Vascular smooth muscle cell mechanotransduction: Pathways, phenotypes and emerging technologies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Vascular smooth muscle cells are exposed to mechanical stimuli from the blood flow and the extracellular matrix. The cells sense the signals from cyclic stretch, shear stress, hydrostatic pressure and matrix stiffness through specialized mechanosensors, such as mechanosensitive ion channels or cell surface receptors including ...

The Immuno‐Cardiovascular Storm of Pre‐Eclampsia: Cytokine‐Mediated Endothelial Injury, Thrombosis, and Maternal Cardiovascular Instability

open access: yesComprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2026.
Placental ischemia in pre‐eclampsia initiates cytokine‐driven endothelial dysfunction, angiogenic imbalance, oxidative stress, and thromboinflammation. Elevated TNF‐α, IL‐6, IL‐17, sFlt‐1, and complement activation promote vasoconstriction, thrombosis, and cardiovascular instability.

An investigation of NAADP-dependent Ca²⁺ signalling mechanisms in arterial smooth muscle

open access: yes, 2007
Previous investigations on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells have shown that nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide diphosphate (NAADP) evokes highly localised intracellular Ca²⁺ bursts by mobilising thapsigargin-insensitive Ca²⁺ stores.

A Review of Breath Sensing for Disease Monitoring and Diagnosis: Breathomics, Artificial Intelligence, and Nanomaterials for the Future of Medicine

open access: yesAdvanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 7, July 2026.
Breathomics is established as a non‐invasive diagnostic strategy by combining volatile organic compound biomarkers, nanomaterial‐based sensor arrays, and AI‐driven classification. Key diseases, sensing materials, and analytical challenges are critically compared, revealing how portable, data‐enabled breath platforms are moving toward clinically useful ...

Endothelin-1 signalling in vascular smooth muscle: Pathways controlling cellular functions associated with atherosclerosis

open access: yes, 2008
Atherosclerosis is the primary ischaemic vascular condition underlying a majority of cardiovascular disease related deaths. Endothelin-1 is a vasoactive peptide agent upregulated in atherosclerosis and in conjunction with its G protein-coupled receptors ...

Natural History of Chronic Kidney Disease in Sickle Cell Disease

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Hematology, Volume 101, Issue 7, Page 1456-1477, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Kidney complications, referred to as nephropathy, develop early in sickle cell disease (SCD). In addition to its known morbidity, abundant data show that chronic kidney disease (CKD) is associated with an increased mortality risk in SCD. Increasing evidence suggests that the natural history of SCD nephropathy is progressive. Initial glomerular
