This review aims to survey the current state of mechanotransduction in vascular smooth
muscle cells (VSMCs) and endothelial cells (ECs), including their sensing of mechanical …

Atherosclerotic vascular disease and its complications are among the top causes of mortality
worldwide. In the vascular lumen, atherosclerotic plaques are not randomly distributed …

The surface of endothelial cells is covered with cell adhesion molecules, including E‐
selectin, intercellula adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM‐1), and vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 …

Abstract Expression of microRNA (miR)-126 is enriched in endothelial cells (ECs) and
endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs). MiR-126 is considered a master regulator of …

For decades, we have known that exercise training exerts beneficial effects on the human
body, and clear evidence is available that a higher fitness level is associated with a lower …

This review article is intended to describe the strong relationship between oxidative stress
and vascular disease. Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in the …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are short, noncoding RNAs that influence biological processes by
regulating gene expression after transcription. It was recently discovered that miRNAs are …

The glycocalyx attached to the apical surface of vascular endothelial cells is a rich network
of proteoglycans, glycosaminoglycans, and glycoproteins with instrumental roles in vascular …

Sepsis is a multiple organ dysfunction elicited by the dysregulated host immune response to
microbial infection. Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a serious and acute …

We aimed to identify miRNAs whose expression levels in fetal tissues are altered by
exposure to a diabetic milieu and elucidate the impact on target protein expression …
