression of GLUT4 is decreased in arterial smooth muscle of hypertensive rats and mice and that total body overexpression of GLUT4 in mice prevents enhanced arterial reactivity in hypertension.

Shape Memory Polymer‐Based Hook‐and‐Loop Fastener for Robust Bonding and on‐Demand Easy Separation
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A 3D shape memory polymer‐based hook‐and‐loop fastener, fabricated using projection microstereolithography and molding, offers tunable bonding strength through temperature control. When heated from 25 to 70 °C, the fastener softens and deforms easily, reducing bonding strength by 20‐fold for on‐demand easy separation.

3D Bioprinting of Thick Adipose Tissues with Integrated Vascular Hierarchies
Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 35, Issue 12, March 18, 2025.An advanced 3D bioprinting technique is used here to create thick adipose tissues with a central, vessel and extensive branching. The construct is made using alginate, gelatin and collagen‐based bioinks. Flow through the complex vessel network is demonstrated as well as its successful integration with a femoral artery following implantation in a rat ...

Airway Smooth Muscle and Asthma
Allergology International, 2006 The airway smooth muscle is the key determinant of airway narrowing in asthma but its function in the absence of disease is unknown. Evidence for an intrinsic abnormality in the muscle in asthma is only just emerging. The airway smooth muscle is not merely a contractile cell, but also one which determines the composition of, and interacts with the ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Transarterial Chemoembolization (TACE) may aggravate liver fibrosis. In this study, a novel oral targeting nanoemulsion is fabricated to enhance the therapeutic effect of antifibrotic drug‐pirfenidone (PFD) on fibrosis after TACE. Studies have shown that PFD nanoemulsion can enhance the oral liver targeting effect of PFD, and effectively improve the ...

Muscarinic M2 acetylcholine receptor distribution in the guinea-pig gastrointestinal tract [PDF]
, 2006 In the enteric nervous system, acetylcholine is the most common neurotransmitter to induce gastrointestinal smooth muscle contractions. Cholinergic signaling is mediated by muscarinic acetylcholine receptors on the surface of smooth muscle cells.
