Pressure‐Assisted Drug Delivery Using High‐Pressure Balloon Platform Improves Vascular Drug Penetration and Anti‐Restenotic Effects

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A dual‐layer high‐pressure drug‐coated balloon (HP@DCB) increased balloon‐wall contact and promoted deeper paclitaxel (PTX) penetration than a conventional noncompliant DCB. In in vivo study, HP@DCB treatment improved luminal patency and reduced neointimal hyperplasia, supporting pressure‐assisted drug delivery as a promising strategy for enhancing the

Self‐Sealing Microneedles Improve Precision and Reduce Reflux in Subretinal Cell Transplantation

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Ultrafine 49G microneedles enable subretinal delivery of induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived retinal pigment epithelial cells through a 50 µm outer diameter tip. Compared with conventional 38G microcannulas, these microneedles reduce cell suspension reflux in a rabbit model, highlighting the potential of microinvasive delivery instruments to improve ...

Optical Coherence Tomography-Guided vs. Angiography-Guided Percutaneous Coronary Intervention for Complex Coronary Lesions: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Diagnostics
Background: Despite advances in coronary artery disease (CAD) treatment, challenges persist, particularly in complex lesions. While percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is widely used, its outcomes can be affected by complications like restenosis ...

GHRHR Deficiency Enhances Retinal Ganglion Cell Survival and Visual Functions in Experimental Glaucoma by Inhibiting Ferroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Glaucoma, a major cause of blindness, involves retinal ganglion cell (RGC) degeneration. This study shows growth hormone‐releasing hormone receptor (GHRHR) deficiency preserves RGC survival and restores vision, unlike activation which only aids survival.

Paracentral acute middle maculopathy following coronary angiography

American Journal of Ophthalmology Case Reports, 2022
Purpose: To describe a case of paracentral acute middle maculopathy (PAMM) after coronary angiography. Observations: A 65-year-old female patient exhibited a dense central scotoma 5 hrs after coronary angiography. She presented the next day to the retina

Microglial TSPAN4‐Dependent Migrasomes Promote Pathological Retinal Neovascularization via Immune‐Vascular Crosstalk

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Combined high‐glucose and hypoxic stress switches microglia into a TSPAN4‐dependent migrasome‐producing state. These migrasomes deliver pro‐angiogenic signals to endothelial cells, activating HIF‐1α/VEGF signaling, disrupting vascular junctions, and fueling pathological neovascularization. This work uncovers migrasome‐mediated immune‐vascular crosstalk

A Hybrid Hierarchical Framework for Quantifying Mechanical Markers in Atherosclerotic Disease Progression: A New Approach for Diagnosis and Risk Assessment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The mechanobiological basis of atherosclerotic progression and its contribution to spatial and temporal heterogeneity remain incompletely understood. Spatially resolved AFM measurements revealed that plaque formation and distinct regions (cap fibrosis, intimal fibrosis, and lipid‐rich core) exhibit heterogeneous elastic modulus and viscoelastic ...

Lactate Homeostasis Disruption Potentiates TACE‐Immunotherapy in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Lactate homeostasis is disrupted through spatially coordinated extracellular neutralization and intracellular acidification, triggering calcium overload, mitochondrial dysfunction, and immunogenic cell death. This metabolic reprogramming alleviates the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment and enhances immune checkpoint blockade, providing a ...
