Spatial Atlas for Mapping Vascular Microcalcification Using 18F-NaF PET/CT: Application in Hyperphosphatemic Familial Tumoral Calcinosis
CONCLUSIONS: This technique affords the ability to visualize spatial patterns of the active microcalcification process in the peripheral vasculature. Further, this technique affords the ability to track microcalcifications at precise locations not only across time but also across subjects. This technique is readily adaptable to other diseases of vascular calcification and may represent a significant advance in the field of vascular biology.PMID:38660800 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320455 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Mild Hypoxia Accelerates Cerebral Cavernous Malformation Disease Through CX3CR1-CX3CL1 Signaling
CONCLUSIONS: Our study reveals that interactions between CX3CR1 and CX3CL1 can modify CCM neuropathology when lesions are accelerated by environmental hypoxia. Moreover, a hypoxic environment or hypoxia signaling caused by CCM disease influences the balance between neuroinflammation and neuroprotection mediated by CX3CR1-CX3CL1 signaling. These results establish CX3CR1 as a genetic marker for patient stratification and a potential predictor of CCM aggressiveness.PMID:38660801 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320367 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Wnt Signaling Inhibition Prevents Postnatal Inflammation and Disease Progression in Mouse Congenital Myxomatous Valve Disease
CONCLUSIONS: Wnt signaling is involved in the initiation of mitral valve abnormalities and inflammation but is not responsible for later-stage valve disease progression once it has been initiated. Thus, Wnt signaling contributes to MVD progression in a time-dependent manner and provides a promising therapeutic target for the early treatment of congenital MVD in Marfan syndrome.PMID:38660802 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320388 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Differential Impact In Vivo of Pf4- ΔCre-Mediated and Gp1ba-ΔCre-Mediated Depletion of Cyclooxygenase-1 in Platelets in Mice
CONCLUSIONS: Both approaches to Cox-1 deletion similarly restrain thrombogenesis, but a differential impact on Cox-1-dependent prostanoid formation by the vasculature may contribute to an inflammatory phenotype and accelerated atherogenesis in Pf4-ΔCre mice.PMID:38660804 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320295 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)

Role of the Lymphatics in Cardiac Disease
Arterioscler Thromb Vasc Biol. 2024 Apr 18. doi: 10.1161/ATVBAHA.124.319854. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTCardiovascular diseases remain the largest cause of death worldwide with recent evidence increasingly attributing the development and progression of these diseases to an exacerbated inflammatory response. As a result, significant research is now focused on modifying the immune environment to prevent the disease progression. This in turn has highlighted the lymphatic system in the pathophysiology of cardiovascular diseases owing, in part, to its established function in immune cell surveillance and trafficking. In this ...

Atherosclerotic Plaque Epigenetic Age Acceleration Predicts a Poor Prognosis and Is Associated With Endothelial-to-Mesenchymal Transition in Humans
CONCLUSIONS: Plaque EAA is a strong and independent marker of poor outcome in patients with severe atherosclerosis. Plaque EAA was linked to mesenchymal endothelial and smooth muscle cells. Endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition was associated with EAA, which was experimentally validated. Epigenetic aging mechanisms may provide new targets for treatments that reduce atherosclerosis complications.PMID:38634280 | DOI:10.1161/ATVBAHA.123.320692 (Source: Arteriosclerosis, Thrombosis and Vascular Biology)
