Arthritis & rheumatology (Hoboken, N.J.), 71(4), 612-625 (2018-11-06)
It remains unclear if and how inflammation and new bone formation in spondyloarthritis (SpA) are coupled. We undertook this study to assess the hypothesis that interleukin-17A (IL-17A) is a pivotal driver of both processes. The effect of tumor necrosis factor
Scientific reports, 10(1), 15318-15318 (2020-09-20)
Animal models of pressure overload are valuable for understanding hypertensive heart disease. We characterised a surgical model of pressure overload-induced hypertrophy in C57BL/6J mice produced by suprarenal aortic constriction (SAC). Compared to sham controls, at one week post-SAC systolic blood
Nature communications, 11(1), 3068-3068 (2020-06-20)
Surgical adhesions are bands of scar tissues that abnormally conjoin organ surfaces. Adhesions are a major cause of post-operative and dialysis-related complications, yet their patho-mechanism remains elusive, and prevention agents in clinical trials have thus far failed to achieve efficacy.
Arteriosclerosis, thrombosis, and vascular biology, 40(6), 1479-1490 (2020-04-10)
Enhanced expression of PAI-1 (plasminogen activator inhibitor-1) has been implicated in atherosclerosis formation in humans with obesity and metabolic syndrome. However, little is known about the effects of pharmacological targeting of PAI-1 on atherogenesis. This study examined the effects of
Cell reports, 30(2), 525-540 (2020-01-16)
Although there are many prospective targets in the tumor microenvironment (TME) of high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), pre-clinical testing is challenging, especially as there is limited information on the murine TME. Here, we characterize the TME of six orthotopic, transplantable syngeneic
PloS one, 11(1), e0144523-e0144523 (2016-01-20)
Single-vessel, intracoronary infusion of stem cells under stop-flow conditions has proven safe but achieves only limited myocardial coverage. Continuous flow intracoronary delivery to one or more coronary vessels may achieve broader coverage for treating cardiomyopathy, but has not been investigated.
Developmental cell, 54(3), 302-316 (2020-06-24)
Mechanical cues from the extracellular matrix (ECM) regulate various cellular processes via distinct mechanotransduction pathways. In breast cancer, increased ECM stiffness promotes epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT), cell invasion, and metastasis. Here, we identify a mechanosensitive EPHA2/LYN protein complex regulating EMT and
PloS one, 12(8), e0182128-e0182128 (2017-08-29)
Mesenchymal stem cells' (MSCs) fate is largely determined by the various topographical features and a range of extracellular matrix (ECM) components present in their niches. Apart from maintaining structural stability, they regulate cell morphology, division, proliferation, migration and differentiation among
Life sciences, 232, 116681-116681 (2019-07-26)
This study aimed to determine whether glucocorticoid receptor (GR) signaling, mitochondrial function, and local inflammation in the ovary and uterus are intrinsically different in rats with hyperandrogenism and insulin resistance compared to controls. Female Sprague Dawley rats were exposed to
JCI insight, 5 (2019-07-10)
Podoplanin, a small mucine-type transmembrane glycoprotein, has been recently shown to be expressed by lymphangiogenic, fibrogenic and mesenchymal progenitor cells in the acutely and chronically infarcted myocardium. Podoplanin binds to CLEC-2, a C-type lectin-like receptor 2 highly expressed by CD11bhigh
Nature materials, 19(7), 797-806 (2020-02-19)
Defining the interplay between the genetic events and microenvironmental contexts necessary to initiate tumorigenesis in normal cells is a central endeavour in cancer biology. We found that receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK)-Ras oncogenes reprogram normal, freshly explanted primary mouse and human
Journal of molecular endocrinology, 64(2), 77-90 (2019-12-20)
Lack of leptin production in ob/ob mice results in obesity and prediabetes that could be partly reversed by leptin supplementation. In the hypothalamus, leptin supports the production of prolactin-releasing peptide (PrRP), an anorexigenic neuropeptide synthesized and active in the brain.
Stem cells translational medicine, 6(2), 394-404 (2017-02-14)
Benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) is the overgrowth of prostate tissues with high prevalence in older men. BPH pathogenesis is not completely understood, but it is believed to be a result of de novo overgrowth of prostatic stroma. In this study
EMBO reports, 21(9), e50863-e50863 (2020-08-06)
We show that extracellular vesicles (EVs) released by mesenchymal cells (i.e., fibro-adipogenic progenitors-FAPs) mediate microRNA (miR) transfer to muscle stem cells (MuSCs) and that exposure of dystrophic FAPs to HDAC inhibitors (HDACis) increases the intra-EV levels of a subset of
Nature communications, 11(1), 5653-5653 (2020-11-08)
Scars are more severe when the subcutaneous fascia beneath the dermis is injured upon surgical or traumatic wounding. Here, we present a detailed analysis of fascia cell mobilisation by using deep tissue intravital live imaging of acute surgical wounds, fibroblast
Frontiers in molecular neuroscience, 10, 337-337 (2017-11-09)
Collagen VI is an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein playing a key role in skeletal muscles and whose deficiency leads to connective tissue diseases in humans and in animal models. However, most studies have been focused on skeletal muscle features. We
Taiwanese journal of obstetrics & gynecology, 53(2), 151-157 (2014-07-16)
Liver fibrosis results from the wound healing response to chronic liver damage. Advanced liver fibrosis results in cirrhosis and liver failure, and liver transplantation is often the only option for effective therapy; however, the shortage of available donor livers limits
Macromolecular bioscience, 14(7), 943-952 (2014-04-18)
Oleyl dextran-coated magnetic nanoclusters (ODMCs) are fabricated for the accurate detection of macrophage-rich atherosclerotic plaques using magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Dextran is introduced to the cluster surface of magnetic nanocrystals (MNCs) through self-assembly using amphiphilic oleic acid-conjugated dextran (ODex) to
Materials (Basel, Switzerland), 12(4) (2019-02-23)
Cartilage defects and diseases remain major clinical issues in orthopaedics. Biomanufacturing is now a tangible option for the delivery of bioscaffolds capable of regenerating the deficient cartilage tissue. However, several limitations of in vitro and experimental animal models pose serious
Polymers, 11(6) (2019-06-19)
Excellent wound dressing is essential for effective wound repair and regeneration. However, natural polymeric skin substitutes often lack mechanical strength and hydrophilicity. One way to overcome this limitation is to use biodegradable polymers with high mechanical strength and low skin-irritation
