PIEZO Force Sensing in Vascular Biology: An Explosion of New Knowledge, Concepts and Opportunity

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Knowledge of the remarkable mechanical force sensing and electrically transducing PIEZO1 and PIEZO2 channels is discussed across vascular biology and its cell types from the embryonic to adult stages in health, disease and old age. How the channels work, relate to other factors and signal for tissue responses to mechanical forces is debated.

Synergistic effect of phosphodiesterase 4 inhibitor and serum on migration of endotoxin-stimulated macrophages. [PDF]

, 2018
Macrophage migration is an essential step in host defense against infection and wound healing. Elevation of cAMP by inhibiting phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4), enzymes that specifically degrade cAMP, is known to suppress various inflammatory responses in ...

A potential strategy for improving offspring behavior in maternal immune activation: Amantadine‐mediated suppression of neuroinflammation

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Amantadine (AMA) regulates neurocyte apoptosis and inhibits neurocyte inflammation to prevent maternal immune activation (MIA) from affecting offspring behavior. Abstract Background Maternal viral infection during pregnancy can lead to maternal immune activation (MIA), increasing the risk of neurodevelopmental disorders in offspring.

Correlates of Plasma NT‐proBNP/Cyclic GMP Ratio in Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction: An Analysis of the RELAX Trial

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Phosphodiesterases degrade cyclic GMP (cGMP), the second messenger that mediates the cardioprotective effects of natriuretic peptides. High natriuretic peptide/cGMP ratio may reflect, in part, phosphodiesterase activity.
