Epac as a tractable therapeutic target
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)In 1957, cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) was identified as the first secondary messenger, and the first signaling cascade discovered was the cAMP-protein kinase A (PKA) pathway. Since then, cAMP has received increasing ... -
Experimental and numerical investigation on soft tissue dynamic response due to turbulence-induced arterial vibration.
( Springer Verlag , 2019 , Article)Peripheral arterial occlusive disease is a serious cardiovascular disorder. The arterial occlusion leads to turbulent flow and arterial sound generation on the inner vessel wall. Stenosis-induced vibro-acoustic waves ... -
Material modeling and recent findings in transcatheter aortic valve implantation simulations
( Elsevier , 2024 , Article Review)Background and objective: Transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI) has significantly transformed the management of aortic valve (AV) diseases, presenting a minimally invasive option compared to traditional surgical ... -
Role of RhoA and Rho-associated kinase in phenotypic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells: Implications for vascular function
( Elsevier , 2022 , Article Review)Cardiovascular disease (CVD) continues to be the primary cause of global mortality. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) are integral components of vascular structure and function, evident by their vital roles in modulating ... -
Sestrin2 suppression aggravates oxidative stress and apoptosis in endothelial cells subjected to pharmacologically induced endoplasmic reticulum stress
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is an inflammatory response that contributes to endothelial dysfunction, a hallmark of cardiovascular diseases, in close interplay with oxidative stress. Recently, Sestrin2 (SESN2) emerged ... -
Stem cell-based approaches in cardiac tissue engineering: controlling the microenvironment for autologous cells
( Elsevier , 2021 , Article)Cardiovascular disease is one of the leading causes of mortality worldwide. Cardiac tissue engineering strategies focusing on biomaterial scaffolds incorporating cells and growth factors are emerging as highly promising ...
