Integrating the inputs that shape pancreatic islet hormone release. [PDF]

, 2019
The pancreatic islet is a complex mini organ composed of a variety of endocrine cells and their support cells, which together tightly control blood glucose homeostasis.

The tunica adventitia of human arteries and veins as a source of mesenchymal stem cells [PDF]

, 2011
We previously demonstrated that human pericytes, which encircle capillaries and microvessels, give rise in culture to genuine mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). This raised the question as to whether all MSC are derived from pericytes.

Circular RNA PTPN4 Contributes to Blood‐Brain Barrier Disruption during Early Epileptogenesis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Epileptic condition induces CircPTPN4 upregulation, which promotes ECE‐1 expression through competitive sequestration of miR‐145a‐5p. The elevated ECE‐1 catalyzes the ET‐1 production, leading to p38/MAPK pathway activation and subsequent downregulation of tight junction protein expression. This cascade results in increased BBB permeability and enhanced

Pericytes on the move [PDF]

Pflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2013
Pericytes were originally discovered more than100 years ago as contractile cells surrounding the endothelial cells of small blood vessels. Anatomists have later on strictly defined pericytes as cells sharing a basal membrane with the endothelium.

NNMT Orchestrates Metabolic‐Epigenetic Reprogramming to Drive Macrophage‐Myofibroblast Transition in Hypertrophic Scarring

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In macrophage‐myofibroblast transition, upregulated NNMT depletes S‐Adenosylmethionine‌ (SAM) and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NAD+), thereby triggering epigenetic reprogramming via Histone H3 Lysine 27 acetylation (H3K27ac) accumulation at the promoter region of master transcription factor Prrx1.

Interactions between Beta-Amyloid and Pericytes in Alzheimer’s Disease

Frontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is an age-related progressive neurodegenerative disorder characterized by aberrant amyloid precursor protein (APP) cleavage, pathological aggregations of beta-amyloid (Aβ) that make up Aβ plaques and hyperphosphorylation of Tau ...

Occlusion of retinal capillaries caused by glial cell proliferation in chronic ocular inflammation [PDF]

, 2015
The inner blood-retinal barrier is a gliovascular unit in which glial cells surround capillary endothelial cells and regulate retinal capillaries by paracrine interactions.
