A comparative study on the mechanical properties of the umbilical vein and umbilical artery under uniaxial loading

open access: yesArtery Research, 2014
Purpose: Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) is the main cause of mortalities worldwide. The Saphenous Vein (SV) and Umbilical Vein (UV) are the most common veins using for treatment as a Coronary Artery Bypass Graft (CABG).

Coagulative Granular Hydrogels with an Enzyme Catalyzed Fibrin Network for Endogenous Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Coagulative granular hydrogels are composed of packed thrombin‐functionalized microgels that catalyze the conversion of fibrinogen into a secondary fibrin network, filling the interstitial voids. This bio‐inspired approach stabilizes the biomaterial to match the robustness of bulk hydrogels without compromising injectability, mimicking the initial ...

Role of vitamin A/retinoic acid in regulation of embryonic and adult hematopoiesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Vitamin A is an essential micronutrient throughout life. Its physiologically active metabolite retinoic acid (RA), acting through nuclear retinoic acid receptors (RARs), is a potent regulator of patterning during embryonic development, as well as being ...

Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...

AKT/FOXO1 axis links cross-talking of endothelial cell and pericyte in TIE2-mutated venous malformations

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2020
Background Venous malformations (VMs), most of which associated with activating mutations in the endothelial cells (ECs) tyrosine kinase receptor TIE2, are characterized by dilated and immature veins with scarce smooth muscle cells (SMCs) coverage ...

Distribution of endothelial cell protein C/activated protein C receptor (EPCR) during mouse embryo development. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The endothelial cell protein C receptor (EPCR) augments protein C activation by the thrombomodulin.thrombin complex. Deletion of the EPCR gene in mice has been reported to lead to embryonic lethality before embryonic day 10 (E10.0). To identify potential

Absent ductus venosus: case series from two tertiary centres [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
INTRODUCTION: Congenital absence of the ductus venosus (ADV) is a rare vascular anomaly often associated with fetal cardiac and extracardiac anomalies, aneuploidies, and hydrops.
