Effect of electroacupuncture on vascular remodeling in rats with cerebral ischemia by regulating irisin based on VEGF/Akt/eNOS signaling pathway.

Brain Res Bull

School of Rehabilitation Science, Shanghai University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Shanghai, China; Department of Rehabilitation Medicine, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China; National Center for Neurological Disorders, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China; National Clinical Research Center for Geriatric Diseases, Huashan Hospital, Fudan University, Shanghai, China. Electronic address:

Objective: This study aimed to explore the cumulative effects and expression patterns of electroacupuncture (EA) on irisin secretion, observe the effects of EA on the recovery of neurobehavioral function and vascular remodeling after cerebral ischemia, and elucidate the mechanism by which EA promotes vascular remodeling by regulating irisin expression.

Methods: A rat model of left middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) was prepared, and EA was performed. Tissue distribution and expression of irisin were determined by immunofluorescence, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and Western blotting.

Department of Radiology, People's Hospital of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Urumqi, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, China. Electronic address:

3D BFFE and TRANCE can provide a visualization of pulmonary vessels without injection of contrast agent. T-SLIP can observe a large area of vessels using an arterial spin labeling technique. 3D BFFE and TRANCE with two T-SLIP placement strategies were compared on pulmonary artery imaging.

Purpose: To assess the efficacy of bolus injections of landiolol hydrochloride as premedication in coronary artery CT angiography (CCTA).

Methods: The study population consisted of 37 patients (17 female; median age, 56 years; IQR, 19 years; range, 19-88 years) who underwent CCTA after intravenous injection of landiolol hydrochloride due to a heart rate > 60 bpm. Landiolol hydrochloride was administered in a stepwise manner until a heart rate of ≤ 60 bpm was achieved or a maximum dose of 60 mg was reached after six injections.

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) is associated with low-grade inflammation, which can be exacerbated by renal artery stenosis (RAS) and renovascular hypertension, potentially worsening outcomes through pro-inflammatory cytokines. This study investigated whether mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) could reduce fat inflammation in pigs with MetS and RAS. Twenty-four pigs were divided into Lean (control), MetS, MetS + RAS, and MetS + RAS + MSCs.

Background: Erectile dysfunction is a condition with a rapidly increasing prevalence globally with a strong correlation to the increase in obesity and cardiovascular disease rates.

Aim: The aim of the current study is to investigate the potential role of tubacin, a histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitor, in restoring erectile function in a hypercholesterolemia-induced endothelial dysfunction model.

Methods: Thirty-nine male C57Bl/6 J mice were divided into 3 groups.
