Ventricular androgenic-anabolic steroid-related remodeling: an immunohistochemical study [PDF]
, 2017 Background: Several fatal cases of bodybuilders, following a myocardial infarction after long exposure to androgenicanabolic steroids (AAS), are reported. In recent years, evidence has emerged of cases of heart failure related to AAS consumption, with no

Pericyte actomyosin-mediated contraction at the cell-material interface can modulate the microvascular niche [PDF]
, 2009 Pericytes physically surround the capillary endothelium, contacting and communicating with associated vascular endothelial cells via cell–cell and cell–matrix contacts. Pericyte–endothelial cell interactions thus have the potential to modulate growth and

Dense Nanofibrillar Collagen–Silica Hybrids with High Strength and ECM‐Mimetic Tissue Integration
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Dense nanofibrillar collagen–silica hybrids are engineered by synchronizing collagen fibrillogenesis with silica condensation, producing printable scaffolds that unexpectedly approach native extracellular matrix organization and strength. These cell‐free constructs guide endogenous cell‐infiltration, enable localized matrix remodeling, and integrate ...

Inflammatory and angiogenic protein detection in the human vitreous : cytometric bead assay [PDF]
, 2011 Introduction. To evaluate clinical feasibility and reproducibility of cytometric bead assay (CBA) in nondiluted vitreous samples of patients with age-related macular degeneration (ARMD), diabetic macular edema (DME), and central retinal vein occlusion ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Here, a biointerface membrane engineered with site‐specific interfacial properties is developed. During implantation between gingival and bone defect, the membrane creates a pro‐osteogenic microenvironment, precisely modulates cellular activities at each biointerface, and facilitates the orchestration of complex healing events, ultimately leading to ...
