Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

CircPMS1 promotes proliferation of pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells, pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells, and pericytes under hypoxia

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine
Background Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been recognized as significant regulators of pulmonary hypertension (PH); however, the differential expression and function of circRNAs in different vascular cells under hypoxia remain unknown. Here, we identified

Increased Levels of Runt-Related Transcription Factor 2 Are Associated With Poor Survival of Patients With Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

American Journal of Men's Health, 2020
Runt-related transcription factor 2 (RUNX2) plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH); yet, whether circulating levels of RUNX2 can predict survival of patients with idiopathic PAH (IPAH) is still unclear.
