Various Hydrogel Types as a Potential In Vitro Angiogenesis Model.

Gels

December 2024

Biointerface Laboratory, Helmholtz-Institut for Biomedical Engineering, University Hospital RWTH Aachen, Pauwelsstraße 30, 52074 Aachen, Germany.

Angiogenesis, the formation of new blood vessels, is a fundamental process in both physiological repair mechanisms and pathological conditions, including cancer and chronic inflammation. Hydrogels are commonly used as in vitro models to mimic the extracellular matrix (ECM) and support endothelial cell behavior during angiogenesis. Mesenchymal stem cells further augment cell and tissue growth and are therefore widely used in regenerative medicine.

Cardiac catheterization in pulmonary arterial hypertension: Tips and tricks to enhance diagnosis and guide therapy.

Int J Cardiol Congenit Heart Dis

September 2024

Adult Congenital Heart Centre and Centre for Pulmonary Hypertension, Royal Brompton Hospital, London, United Kingdom.

Cardiac catheterization (CC) is essential for the diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension (PH), and for its characterisation. It allows distinction between pre- and post-capillary PH which, when integrated with other non-invasive data, facilitates classification into one of the 5 diagnostic groups defined by international PH guidelines. CC also provides valuable information for the risk stratification of patients with PH, guiding management and the type and intensity of treatment.

Nailfold videocapillaroscopy findings and associations with organ involvement in mixed connective tissue disease.

Clin Exp Rheumatol

December 2024

Service de Rhumatologie, Hôpital Cochin, AP-HP Centre Université Paris Cité, Paris, and INSERM U1016, Institut Cochin, CNRS UMR8104, Paris, France.

Objectives: To investigate nailfold videocapillaroscopy (NVC) abnormalities in mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD).

Methods: Patients with MCTD followed at the Rheumatology Department in Cochin Hospital (Paris, France) were identified based on individual record review. Diagnosis of MCTD required fulfillment of one of the three sets of classification criteria.

Acute lung injury (ALI) and its severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), result from pulmonary edema and alveolar-capillary barrier disruption due to inflammation, often triggered by conditions like sepsis. Sepsis-induced ALI (SALI) involves extensive damage to vascular endothelium and alveolar epithelium, leading to respiratory failure. Our study explores ferroptosis, an iron-dependent cell death pathway, and calcium dysregulation in SALI.
