The role of interleukin-4 receptor alpha on smooth muscle cells during helminth infection

open access: yes, 2011
Includes abstract.Includes bibliographical references (leaves 101-111).Interleukin-4 receptor alpha (IL-4Ra) signaling, mediated by the ligands IL-4 and IL- 13, is important for effective host protection during murine Nippostrongylus brasiliensis (N ...

Immunohistochemical characterization of the 'intimal proliferation' phenomenon in Sneddon's syndrome and essential thrombocythaemia

open access: yes, 1994
Cellular changes were immunocytochemically characterized in skin vessels of five patients with idiopathic generalized racemose livedo (Sneddon's syndrome), and one patient with localized racemose livedo associated with essential thrombocythaemia ...

Transplant arteriosclerosis : an experimental study on risk factors and pathogenetic mechanisms [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
In this thesis, we focused on vascular damage inflicted after transplantation, i.e. injury of the graft vasculature as a result of an alloreactive response of the host against the graft, and everal factors in-fluencing this process.

Kv7 and Kv11 channels in myometrial regulation.

open access: yes, 2013
Ion channels play a key role in defining myometrial contractility. Modulation of ion channel populations is proposed to underpin gestational changes in uterine contractility associated with the transition from uterine quiescence to active labour.

Inhibition of diacylglycerol–sensitive TRPC channels by synthetic and natural steroids

open access: yes, 2012
TRPC channels are a family of nonselective cation channels that regulate ion homeostasis and intracellular Ca2+ signaling in numerous cell types. Important physiological functions such as vasoregulation, neuronal growth, and pheromone recognition have ...

Spatial multiomics atlas reveals smooth muscle phenotypic transformation and metabolic reprogramming in diabetic macroangiopathy

open access: yesCardiovascular Diabetology
Background Diabetic macroangiopathy has been the main cause of death and disability in diabetic patients. The mechanisms underlying smooth muscle cell transformation and metabolic reprogramming other than abnormal glucose and lipid metabolism remain to ...

MicroRNAs play a role in human embryonic stem cell differentiation into endothelial cells

open access: yes, 2011
PhDThe past recent years have seen a surge of evidence demonstrating the regulation of microRNAs (miRNAs) in a myriad of vascular biology events such as cardiogenesis.

An investigation of NAADP-dependent Ca²⁺ signalling mechanisms in arterial smooth muscle

open access: yes, 2007
Previous investigations on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells have shown that nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide diphosphate (NAADP) evokes highly localised intracellular Ca²⁺ bursts by mobilising thapsigargin-insensitive Ca²⁺ stores.
