Syndecan2 Controls Vascular Smooth Muscle Development And Cytoskeletal Dynamics [PDF]
, 2015 Syndecan2 is a member of the Syndecan family of transmembrane proteoglycans, expressed broadly in mammals. Syndecan2, along with Syndecan4, is expressed in the vasculature of mouse and man. Global deletion of Syndecan2 in mice does not affect viability

Syndecan-1 regulates vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype.
PLoS ONE, 2014 ObjectiveWe examined the role of syndecan-1 in modulating the phenotype of vascular smooth muscle cells in the context of endogenous inflammatory factors and altered microenvironments that occur in disease or injury-induced vascular remodeling.Methods ...

Prediction of Muscle Activations for Reaching Movements using Deep Neural Networks [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 The motor control problem involves determining the time-varying muscle activation trajectories required to accomplish a given movement. Muscle redundancy makes motor control a challenging task: there are many possible activation trajectories that accomplish the same movement.

A Two-Phase Model of Early Fibrous Cap Formation in Atherosclerosis [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Atherosclerotic plaque growth is characterised by chronic inflammation that promotes accumulation of cellular debris and extracellular fat in the inner artery wall. This material is highly thrombogenic, and plaque rupture can lead to the formation of blood clots that occlude major arteries and cause myocardial infarction or stroke. In advanced plaques,

Imbalance of Endothelium-derived Relaxing and Contracting Factors: A New Concept in Hypertension? [PDF]
, 2017 The endothelium has a strategical anatomical position between the circulating blood and vascular smooth muscle cells. It has recently been recognized that endothelial cells play an important regulatory role in the circulation.

HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype. [PDF]
, 2019 Aortic calcification is an important independent predictor of future cardiovascular events. We performed a genome-wide association meta-analysis to determine SNPs associated with the extent of abdominal aortic calcification (n = 9,417) or descending ...
