Neurovascular coupling in bone regeneration: Mechanisms, advanced biomaterials and challenges

BMEMat, EarlyView.
This figure illustrates various material strategies for neurovascularized bone regeneration, including electroactive scaffolds, ion‐loaded materials, drug delivery systems, surface modifications, cells/cell products, growth factors, and peptides. These approaches aim to synergistically promote the regeneration of neural, vascular, and bone tissues ...

WONOEP XVII appraisal: The role of the extracellular matrix in epilepsy

Epilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract The extracellular matrix (ECM) is composed of proteoglycans and glycoproteins that regulate the external environment surrounding neurons, glia, and the vascular system. The ECM is vital for maintaining the structure and function of the brain and also acts as a reservoir for various signaling molecules and neurotransmitters, modulating synaptic

Toward the Existence of a Sympathetic Neuroplasticity Adaptive Mechanism Influencing the Immune Response. A Hypothetical View—Part I

Frontiers in Endocrinology, 2019
The nervous system exerts a profound influence on the function of the immune system (IS), mainly through the sympathetic arm of the autonomic nervous system.

Exercise‐specific plasma proteomic signatures in racehorses: Candidates for training adaptation and peak load monitoring

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Racehorses undergo profound physiological changes with training and competition, but current biomarkers inadequately capture the complex molecular dynamics of exercise. This study aimed to identify novel plasma biomarkers of training adaptation and peak load using high‐throughput proteomics.

Semaphorins and Their Receptors in Hematological Malignancies

Frontiers in Oncology, 2019
While semaphorins were initially identified as axonal guidance cues for wiring the neural network, it was then recognized their wide relevance in tissue development and homeostasis.

Semaphorins and their Signaling Mechanisms [PDF]

, 2016
Semaphorins are extracellular signaling proteins that are essential for the development and maintenance of many organs and tissues. The more than 20-member semaphorin protein family includes secreted, transmembrane and cell surface-attached proteins with diverse structures, each characterized by a single cysteine-rich extracellular sema domain, the ...

Proteomic signatures of equine dental tooth tissues in ageing and disease

Equine Veterinary Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Ageing and dental disease in horses lead to structural and functional deterioration of dental tissues, yet their molecular signatures remain poorly characterised. Understanding how these processes alter the protein composition of enamel, dentin, cementum and pulp is essential for improving equine oral health and identifying ...

Plasma and Synovial Fluid VEGF‐A and Neuropilin‐1 in Knee Osteoarthritis: Associations With Radiographic Severity, Pain Sensitization‐Related Features, and Disease Burden

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study aimed to investigate associations of plasma and synovial fluid vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF‐A) and neuropilin‐1 (NRP1) levels with radiographic severity, pain sensitization‐related features, and disease burden in knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Plasma VEGF‐A and NRP1 were measured by sandwich ELISA in 120 patients with KOA (

Pathophysiological functions of semaphorins in the sympathetic nervous system

Inflammation and Regeneration, 2023
Upon exposure to external stressors, the body senses them and activates the sympathetic nervous system (SNS) to maintain the homeostasis, which is known as the “fight-or-flight” response. Recent studies have revealed that the SNS also plays pivotal roles

Genetic risk factors in Finnish patients with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To study the genetic risk factors of Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy (FECD) in the Finnish population using hospital‐based and large biobank cohorts. Methods We genotyped a cohort of 107 Finnish patients with FECD for the primary associated genetic risk factor, the TCF4 (CTG)>50 expansion, and studied their clinical phenotype.
