Treatment with Evasin-3 reduces atherosclerotic vulnerability for ischemic stroke, but not brain injury in mice

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Katia Galan, Luciano Dos Santos Aggum Capettini, Jean-Christophe Copin, Danielle Gomes Passos Silva

Neutrophilic inflammation might have a pathophysiological role in both carotid plaque rupture and ischemic stroke injury. Here, we investigated the potential benefits of the CXC chemokine-binding protein Evasin-3, which potently inhibits chemokine bioactiv ...

PHD2 regulates arteriogenic macrophages through TIE2 signalling

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Ferdinando Pucci

Occlusion of the main arterial route redirects blood flow to the collateral circulation. We previously reported that macrophages genetically modified to express low levels of prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 2 (PHD2) display an arteriogenic phenotype, whi ...

Embryonic Stem Cell-Based Cardiopatches Improve Cardiac Function in Infarcted Rats

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

Pluripotent stem cell-seeded cardiopatches hold promise for in situ regeneration of infarcted hearts. Here, we describe a novel cardiopatch based on bone morphogenetic protein 2-primed cardiac-committed mouse embryonic stem cells, embedded into biodegradab ...

The Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2/Angiotensin-(1-7)/Mas receptor axis: A potential target for treating thrombotic diseases

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Danielle Gomes Passos Silva

Despite many therapeutic advances leading to increasingly effective drug treatments, thrombotic events (such as ischaemic stroke, pulmonary embolism, deep venous thrombosis and acute myocardial infarction) still represent a major worldwide cause of morbidi ...

The activation of the cannabinoid receptor type 2 reduces neutrophilic protease-mediated vulnerability in atherosclerotic plaques

Nikolaos Stergiopoulos, Katia Galan, Rafaela Fernandes Da Silva, Luciano Dos Santos Aggum Capettini

The activation of cannabinoid receptor type 2 (CB2)-mediated pathways might represent a promising anti-atherosclerotic treatment. Here, we investigated the expression of the endocannabinoid system in human carotid plaques and the impact of CB2 pharmacologi ...

Human embryonic stem cell-derived microvascular grafts for cardiac tissue preservation after myocardial infarction

Jeffrey Alan Hubbell

We present use of a synthetic, injectable matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)- responsive, bioactive hydrogel as an in situ forming scaffold to deliver thymosin beta 4 (T beta 4), a pro-angiogenic and pro-survival factor, along with vascular cells derived from ...

Macrophage skewing by Phd2 haplodeficiency prevents ischaemia by inducing arteriogenesis

Michele De Palma, Mario Leonardo Squadrito, Francine Jordan

PHD2 serves as an oxygen sensor that rescues blood supply by regulating vessel formation and shape in case of oxygen shortage. However, it is unknown whether PHD2 can influence arteriogenesis. Here we studied the role of PHD2 in collateral artery growth by ...

In vivo labelling of resting monocytes in the reticuloendothelial system with fluorescent iron oxide nanoparticles prior to injury reveals that they are mobilized to infarcted myocardium

Heinrich Hofmann, Jean-Noël Hyacinthe, Alke Fink

To evaluate the feasibility of loading resting monocytes/macrophages by intravenous (i.v.) injection of fluorescent iron oxide nanoparticles prior to injury and tracking of these cells in the very same animal to myocardial infarction (MI) by magnetic reson ...

Diffusion tensor imaging correlates with lesion volume in cerebral hemisphere infarctions

Silvia Marchesotti

Both a large lesion volume and abnormalities in diffusion tensor imaging are independently associated with a poor prognosis after cerebral infarctions. Therefore, we assume that they are associated. This study assessed the associations between lesion volum ...

Stem cell-based cardiovascular tissue engineering

Thomas Krähenbühl

Cardiovascular diseases, including myocardial infarction, are the leading cause of death worldwide for both men and women. Current therapies are limited by the restricted intrinsic regeneration capacity of the heart and by the lack of organs for transplant ...
