The 42 amino acid form of β amyloid (Aβ 42 ) plays a pivotal role in neurotoxicity and the
activation of mononuclear phagocytes in Alzheimer's disease (AD). Our recent study revealed …

We describe the lesions of extrapulmonary lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) affecting the
lymph nodes of the mediastinum and retroperitoneum in 22 women (mean age ± SD, 42.4 ± …

Immunohistochemical and confocal microscopic studies were made on lung tissue from 10
women with lymphangioleiomyomatosis (LAM) to evaluate the distribution of estrogen …

A review is presented of the clinical and morphological manifestations of lymphangioleiomyomatosis
(LAM), a systemic disorder of unknown etiology that affects women. The clinical …

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide.
Compared to traditional therapeutic strategies, three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting is one of the …

Stimulation of rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) by platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)
transiently increased the intracellular concentration of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). …

Human diploid fibroblasts eventually lose the capacity to replicate in culture and enter a viable

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) have been implicated as potential modulators of apoptosis.
Conversely, experiments under hypoxic conditions have suggested that apoptosis could …

In a variety of non-phagocytic cell types, there is a marked increase in intracellular levels of
reactive oxygen species (ROS), including superoxide and H 2 O 2 , after ligand stimulation. …

Background— Delivery and tracking of endomyocardial stem cells are limited by the inability
to image transplanted cells noninvasively in the beating heart. We hypothesized that …
