Sorghum bicolor L. Moench is widely grown all over the world for food and feed. The effects of sorghum extracts on general inflammation have been previously studied, but its anti-vascular inflammatory effects are unknown. Therefore, this study inve...
Vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) migration and proliferation is central to neointima formation in vein graft failure following coronary artery bypass. However, there are currently no pharmacological interventions that prevent vein graft failure thr...
BACKGROUND: Vascular smooth muscle cells loaded with cholesterol (foam-VSMCs) play a crucial role in the progression of human atherosclerosis. Exchange Protein Directly Activated by cAMP 1 (EPAC1) is a critical protein in the regulation of vascular t...

Soft organisms such as earthworms can access confined, narrow spaces, inspiring scientists to fabricate soft robots for in vivo manipulation of cells or tissues and minimally invasive surgery. We report a super-soft and super-elastic magnetic DNA hyd...
Here we present a microengineered soft-robotic in vitro platform developed by integrating a pneumatically regulated novel elastomeric actuator with primary culture of human cells. This system is capable of generating dynamic bending motion akin to th...
BACKGROUND: Type II diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is strongly linked with a heightened risk of coronary artery disease (CAD). Exploring biological targets common to T2DM and CAD is essential for CAD intervention strategies.
Coagulation within blood vessels is a major cause of cardiovascular disease and global mortality, highlighting the urgent need for effective anticoagulant strategies. In this study, we introduce a dynamic and highly efficient anticoagulant platform, ...
