TRPV2 channels facilitate pulmonary endothelial barrier recovery after ROS-induced permeability

Redox Biology
Reactive oxygen species (ROS), such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), are known signaling molecules that increase endothelial barrier permeability. In this study, we investigated the roles of redox-sensitive transient receptor potential (TRP) ion channels ...

Post‐Omicron cognitive decline is largely reversible: Two‐year multicenter cohort study of domain‐specific outcomes in hospitalized patients

Neuroprotection, EarlyView.
Earlier variants of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2), including the original strain, Alpha and Delta, were linked to significant and persistent cognitive impairment. The long‐term cognitive impact of Omicron infection, however, has remained uncertain. This study shows that post‐Omicron cognitive decline is largely reversible,

Endothelial progenitor cells in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and emphysema.

PLoS ONE, 2017
Endothelial injury is implicated in the pathogenesis of COPD and emphysema; however the role of endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), a marker of endothelial cell repair, and circulating endothelial cells (CECs), a marker of endothelial cell injury, in ...

Human Umbilical Cord Mesenchymal Stem Cell‐Derived Microvesicles Alleviate Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia in Preterm Rats by Inhibiting Neutrophil Extracellular Trap Formation

Pediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
Excessive neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) extrusion (NETosis) links prenatal inflammation to bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) pathogenesis. Treatment with human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cell‐derived microvesicles suppresses NET formation, reduces lung injury, and promotes alveolarization in a preterm rat model, offering a promising cell‐free

Activation of endothelial GABAA receptor α1 subunit protects against barrier dysfunction in acute lung injury

BMC Pulmonary Medicine
Vascular hyperpermeability drives the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI) during sepsis. Although γ-aminobutyric acid type A receptors (GABAARs) are classically recognized as central nervous system ion channels, we identified an unexpected, essential

Role of defensins in immunothrombosis

Rheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
Defensins are important proteins that link the immune system and blood clotting, playing a key role in immunothrombosis. α‐defensins mainly come from neutrophils, while β‐defensins are produced by epithelial cells and platelets. These proteins help form blood clots in several ways: they slow down clot breakdown (fibrinolysis), activate platelets, and ...

New perspectives on the progression of pulmonary fibrosis: the cascade from aberrant microvascular endothelial cell activation to fibrosis

Frontiers in Medicine
Traditional studies of pulmonary fibrosis (PF) have focused on alveolar epithelial cells injury and abnormal myofibroblast aggregation, but recent studies have revealed that imbalances in pulmonary capillary homeostasis also play pivotal roles in this ...
