Alamandine and Its Receptor MrgD Pair Up to Join the Protective Arm of the Renin-Angiotensin System [PDF]
, 2019 Only a few years ago, alamandine was found to be a member of the protective arm of the renin-angiotensin system. It turned out to be an endogenous ligand of the G protein-coupled receptor MrgD.

Recurrent Hypothermia and Autonomic Dysfunction Secondary to Shapiro Syndrome
Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT A 44‐year‐old man presented with recurrent hypothermia, diaphoresis and hypertension. Extensive investigation for infectious, inflammatory, metabolic and endocrine aetiologies was negative. MR scan of the brain demonstrated no lesions but revealed callosal dysgenesis, consistent with Shapiro syndrome.

YAKUGAKU ZASSHI, 1994 In addition to sympathetic vasoconstrictor nerves, nonadrenergic, noncholinergic vasodilator nerves control the vascular tone. In cerebral arteries of various species of animals, nitric oxide (NO) is a potential candidate for the vasodilator transmitter. In rat mesenteric arterioles, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) functions as a transmitter. In

Fluid Forces Control Structural Remodeling of Blind‐Ended Lymphatic Microvessels
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Using innovative microfluidic biofabrication with fluid mechanical insights, we recapitulated the blind‐ended microanatomy and physiological drainage properties of capillary lymphatics. Our results reveal the interrelationship between intra‐ and extraluminal regions of lymphatic vessels due to flow‐induced sprouting and morphological changes that ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...
