From Lab to Landscape: Environmental Biohybrid Robotics for Ecological Futures

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This Perspective explores environmental biohybrid robotics, integrating living tissues, microorganisms, and insects for operation in real‐world ecosystems. It traces the leap from laboratory experiments to forests, wetlands, and urban environments and discusses key challenges, development pathways, and opportunities for ecological monitoring and ...

Magnetic Micro‐ and Nanorobots for Precision Thrombolysis: Design Strategies and Translational Challenges

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Micro‐ and nanorobots for targeted thrombolysis. This perspective elaborates on the clinical indication of blood clot disorders and current limitations for treatment. As a novel, alternative solution, micro‐ and nanorobots can be used to treat and break down thrombi.

Brain vascular biology

2021
The complex development of the brain vascular system can be broken down by embryonic stages and anatomic locations, which are tightly regulated by different factors and pathways in time and spatially. The adult brain is relatively quiescent in angiogenesis.

Vascular Biology of the Isoprostanes

Journal of Vascular Research, 2001
Isoprostanes are a family of compounds produced from polyunsaturated fatty acids via a free-radical-catalysed mechanism. F<sub>2</sub>-isoprostanes are prostaglandin F<sub>2α</sub> isomers derived from arachidonic acid. These compounds induce potent vasoconstriction, mediated primarily by TP receptor stimulation, and in some ...

The biology of vascular calcification

2020
Vascular calcification (VC), characterized by different mineral deposits (i.e., carbonate apatite, whitlockite and hydroxyapatite) accumulating in blood vessels and valves, represents a relevant pathological process for the aging population and a life-threatening complication in acquired and in genetic diseases.

Sphingolipids In Vascular Biology

2002
A significant body of evidence now exists to indicate that certain sphingolipids such as the sphingomyelin metabolites, ceramide, sphingosine and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P) are potent modulators of cell behavior’2. This article reviews recent findings pertaining to the biological activities of two sphingolipids, ceramide and S-1-P.

The vascular biology of atherosclerosis

The American Journal of Medicine, 2003
Despite many advances in cardiology, atherosclerosis remains a major medical problem. This is especially the case for individuals with insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Atherosclerotic lesions can develop as early as the second decade of life and progress into clinical disease over time.

Molecular biology of vascular hypertrophy

European Journal of Pharmacology, 1990
In chronic models of hypertension such as the spontaneously hypertensive rat (SHR), thickening of the media of large arteries occurs mainly through smooth muscle cell (SMC) hypertrophy accompanied by DNA replication resulting in large polyploid cells. In resistance vessels of SHR, medial hypertrophy occurs through a hyperplastic response.

Vascular biology and vasculitis

APMIS, 2009
The inflammation of blood vessel walls that is associated with autoimmune disorders characterized by anti‐neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) represents dysregulation of normal physiological processes, whereby neutrophils recruited to the vessel wall by cytokine‐activated endothelium show destructive behaviours that initiate damage with endothelial ...
