Vascular remodeling represents a pathological basis for myocardial pathologies, including myocardial hypertrophy and myocardial infarction, which can ultimately lead to heart failure. The molecular mechanism of angiotensin II (Ang II)-induced vascular remodeling following myocardial infarction reperfusion is complex and not yet fully understood. In this study, we examined the effect of Ang II infusion on cardiac vascular remodeling in mice.

Article Synopsis
  • Stroke is a major cause of long-term disability, and effective rehabilitation is crucial for recovery; Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is being explored as a complementary approach.
  • The study investigates the relationship between specific TCM syndromes (like Blood stasis and Qi deficiency) and neurological deficits (such as motor and cognitive impairments) in stroke patients during recovery.
  • Findings indicate significant links between certain TCM syndromes and the severity of neurological deficits, suggesting these syndromes could inform personalized rehabilitation strategies and improve patient outcomes when integrated with conventional treatments.

A palladium-catalyzed carbonylative Sonogashira/annulation reaction for the synthesis of indolo[1,2-]isoquinolines has been developed. Tetracyclic 6/5/6/6 indoline skeletons were synthesized in moderate to good yields from easily available 2-bromo--(2-iodophenyl)benzamides and terminal alkynes. Notably, this efficient methodology established three C-C bonds and a C-N bond through a one-step transformation and provided a new method for the synthesis of indolo[1,2-]isoquinoline derivatives.

Metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a mostly incurable disease. The fact that the identity of the mechanisms that regulate metastasis in HCC is known hampers the development of anti-metastatic therapies. Currently, there is no effective treatment for HCC once it is progressed to metastatic stage.
