The canonical function of these proteins is to release nucleotides that act as purinergic signalling at the cell membrane or Ca2+ channels at the endoplasmic reticulum membrane. These two forms of signalling are essential for autocrine and paracrine signalling in health, and alterations in this signalling have been implicated in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Many musculoskeletal and cardiovascular diseases are largely the result of a lack of physical activity which causes altered gene expression. Considering exercise training has been shown to alter a wide array of gene expression in musculoskeletal tissues, understanding the interaction between exercise training, gene function and expression in relevant diseases is warranted. With regards to pannexins, multiple publications have shown that exercise training can influence pannexin expression and may influence the significance of its function in certain diseases. This review further discusses the potential interaction between exercise training and pannexin biology in relevant tissues and disease models. We propose that exercise training in relevant animal and human models will provide a more comprehensive understanding of the implications of pannexin biology in disease.","PeriodicalId":17530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Research","volume":"60 2","pages":"114-124"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10138452","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Restenosis often occurs as a response to procedure-induced arterial damage. Reducing vascular injury during endovascular revascularization may improve its success rate. This study developed and validated an ex vivo flow model using porcine iliac arteries, obtained from a local abattoir. Twenty arteries (of 10 pigs) were equally allocated to two groups: a mock-treated control group and an endovascular intervention group. Arteries of both groups were perfused with porcine blood for 9 min, including 3 min of balloon angioplasty in the intervention group. Vessel injury was assessed by calculating the presence of endothelial cell denudation, vasomotor function, and histopathological analysis. MR imaging displayed balloon positioning and inflation. Endothelial cell staining showed 76% of denudation after ballooning compared to 6% in the control group (p < 0.001). This was confirmed by histopathological analysis, showing a significantly reduced endothelial nuclei count after ballooning compared to the controls (median: 22 vs. 37 nuclei/mm, p = 0.022). In the intervention group, vasoconstriction and endothelium-dependent relaxation were significantly reduced (p < 0.05).We present an ex vivo flow model to test the effects of endovascular therapy on the vessel's wall morphology, endothelial denudation, and endothelial-dependent vasomotor function under physiological conditions. Additionally, it allows the future testing of human arterial tissue.","PeriodicalId":17530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Research","volume":"60 1","pages":"1-11"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"9287238","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study describes a convenient and efficient method to obtain mouse CVSMCs by enzyme digestion.Methods: Mouse circle of Willis was isolated, digested, and cultured with platelet-derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) to promote CVSMC growth, and CVSMCs were identified by morphology, immunofluorescence analysis, and flow cytometry. The effect of PDGF-BB on vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) proliferation was evaluated by cell counting kit (CCK)-8 assay, morphological observations, Western blotting, and flow cytometry.Results: CVSMCs cultured in a PDGF-BB-free culture medium had a typical peak-to-valley growth pattern after approximately 14 days. Immunofluorescence staining and flow cytometry detected strong positive expression of the cell type-specific markers alpha-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), smooth muscle myosin heavy chain 11 (SMMHC), smooth muscle protein 22 (SM22), calponin, and desmin. In the CCK-8 assay and Western blotting, cells incubated with PDGF-BB had significantly enhanced proliferation compared to those without PDGF-BB.Conclusion: We obtained highly purified VSMCs from the mouse circle of Willis using simple methods, providing experimental materials for studying the pathogenesis and treatment of neurovascular diseases in vitro.

Twenty pairs of subjects conformed to strict matching and were finally included in the statistical analysis. The two groups of patients differed significantly in white blood cell count and percentage of neutrophils (p < 0.05); however, there were no significant differences in D-dimer, procalcitonin, and BNP levels. The two groups of patients did not differ significantly with respect to the incidence of the following indicators: upper gastrointestinal bleeding; pulmonary infection; venous thrombosis; vasospasms; seizures; and chills (p > 0.05).Conclusion: Mild therapeutic hypothermia in target vessels plus endovascular thrombectomy was shown to be safe in patients with acute large vessel occlusion cerebral infarction.","PeriodicalId":17530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Research","volume":" ","pages":"227-233"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10614551/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10110364","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ECs were transfected with Cx43 cDNA and Cx43 siRNA and then exposed to 5 or 12 dyne/cm2. Immunofluorescence staining was used to detect the expression of SM22α, Cx43, and acetylated α-tubulin in ECs. Western blotting was used to detect the protein expression of α-SMA, CD31, Cx43, H1-calponin, Ift88, and p-smad3 in ECs.Results: The expression of αSMA, SM22α, and Cx43 was significantly increased, and CD31 was markedly decreased in ECs treated with laminar shear stress at 5 dyn/cm2. The Cx43 cDNA transfection could induce the expression of SM22α or H1-calponin and attenuate CD31 expression in ECs. Also, Cx43 overexpression harms cilia formation in ECs exposed to 5 dyn/cm2, accompanied with the regulated Ift88 and smad signaling.Conclusions: This study found that laminar shear stress at 5 dyn/cm2 would increase the expression of Cx43 to facilitate the EndMT process of ECs, associated with morphological changes in primary cilia and the decreased expression of Ift88 in ECs.","PeriodicalId":17530,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Vascular Research","volume":" ","pages":"204-212"},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10614473/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"10226346","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
