Biomaterials for modulating cellular responses of endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells: A promising avenue for tendon regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
This review comprehensively summarizes emerging biomaterial‐based strategies and underlying mechanisms for modulating endogenous tendon stem/progenitor cells (TSPCs). It offers the most recent insights into TSPC physiology and potential applications of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine in tendons.

Vasoactive intestinal peptide and its receptors in human ovarian cortical follicles. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Ovarian cryopreservation is one option for fertility preservation in patients with cancer. The danger of reseeding malignancies could be eliminated by in vitro maturation of primordial follicles from the frozen-thawed tissue.

Prospect of vasoactive intestinal peptide therapy for COPD/PAH and asthma: a review

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2011
There is mounting evidence that pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) share important pathological features, including inflammation, smooth muscle contraction and remodeling.

Vasoactive Peptides in the Lung, with Special Reference to Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide

open access: yesExperimental Lung Research, 1982
Numerous biologically active peptides are present in normal lung. Some of these, like vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) and substance P, are neuropeptides that may function as neurotransmitters or neuromodulators. The activities of lung peptides include relaxation or contraction of airway and pulmonary vascular smooth muscle, modification of ...

Pheochromocytoma Producing Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide [PDF]

open access: yesMayo Clinic Proceedings, 2002
The syndrome of watery diarrhea associated with hypokalemia and achlorhydria was originally described in 1958. Subsequently, this syndrome was shown to be caused by a neuroendocrine tumor secreting vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), and such tumors are almost always pancreatic in origin.

Syncing Health Timing: Exploring the Interplay of Circadian Rhythms, Obesity, and Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythm disruption impairs metabolic regulation, appetite control, and vascular function, promoting obesity and cardiovascular diseases. Evidence highlights a bidirectional relationship where metabolic disorders further disturb circadian timing.

Progress in the Role of Mast Cells and Biomolecular Signals in the Mechanism of Postoperative Ileus: From Cellular Activation to Exploration of the Brain–Gut Axis

open access: yesGut Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Postoperative ileus (POI) is a frequent complication after surgical procedures, predominantly manifesting as aberrant gastrointestinal motility, which markedly extends the duration of postoperative recovery for patients. The clinical duration of POI is typically modulated by intricate inflammatory cascades, with mast cells assuming a critical ...

Bidirectional Pathological Axis Between Alzheimer's Disease and Circadian Rhythm Disturbance: Mechanisms and Therapeutic Strategies

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
This graphical abstract illustrates a bidirectional vicious cycle between Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and circadian rhythm disturbance (CRD). On the one hand, AD pathology, including amyloid‐β (Aβ) plaque deposition and tau hyperphosphorylation, may damage the suprachiasmatic nucleus (SCN) and disrupt melatonin signaling, leading to sleep fragmentation ...

The Effects of Angiotensin Receptor Neprilysin Inhibitor on Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress in Doxorubicin‐Mediated Cardiomyopathy‐Associated Heart Failure Model in Rats

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT One of the most serious complications associated with the use of the chemotherapeutic agent doxorubicin (DOX) is cardiomyopathy. Although cardioprotective drugs such as angiotensin receptor‐neprilysin inhibitors (ARNI) are used to prevent cardiomyopathy in DOX patients, no studies have reported the relationship between ARNI and endoplasmic ...

Interaction of porcine vasoactive intestinal peptide with dispersed pancreatic acinar cells from the guinea pig. Binding of radioiodinated peptide.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1976
We have used 125I-labeled vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) to study the kinetics, stoichiometry, and chemical specificity with which the labeled peptide binds to dispersed acinar cells prepared from guinea pig pancreas.
