Roles of lipocalin-type and hematopoietic prostaglandin D synthases in mouse retinal angiogenesis
Journal of Lipid Research, 2023 Normal angiogenesis is essential for retinal development and maintenance of visual function in the eye, and its abnormality can cause retinopathy and other eye diseases. Prostaglandin D2 is an anti-angiogenic lipid mediator produced by lipocalin-type PGD

Vascular Calcification and Stone Disease: A New Look towards the Mechanism
Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2015 Calcium phosphate (CaP) crystals are formed in pathological calcification as well as during stone formation. Although there are several theories as to how these crystals can develop through the combined interactions of biochemical and biophysical factors,

Physiological Reviews, 2011 Microglial cells are the resident macrophages in the central nervous system. These cells of mesodermal/mesenchymal origin migrate into all regions of the central nervous system, disseminate through the brain parenchyma, and acquire a specific ramified morphological phenotype termed “resting microglia.” Recent studies indicate that even in the normal ...

The Physiology of Ventilation [PDF]
Respiratory Care, 2014 The diffusion of gases brings the partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in blood and alveolar gas to an equilibrium at the pulmonary blood-gas barrier. Alveolar PCO2 (PACO2) dependson the balance between the amount of CO2 being added by pulmonary blood and the amount being eliminated by alveolar ventilation (V ̇ A).
