SOX6 enhances vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching and elevates blood pressure by activating autophagy

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
Sox6 expression is elevated in hypertensive conditions and promotes vascular smooth muscle cell phenotypic switching through autophagy activation. Using gain‐ and loss‐of‐function approaches both in vitro and in vivo, we demonstrate that Sox6 regulates blood pressure and vascular remodeling, highlighting its potential as a novel therapeutic target for ...

Virtual Reality-Based Preoperative Planning for Optimized Trocar Placement in Thoracic Surgery: A Preliminary Study [PDF]

open access: yes
Video-assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) is a minimally invasive approach for treating early-stage non-small-cell lung cancer. Optimal trocar placement during VATS ensures comprehensive access to the thoracic cavity, provides a panoramic endoscopic view, and prevents instrument crowding. While established principles such as the Baseball Diamond Principle

Review of the anatomical basis for predicting plutonium alpha particle radiation induced osteogenic cancers

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Plutonium was discovered and first synthesized in the early 1940's. Several isotopes of plutonium are used in nuclear technologies, 238Pu for heat generation and 239Pu for energy production and weapons. Both isotopes emit alpha particles, which pose a significant radiation hazard when incorporated into the body.
