HSP70 governs permeability and mechanotransduction in primary human endothelial cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
HSP70 chemical inhibition reduces endothelial cell proliferation and increases permeability, the latter supported by normal interendothelial junctional protein distribution. HSP70 also plays a role in shear stress response, a hemodynamic force naturally present in blood vessels and correlated with vessel protection.

Role of growth factors in the pathogenesis of tissue fibrosis in systemic sclerosis. [PDF]

, 2010
The most severe clinical and pathologic manifestations of systemic sclerosis (SSc) are the result of a fibrotic process characterized by the excessive and often progressive deposition of collagen and other connective tissue macromolecules in skin and ...

Multi‐Omics Integration for Advancing Glioma Precision Medicine

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gliomas are among the most malignant and aggressive tumors of the central nervous system, characterized by the absence of early diagnostic markers, poor prognosis, and a lack of effective treatments. Advances in high‐throughput technologies have facilitated a refined molecular classification of gliomas, incorporating genetic features. However,

The role of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in renal pathophysiology [PDF]

Kidney International, 2004
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is an endothelial-specific growth factor that promotes endothelial cell proliferation, differentiation and survival, mediates endothelium-dependent vasodilatation, induces microvascular hyperpermeability and participates in interstitial matrix remodeling.

Lung Microphysiological System Validates Novel Cell Therapy for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome

Advanced Biology, EarlyView.
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of primed mesenchymal stem cells (pMSCs) as an alternative treatment for Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS), based on a novel lung microphysiological system (MPS) to test the efficacy of pMSCs over the standard treatment, Dexamethasone.

Two Birds, One Stone: Double Hits on Tumor Growth and Lymphangiogenesis by Targeting Vascular Endothelial Growth Factor Receptor 3

Cells, 2019
Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 3 (VEGFR3) has been known for its involvement in tumor-associated lymphangiogenesis and lymphatic metastasis. The VEGFR3 signaling is stimulated by its main cognate ligand, vascular endothelial growth factor C (

Cholinergic neural activity directs retinal layer-specific angiogenesis and blood retinal barrier formation. [PDF]

, 2019
Blood vessels in the central nervous system (CNS) develop unique features, but the contribution of CNS neurons to regulating those features is not fully understood. We report that inhibiting spontaneous cholinergic activity or reducing starburst amacrine

Angiogenic and cell survival functions of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). [PDF]

, 2005
Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was originally identified as an endothelial cell specific growth factor stimulating angiogenesis and vascular permeability. Some family members, VEGF C and D, are specifically involved in lymphangiogenesis.
