Intrinsically Soft Implantable Electronics for Long‐term Biosensing Applications

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.
Intrinsically soft implantable biosensors address the mechanical mismatch of conventional rigid implants, improving biocompatibility and stability. This review explores soft encapsulation matrices, stretchable conductors, implantation strategies, and chronic fixation techniques.

The Role of Sex Hormones in Inducing Maternal Uterine Remodeling and Vasodilation During Pregnancy [PDF]

, 2018
Uterine vascular adaptations such as vessel growth and vasodilation are needed to facilitate the more than 10-fold increase of uteroplacental blood flow (UPBF) during pregnancy.

Impaired vasodilation of forearm resistance vessels in hypercholesterolemic humans.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1990
The effect of hypercholesterolemia on vascular function was studied in humans. To eliminate the potential confounding effects of atherosclerosis, vascular reactivity was measured in the forearm resistance vessels of 11 normal subjects (serum LDL ...

Ultrasound‐Induced Nitric Oxide‐Propelled Nanomotor for Multimodal Theranostics of Cancer with Deep Penetration and Extended Lifetime

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A hollow nanomotor (PM‐HMSN/Arg) propelled by ultrasound‐triggered nitric oxide (NO) was developed. The nanomotor employs a “tethering‐relaxing‐drilling” mechanism to overcome biological barriers, enabling multimodal theranostics of cancer with deep penetration and extended lifetime.

Depletion of B-cells with rituximab improves endothelial function and reduces inflammation among individuals with rheumatoid arthritis. [PDF]

, 2014
BackgroundIndividuals with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at increased risk for cardiovascular disease, partly due to systemic inflammation and endothelial dysfunction.

Irisin Attenuates Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension via Ubiquitin‐Mediated Regulation of ENO1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Irisin is a crucial plasma biomarker and promising therapeutic target that reflects disease severity, pulmonary vascular remodeling status and clinical outcome in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). As a novel protective factor, irisin is downregulated in PAH. By ubiquitination, irisin promotes Enolase 1 degradation and suppresses cell

Acute (-)-Epicatechin Consumption: Effects on Local Vasodilation Following Resistance Exercise and High-Intensity Exercise Performance

Sports, 2020
(-)-Epicatechin is a polyphenol previously shown to enhance vascular health. The purposes of the current studies were to determine the effect of acute (-)-epicatechin supplementation on local vasodilation in conjunction with resistance exercise (study 1)

Requirement for sphingosine kinase 1 in mediating phase 1 of the hypotensive response to anandamide in the anaesthetised mouse [PDF]

, 2019
In the isolated rat carotid artery, the endocannabinoid anandamide induces endothelium-dependent relaxation via activation of the enzyme sphingosine kinase (SK).

Vitamin C improves endothelium-dependent vasodilation in patients with non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus.

Journal of Clinical Investigation, 1996
Endothelium-dependent vasodilation is impaired in humans with diabetes mellitus. Inactivation of endothelium-derived nitric oxide by oxygen-derived free radicals contributes to abnormal vascular reactivity in experimental models of diabetes. To determine

Bionic Microneedle Patch Inspired by Drosophila Tarsal Paws Boosts Healing in Bacterial Infectious Stomatitis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Microneedle suction cup patches, prepared using bionic Drosophila tarsal claws, can effectively treat bacterial infectious stomatitis by rapidly and efficiently leveraging multiple effects, including antibacterial and anti‐inflammatory properties, promotion of vasodilation, and active mechanical contraction of the wound.
