Uterine spiral artery remodeling involves endothelial apoptosis induced by extravillous trophoblasts through Fas/FasL interactions. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Objective— Invasion of uterine spiral arteries by extravillous trophoblasts in the first trimester of pregnancy results in loss of endothelial and musculoelastic layers.

Large‐Scale Genomics Reveals Three‐Source Ancestry and Layered Adaptation to High Altitude in Tibetan Chickens

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome analysis of 1,054 chickens reveals three ancestral sources (NWC, SYA, and SHF) with distinct temporal entry patterns into the Tibetan Plateau. Route‐specific selection scans, calibrated against a demographic null, suggest complementary functional enrichments—vascular homeostasis (NWC), calcium signaling and cardiac adaptation (SYA), and ...

A Soft Matrix Microenvironment Promotes Laterally Spreading Tumors via Oxidative Phosphorylation‐Dependent Cell Adhesion

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Laterally spreading tumors (LSTs) are precancerous colorectal lesions characterized by a flat morphology. This study reveals a mechanochemical pathway through which a soft matrix microenvironment diminishes spatial constraints in intestinal adenomas. This process promotes deficiencies in tight junction proteins, mediated by the mechanoreceptor ADORA2B ...

Lower levels of vWF are associated with lower risk of cardiovascular disease

open access: yesResearch and Practice in Thrombosis and Haemostasis, 2022
Objective The current study was undertaken to prospectively explore whether having low levels of von Willebrand factor (vWF) antigen and vWF activity reduce the risk for cardiovascular disease and death. Methods VWF antigen and vWF activity were measured

Sex-dependent influence of endogenous estrogen in pulmonary hypertension [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Rationale: The incidence of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is greater in women suggesting estrogens may play a role in the disease pathogenesis. Experimentally, in males exogenously administered estrogen can protect against PH; however in models ...

Angiogenesis and the ADAMTS13-VWF balance [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2017
In this issue of Blood , Xu et al describe a new function for the metalloprotease ADAMTS13 in blood vessel formation following brain ischemia. Using multiple approaches in mice, they show that ADAMTS13 is required for neovascularization and vascular repair following ischemic stroke.

Design of Single‐Atom Nanozymes for Precision Treatment of Erectile Dysfunction with Integrated Single‐Cell RNA Sequencing and Machine Learning

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
It is innovatively utilized single‐cell RNA sequencing to explore the underlying causes of diabetes mellitus‐induced erectile dysfunction, followed by machine learning‐driven design of a single‐atom nanozyme (Fe‐DMOF) for precision treatment of erectile dysfunction.

Migraine and vascular disease biomarkers: A population-based case-control study. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Background The underpinnings of the migraine-stroke association remain uncertain, but endothelial activation is a potential mechanism. We evaluated the association of migraine and vascular disease biomarkers in a community-based population.

Lyophilized Synthetic Platelets: In Vitro Characterization and in Vivo Evaluation in Mouse Thrombocytopenia Model

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Platelet transfusions to treat bleeding complications use donor‐derived platelets stored at room‐temperature, that have a shelf‐life of only 5–7 days due to bacterial contamination risks. Cold‐stored and freeze‐dried platelets are being investigated for extending shelf‐life, but these still have the inherent challenge of donor‐dependency.

Von Willebrand disease type Vicenza: In search of a classification for the archetype of reduced von Willebrand factor survival

open access: yeseJHaem, 2021
Type Vicenza von Willebrand disease (VWD) features a von Willebrand factor (VWF) with a very short half‐life, and is classified as a form of type 1 VWD. To test the appropriateness of type Vicenza VWD classification, the main features of 17 patients from
