Systemic and Pulmonary Vascular Remodelling in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2016
Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is associated with subclinical systemic atherosclerosis and pulmonary vascular remodelling characterized by intimal hyperplasia and luminal narrowing. We aimed to determine differences in the intimal thickening of systemic and pulmonary arteries in COPD subjects and smokers.

A General High‐Throughput Mucus Microrheology Platform for Quantitative and Scalable Mucus Phenotyping

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
High‐throughput Differential Dynamic Microscopy measures frequency‐resolved mechanical fingerprints from 3 to 10 μL$\umu{\rm L}$ mucus samples using only a few minutes of operator attention per sample. This automated analysis enables scalable mucus phenotyping for translational research by distinguishing mechanical heterogeneity among donors, disease ...

Optical coherence tomography assessment of pulmonary vascular remodeling in advanced heart failure. The OCTOPUS-CHF study

open access: yes, 2022
20.500.12530/87849Pulmonary vascular remodeling is common among patients with advanced heart failure. Right heart catheterization is the gold standard to assess pulmonary hypertension, but is limited by indirect measurement assumptions, a steady-flow ...

Magnetically Guided Macrophage Immunobots Coordinate Iron‐Metabolic Cascades and Immunogenic Ferroptosis for Tumor Immunotherapy

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Magnetically guided macrophage immunobots integrate active tumor targeting with immunometabolic therapy. After systemic administration, magnetic actuation enhances immunobot retention and tumor penetration, while LPS‐functionalized FePt microrollers sustain M1‐like polarization through inflammatory and iron‐amplified oxidative signaling and trigger ...

Endowing Flexibility of Alveolar Type II Cells to Recapitulate Development From Lung Bud to Alveoli

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Adult human alveolar type 2 cells are chemically reprogrammed into expandable alveolar progenitor‐like cells that acquire bud tip‐like features during expansion and form organoids that mature into alveolar‐like structures. These organoids model influenza A virus infection and innate immune responses in vitro, while transplanted cells engraft ...

Developing Highly Effective Nanoparticle mRNA Therapeutic for Pediatric Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Sepsis‑induced pediatric acute respiratory distress syndrome suppresses FOXF1 in lung endothelial cells which causes life‐threatening lung damage. To counter this, researchers developed nanoparticles that specifically target these cells and deliver FOXF1 mRNA.

Matrix Remodeling Promotes Pulmonary Hypertension through Feedback Mechanoactivation of the YAP/TAZ-miR-130/301 Circuit

open access: yesCell Reports, 2015
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a deadly vascular disease with enigmatic molecular origins. We found that vascular extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling and stiffening are early and pervasive processes that promote PH.

The Deubiquitinase UCHL1 Drives Susceptibility to Atrial Fibrillation by Stabilizing CaMKII‐δ

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
UCHL1 is highly upregulated in mice and patients with AF. UCHL1 directly binds to and removes K48‐linked polyubiquitin chains from CaMKII‐δ at K251 and enhances CaMKII‐δ stability, which activates RyR2, disrupts Ca2+ handling, and promotes AF. These findings establish UCHL1 as a critical regulator of CaMKII‐δ stability and AF‐related Ca2+ handling ...

Role of α‐SMA, NOX4, Fibronectin, and HIF‐1α in Pulmonary Microvascular Remodeling in COPD Patients Without Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

open access: yesThe Clinical Respiratory Journal
Background Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complication, with vascular remodeling occurring early in disease progression.

NS1‐Induced PARP1 Phase Transitions Prolongs Host Transcriptional Pausing to Promote Influenza A Virus Replication

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
After IAV infection, NS1 induces PARP1 phase transition, reducing molecular mobility in condensates, prolonging host transcriptional pause, aiding RdRp cap snatching, and promoting viral transcription. ABSTRACT Influenza A virus (IAV) commandeers host transcriptional machinery to replicate, but mechanisms remain elusive.
