Biomimetic Glycosaminoglycan‐Analog Hydrogel for Improved Embolization of Aneurysms: Environment‐Selective Swelling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Biomimetic glycosaminoglycan analog hydrogels exhibit suitable and robust mechanical properties, as well as hemocompatibility and biocompatibility, making them ideal for the embolization of intracranial aneurysms. Notably, the hydrogel's environment‐selective swelling properties enable complete blockage of the aneurysm cavity while preventing ...

Silicon Nanowire Mats Enable Advanced Bioelectrical Recordings in Primary DRG Cell Cultures

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
SiNW mat‐based MEA (NW_MEA) enables continuous intracellular recordings from neurons in primary rat DRG cell cultures, identifying C‐fiber nociceptors. Supported by an astrocyte feeder layer, SiNW mat promotes DRG neuron and glial cell growth, preserving in vivo‐like cell characteristics and allowing drug‐modulated activity monitoring.

P62 DAPAGLIFLOZIN PRESERVES RENAL VASODILATING CAPACITY IN HYPERTENSIVE PATIENTS WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES

open access: yesArtery Research, 2018
Aim: Mechanisms through which SGLT-2 inhibitors achieve cardiovascular and renal protection are still unknown. We investigated whether dapagliflozin modulates Na and water balance and systemic and renal vascular parameters like endothelial function ...

Disturbances of sodium in critically ill adult neurologic patients: A clinical review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Disorders of sodium and water balance are common in critically ill adult neurologic patients. Normal aspects of sodium and water regulation are reviewed. The etiology of possible causes of sodium disturbance is discussed in both the general inpatient and

Effects of salt and protein intake on polyuria in V2RA-treated ADPKD patients [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
BACKGROUND: The only treatment proven to be renoprotective in Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) is a vasopressin V2-receptor antagonist (V2RA). However, aquaresis-associated side effects limit tolerability. We investigated whether salt

Bilirubin Targeting WNK1 to Alleviate NLRP3‐Mediated Neuroinflammation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
At physiological concentrations, bilirubin binds to the kinase domain of WNK1, thereby augmenting its activity and facilitating the phosphorylation of downstream SPAK/OSR1. This phosphorylation inhibits KCC2 activity, leading to elevate intracellular chloride levels in neurons.

Tracheal epithelium cell volume responses to hyperosmolar, isosmolar and hypoosmolar solutions: relation to epithelium-derived relaxing factor (EpDRF) effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2013
In asthmatic patients, inhalation of hyperosmolar saline or D-mannitol (D-M) elicits bronchoconstriction, but in healthy subjects exercise causes bronchodilation. Hyperventilation causes drying of airway surface liquid (ASL) and increases its osmolarity.
