Comparison of vascular remodeling between a bioresorbable poly-L-lactic acid scaffold and a bare metal stent: a 6-month angiography and intravascular ultrasound analysis in porcine iliac arteries [PDF]
OrganogenesisAnimal experimental studies involving the Igaki-Tamai stent (ITS), a bioresorbable poly-l-lactic acid scaffold, in peripheral arteries are limited, and existing studies evaluated only short-term (3-month) outcomes.

A novel tissue-engineered stent graft combining decellularized scaffold and bioresorbable stent: a pilot feasibility study in a porcine model [PDF]
OrganogenesisEndovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is a widely accepted treatment for aortic pathologies owing to its minimally invasive nature. However, long-term complications, such as stent graft migration and infection, remain unresolved, primarily due to the ...

Cold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Medicine, 2017 The prostate is a male exocrine gland that secretes components of the seminal fluid. In men, prostate tumors are one of the most prevalent cancers. Studies on the development of the prostate have given a better understanding of the processes and genes that are important in the formation of this organ and have provided insights into the mechanisms of ...

Cells with Many Talents: Lymphatic Endothelial Cells in the Brain Meninges
Cells, 2021 The lymphatic system serves key functions in maintaining fluid homeostasis, the uptake of dietary fats in the small intestine, and the trafficking of immune cells. Almost all vascularized peripheral tissues and organs contain lymphatic vessels. The brain
