Autophagy in Vascular Disease [PDF]
Circulation Research, 2015 Autophagy is a reparative, life-sustaining process by which cytoplasmic components are sequestered in double-membrane vesicles and degraded on fusion with lysosomal compartments. Growing evidence reveals that basal autophagy is an essential in vivo process mediating proper vascular function.

How vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype switching contributes to vascular disease
Cell Communication and Signaling, 2022 Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are the most abundant cell in vessels. Earlier experiments have found that VSMCs possess high plasticity. Vascular injury stimulates VSMCs to switch into a dedifferentiated type, also known as synthetic VSMCs, with a ...

Sex differences in the risk of vascular disease associated with diabetes
Biology of Sex Differences, 2020 Diabetes is a strong risk factor for vascular disease. There is compelling evidence that the relative risk of vascular disease associated with diabetes is substantially higher in women than men.

Short endovenous laser ablation of the great saphenous vein in a modified CHIVA strategy
Veins and Lymphatics, 2013 Mini-invasiveness, ease of use and execution speed represent the reasons for endovenous laser ablation success. Nevertheless, the strategic choice remains the ablation of the saphenous trunk.

Aquaporin and Vascular Diseases [PDF]
Current Neuropharmacology, 2010 Aquaporins (AQP) are family of water channels found in several epithelial and endothelial cells, whose recent identification has provided insights into water transport in several tissues, including the central nervous system (CNS). Since brain edema continues to be the main cause of death from several CNS diseases, such as stroke, much of the interest ...

Spontaneous thrombosis of primary external jugular veins aneurysms
Veins and Lymphatics, 2013 External jugular vein (EJV) aneurysms represent a rare condition whose origin, evolution and consequent best therapeutic options still need further investigations. We present herein two peculiar clinical cases. In the first one, an EJV aneurysm developed

Rheopheresis in vascular diseases [PDF]
Clinical Hemorheology and Microcirculation, 2017 Rheopheresis is an extracorporal selective double-filtration procedure. In the first part of the treatment the blood is passes through the plasma filter, which separates blood cells from the plasma. Then the plasma flow to a second filter called MONET (Membranefiltration Optimised Novel Extracorporal Treatment).

Protein engineering to develop a redox insensitive endothelial nitric oxide synthase
Redox Biology, 2014 The zinc tetrathiolate (ZnS4) cluster is an important structural feature of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). The cluster is located on the dimeric interface and four cysteine residues (C94 and C99 from two adjacent subunits) form a cluster with ...
