Improvement of Neurological Function in Rats with Ischemic Stroke by Adipose-derived Pericytes

open access: yesCell Transplantation, 2020
Pericytes possess high multipotent features and cell plasticity, and produce angiogenic and neurotrophic factors that indicate their high regenerative potential.

Protective effects of inhibiting pericyte ferroptosis on pulmonary vascular barrier function in septic rats

open access: yes陆军军医大学学报, 2022
Objective To investigate the role of pericyte ferroptosis in the injury of pulmonary vascular barrier in septic rats and identify the protective effect of ferrostatin-1 (Fer-1), a ferroptosis inhibitor, on pulmonary vascular barrier function.

An Intact Kidney Slice Model to Investigate Vasa Recta Properties and Function in situ [PDF]

open access: yes
Background: Medullary blood flow is via vasa recta capillaries, which possess contractile pericytes. In vitro studies using isolated descending vasa recta show that pericytes can constrict/dilate descending vasa recta when vasoactive substances are ...

Calcium Signalling in Pericytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Vascular Research, 2014
Recent advances in pericyte research have contributed to our understanding of the physiology and pathophysiology of microvessels. The microvasculature consists of arteriolar and venular networks located upstream and downstream of the capillaries.

Apelin Protects Primary Rat Retinal Pericytes from Chemical Hypoxia-Induced Apoptosis

open access: yesJournal of Ophthalmology, 2015
Pericytes are a population of cells that participate in normal vessel architecture and regulate permeability. Apelin, as the endogenous ligand of G protein-coupled receptor APJ, participates in a number of physiological and pathological processes.

Age and diabetes related changes of the retinal capillaries: an ultrastructural and immunohistochemical study [PDF]

open access: yes
Normal human aging and diabetes are associated with a gradual decrease of cerebral flow in the brain with changes in vascular architecture. Thickening of the capillary basement membrane and microvascular fibrosis are evident in the central nervous system

Long‐term hippocampal alterations and cognitive impairment in a murine model of surgical sepsis

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Using a mouse model of surgical sepsis, we tested long‐term memory and analyzed the transcriptome of single cells isolated from the hippocampus. Survivor mice showed worse memory, loss of certain brain cell subpopulations, and abnormal immune cell activity—suggesting that post‐sepsis brain alterations may be linked to cognitive deficits.

Pericyte Plasticity in the Brain [PDF]

open access: yesNeuroscience Bulletin, 2018
Cerebral pericytes are perivascular cells that stabilize blood vessels. Little is known about the plasticity of pericytes in the adult brain in vivo. Recently, using state-of-the-art technologies, including two-photon microscopy in combination with sophisticated Cre/loxP in vivo tracing techniques, a novel role of pericytes was revealed in vascular ...

Infusible Extracellular Matrix Biomaterial Enhances Cell‐Specific Pro‐Repair Responses Following Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We measure the cell‐specific responses of administering infusible ECM (iECM) in acute myocardial infarction (MI) across multiple timepoints. Using single‐nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, we measure macrophage activation, fibroblast remodeling, increased vascular development, lymphangiogenesis, cardioprotection, and neurogenesis ...

Pericytes in castration-resistant prostate cancer associated with disease progression and immunotherapy response: insights from single-cell analysis

open access: yesCancer Cell International
Background The current immunotherapeutic strategies yield limited therapeutic benefits in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) due to its immunologically “cold” tumor milieu.
