Atrial natriuretic peptide counteracts aldosterone secretion by preventing acute angiotensin II‐induced cAMP signalling

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Aldosterone plays a key role in blood pressure and volume regulation. Enhanced aldosterone secretion contributes to cardiovascular and renal diseases. Therefore, inhibitors of aldosterone receptors and synthase are essential drugs for the treatment of hypertension and heart failure.

The discovery and development of ensifentrine: A novel inhaled dual PDE3/4 inhibitor having ‘bifunctional’ bronchodilator and anti‐inflammatory activity

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ensifentrine (formerly called RPL 554) is a novel, first in class, inhaled bifunctional dual PDE3/4 inhibitor for the treatment of chronic respiratory diseases. Ensifentrine exhibits both bronchodilation via PDE3 inhibition and anti‐inflammatory activity via PDE4 inhibition.

Computing Skinning Weights via Convex Duality

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We present an alternate optimization method to compute bounded biharmonic skinning weights. Our method relies on a dual formulation, which can be optimized with a nonnegative linear least squares setup. Abstract We study the problem of optimising for skinning weights through the lens of convex duality.

SDFs from Unoriented Point Clouds using Neural Variational Heat Distances

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from unoriented point clouds. We first compute a small time step of heat flow (middle) and then use its gradient directions to solve for a neural SDF (right). Abstract We propose a novel variational approach for computing neural Signed Distance Fields (SDF) from ...

Controllable Intrinsic Surface Pattern Generation Using Slime Mold Simulations

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Surface‐based pattern simulations have proven valuable for texture design and scientific visualization, but existing methods face several limitations. Most simulations either target a narrow range of pattern types (e.g. spots, branching) or support a broad range of patterns at the cost of time‐consuming parameter tuning.
