Isolation and Culture of Primary Pericytes from Mouse

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Pericytes are essential for tissue homeostasis, functioning to regulate capillary blood flow. Dysfunctional pericytes are implicated in various pathologies, including cancer progression.

Role of pericytes in vascular morphogenesis

open access: yes, 2005
Pericytes are solitary, smooth muscle-like mural cells that invest the wall of microvessels. For a long time, the functional significance of the presence and distribution of pericytes in the microvasculature was unclear.

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Grafting purified cortical pericytes into mouse motor cortex [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Brain regeneration through stem cell transplantation studies holds the potential to enhance functional recovery of the damaged brain. Most of the positive effects fostered by transplanted stem cells are believed to be fuelled by their multipotency to ...

Lipid‐based Nano‐delivery systems as a promising strategy for the treatment of epilepsy: Current status and challenges

open access: yesEpilepsia Open, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Epilepsy is a prevalent chronic neurological disorder characterized by abnormal neuronal electrical activity. The primary treatment modality for individuals with epilepsy (PWE) is antiseizure medication (ASM). The multiple potential factors contributing to treatment resistance in epilepsy may be attributed to the inability of ASMs to

Simultaneous membrane potential recording from isolated pericytes; pericytes in contact.

open access: yes, 2016
Schematic drawings and photomicrographs of dual recording from isolated pericytes in contact (A, B, designated P-P) on a coverslip or isolated without contact (C, D, designated PxP). The black bars = 10 microns.

Photodynamic Biomimetic Nanoparticles Accelerate Tumor Vascular Normalization Initiation

open access: yesExploration, EarlyView.
Platelet‐mimetic IA@PM integrates apatinib‐driven vascular normalization with ICG‐mediated photodynamic therapy, creating a self‐amplifying vascular normalization therapy (VNT)–photodynamic therapy (PDT) cycle that accelerates the onset of the vascular normalization window and potentiates antitumor treatment.

CCL26‐Mediated Modulation of Endothelial Secretome by Hypoxia‐Induced Tumor‐Derived Exosomes Enhances Metastatic Progression in Head and Neck Cancer

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Tumor cells adapt to hypoxia by releasing hiTDExs enriched with bioactive molecules that modulate endothelial behavior and promote tumor progression. This study aimed to characterize how hypoxia‐induced HNSCC exosomes reshape the endothelial secretome and contribute to metastatic potential.

Microvascular pericytes contain muscle and nonmuscle actins

open access: yes, 2018
We have affinity-fractionated rabbit antiactin immunoglobulins (IgG) into classes that bind preferentially to either muscle or nonmuscle actins. The pools of muscle- and nonmuscle-specific actin antibodies were used in conjunction with fluorescence ...
