Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from various stem cell sources induce cardioprotective effects during ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). These have been attributed mainly to the antiapoptotic, proangiogenic, microRNA (miRNA) cargo within the stem cell ...
In the field of gene therapy, chitosan (CS) gained interest for its promise as a non-viral DNA vector. However, commercial sources of CS lack precise characterization and do not generally reach sufficient solubility in aqueous media for in vitro and in viv ...
Aerosols that are efficient ice-nucleating particles (INPs) are crucial for the formation of cloud ice via heterogeneous nucleation in the atmosphere. The distribution of INPs on a large spatial scale and as a function of height determines their impact on ...
The development of new therapeutic approaches that aim to help the body exert its natural mechanisms for vascularized tissue growth (therapeutic angiogenesis) has become one of the most active areas of tissue engineering. Through basic research, several gr ...

Capillary Morphogenesis Gene 2 (CMG2) is a 55kDa single-pass transmembrane protein best described as the main Anthrax Toxin Receptor. However, CMG2 physiological role remains elusive and understanding better its in vivo function was the main objective of m ...
Aims: Patency failure of small vascular synthetic grafts is still a major problem for coronary and peripheral revascularization. Thus, three new surface coatings of small synthetic grafts were tested in an acute pig model to evaluate their thrombogenicity ...
