Engineered pulmonary artery tissues for measuring contractility, drug testing and disease modelling
Abstract Background and Purpose Vasoreactivity of pulmonary arteries regulates blood flow through the lungs. Excessive constriction of these vessels contributes to pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), a progressive and incurable condition, resulting in right heart failure.

Background and Purpose Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disease characterized by fibroblast activation and abnormal accumulation of extracellular matrix in the lungs. We previously demonstrated the importance of the heat shock protein αB‐crystallin (HSPB5) in TGF‐β1 profibrotic signalling, which suggests that HSPB5 could be a new ...

We summarize recent findings on the cell biological aspects of peritoneal metastasis and potential therapeutic target molecules. We focus on the molecular mechanisms underlying cluster/spheroid formation in multiclonal peritoneal metastasis and cancer–stroma interactions within the peritoneal tumor microenvironment. ABSTRACT Peritoneal metastasis, also

Vascular permeability is increased by lung metastasis, which correlates with YAP activation in ECs. Activated ECs provide SERPINE1 to neighboring cancer cells to promote chemoresistance and stemness. ABSTRACT Chemotherapy resistance remains a major obstacle for eradicating metastatic cancer cells in distant organs. We identified that endothelial cells (

Obesity‐related glomerulopathy: How it happens and future perspectives
Abstract Obesity‐related glomerulopathy (ORG) is an emerging complication of excess adiposity. Its incidence rises alongside the obesity pandemic. Up to 40% of individuals can be affected by ORG, irrespective of the status of glomerular filtration rate and albuminuria.
