Background: Heart transplant is life-saving for children with end-stage congenital heart disease or acquired heart failure. Critical illness following transplantation can include acute kidney injury (AKI). There is little data on the epidemiology of, risk factors for, or impact on outcomes of...

Angiostatin inhibits endothelial MMP-2 and MMP-14 expression: A hypoxia specific mechanism of action
Download2013
Zielnik-Drabik, B., Jurasz, P., Radziwon-Balicka, A., Moncada de la Rosa, C., Ramer, C.
Angiostatin is an angiogenesis inhibitor in part generated by and released from platelets. Since platelets upon thrombus formation can give rise to areas of hypoxia, we investigated the effects of angiostatin on endothelial cell migration and apoptosis during hypoxia. Human microvascular...

COUP-TF1 antagonizes Nkx25-mediated activation of the calreticulin gene during cardiac development
Download2001-01-01
Guo, Lei, Lynch, Jeffrey, Nakamur, Kimitoshi, Fliegel, Larry, Kasahara, Hideko, Izumo, Seigo, Komuro, Issei, Agellon, Luis B., Michalak, Marek
Calreticulin, a Ca2+ binding chaperone of the endoplasmic reticulum, is also highly expressed in the embryonic heart, and knockout of the calreticulin gene is lethal during embryogenesis because of impaired cardiac development. The protein is down-regulated after birth, and elevated expression of...

Divine Corporeality: Remembering Yhwh's Different Body Parts in Late Persian/Early Hellenistic Yehud/Judah
DownloadSpring 2017
In an effort to contribute to the rich and ongoing conversation on divine anthropomorphism(s), this work examines references to Yhwh’s various body parts in Late Persian/Early Hellenistic period texts of (what is now known in scholarly circles as) the Hebrew Bible from the perspective of social...

Epidermal Growth Factor-like domain 7 (EGFL7) is a secreted angiogenic factor that is almost exclusively expressed by endothelial cells. High EGFL7 expression occurs during physiological angiogenesis, under pathological conditions, and in solid tumor angiogenesis. Evidence suggests that EGFL7...

Heart transplantation (HTx) is a life-saving intervention for patients with end-stage heart failure. Nonetheless, the development of Chronic Allograft Vasculopathy (CAV) limits the longevity of transplanted cardiac allografts and the survival of recipients. The pathogenesis of CAV begins with a...

Exploiting the Enhanced Permeability and Retention Effect for the Targeting of Tumors with 18F-SiFA Polymer Nanoparticles
DownloadFall 2017
Over the last several decades great progress has been made in cancer diagnosis and detection. One foundation of this progress has been improved imaging technologies. Among the most promising imaging technologies for cancer detection is Positron Emission Tomography (PET). PET imaging allows for...

Angiogenesis, the process of forming new blood vessels from a pre-exciting vasculature, is an essential component of embryonic development, tissue remodelling, wound healing, and tumor growth. This process is strictly regulated by a vast array of cellular signalling pathways involving kinases,...
