Compliance-matching vascular grafts with personalization potential

Aortic diseases are characterized by dire prognosis and inadequate diagnosis, owing to their insidious yet lethal nature. Aortopathies, namely aortic aneurysms and dissections, along with certain congenital diseases, might necessitate surgical replacement ...

Influence of Oxidative Stress on Time-Resolved Oxygen Detection by [Ru(Phen)3]2+ In Vivo and In Vitro

Georges Wagnières, Veronika Huntosova

Detection of tissue and cell oxygenation is of high importance in fundamental biological and in many medical applications, particularly for monitoring dysfunction in the early stages of cancer. Measurements of the luminescence lifetimes of molecular probe ...

Chemo-manipulation of tumor blood vessels by a metal-based anticancer complex enhances antitumor therapy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Hubert van den Bergh, Tina Riedel

Human pleural mesothelioma is an incurable and chemoresistant cancer. Using a nude mouse xenograft model of human pleural mesothelioma, we show that RAPTA-T, a compound undergoing preclinical evaluation, enhances tumor vascular function by decreasing blood ...

Increased sediment oxygen flux in lakes and reservoirs: The impact of hypolimnetic oxygenation

Alfred Johny Wüest, Maryam Rezvani

Hypolimnetic oxygenation is an increasingly common lake management strategy for mitigating hypoxia/anoxia and associated deleterious effects on water quality. A common effect of oxygenation is increased oxygen consumption in the hypolimnion and predicting ...

Statistical parametric mapping of stimuli evoked changes in total blood flow velocity in the mouse cortex obtained with extended-focus optical coherence microscopy

Theo Lasser, Paul James Marchand, Vincent Khashayar Shamaei, Arno Pino Bouwens, Tristan Bolmont, Daniel Pawel Szlag, Jérôme Extermann, David Nguyen

Functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) imaging is the current gold-standard in neuroimaging. fMRI exploits local changes in blood oxygenation to map neuronal activity over the entire brain. However, its spatial resolution is currently limited to a few hundre ...

Hyperpolarized 6Li as a probe for hemoglobin oxygenation level

Rolf Gruetter, Mor-Miri Mishkovsky, Arnaud Comment, Ruud van Heeswijk, Riccardo Balzan

Hyperpolarization by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) is a versatile technique to dramatically enhance the nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signal intensity of insensitive long-T1 nuclear spins such as 6 Li. The 6 Li longitudinal relaxation o ...

Angiostatic treatment prior to chemo- or photodynamic therapy improves anti-tumor efficacy

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Débora Bonvin, Edoardo Scherrer

Tumor vasculature is known to be poorly organized leading to increased leakage of molecules to the extravascular space. This process can potentially increase interstitial fluid pressure impairing intra-tumoral blood flow and oxygen supply, and can affect d ...

How to prevent venous cannula orifice obstruction during extracorporeal circulation

Julien Favre

Venous cannula orifice obstruction is an underestimated problem during augmented cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB), which can potentially be reduced with redesigned, virtually wall-less cannula designs versus traditional percutaneous control venous cannulas. A ...

Low-dose angiostatic tyrosine kinase inhibitors improve photodynamic therapy for cancer: lack of vascular normalization

Paul Joseph Dyson, Patrycja Nowak-Sliwinska, Débora Bonvin

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) is an effective clinical treatment for a number of different cancers. PDT can induce hypoxia and inflammation, pro-angiogenic side effects, which may counteract its angio-occlusive mechanism. The combination of PDT with anti-angi ...

Effects of Robotic Knee Exoskeleton on Human Energy Expenditure

Tadej Petric

A number of studies discuss the design and control of various exoskeleton mechanisms, yet relatively few address the effect on the energy expenditure of the user. In this paper, we discuss the effect of a performance augmenting exoskeleton on the metabolic ...
