Truncated human endothelin receptor A produced by alternative splicing and its expression in melanoma [PDF]
, 1998 In this study, reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction was used to amplify human endothelin receptor A (ETA) and ETB receptor mRNA. A truncated ETA receptor transcript with exons 3 and 4 skipped was found.

The vascular architecture. Phlebosomes do they exist? [PDF]
, 2016 The angiosome is a 3D structure which is perfused by a single perforating artery (arteriosome) and drained by a perforating vein (venosome). The concept of arteriosome is applied in plastic surgery and in the revascularization of ischemic limbs. Each

Microscopic and ultrastructural evaluation of the saphenous vein endothelium for CABG prepared by the no touch technique [PDF]
, 2008 OBJECTIVE: Saphenous vein grafts (SV) used in coronary artery bypass grafting have a limited life and vein occlusion may be the final adverse effect. Efforts to develop new techniques to harvest the saphenous vein may improve the viability of the graft ...

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Percutaneous prosthetic venous valves are fabricated by embedding stents in an electrospun matrix that extends luminally to form leaflets. The design shields leaflets from hyperplastic cells, isolates struts from blood contact, and avoids discrete anchoring points.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.This study evaluates 3D‐printed recombinant spider silk hydrogel eADF4(C16)‐RGD in a rat AV loop model for tissue engineering. Constructs with T17b endothelial progenitor cells showed enhanced vascularization and biodegradation. Results highlight the importance of scaffold design and cellular integration in improving vascular density and overall ...

A novel technique of tunneled venous conduit retrieval for femoropopliteal artery bypass
Indian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery, 2020 We would like to report a novel technique in the use of endoscopically retrieved reverse saphenous vein for femoropopliteal bypass grafting. A common mishap encountered while tunneling reversed saphenous vein is avulsion of side branches.
