Performance evaluation of a pulsatile ventricular assist device under non physiologic pumping frequencies by means FEM and 2D approach [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A ventricular assist device (VAD) is a blood pump that works in parallel with heart. It is used as a mechanical assistance for patients that suffer cardiac insufficiency: as a therapy, as a bridge to transplant or to extend life.

Deciphering diverse cell‐death patterns to predict the prognosis and potential therapy target of hepatocellular carcinoma patients

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Abstract Ninety percent of all primary liver malignancies are hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC), making liver cancer the third most common cause of cancer‐associated mortality. Different patterns of programmed cell death (PCD) are crucial for the survival of tumors, and they might serve as a prognostic marker for HCC.

Role of NRP1/HDAC4/CREB/RIPK1 Axis in SARS‐CoV2 S1 Spike Subunit‐Induced Neuronal Toxicity

open access: yesFASEB BioAdvances, EarlyView.
Extracellular SARS‐CoV2 Spike‐S1 protein via NRP1 internalizes in the cytosol of SH‐SY5Y cells. Once inside, it upregulates the epigenetic eraser HDAC4, which binds transcriptional factor CREB, causes RIPK1 up‐regulation, and therefore necroptotic cell death.
