Huoxin Pill (HXP), a Traditional Chinese Medicine, is used widely to treat patients with coronary heart disease and angina pectoris in China. However, the underlying protective mechanism of HXP on cardiac apoptosis and fibrosis has never been evaluated. …

Combination therapies that target multiple pathways involved in immune rejection of transplants hold promise for patients in need of restorative surgery. Herein, a noninteracting multiphase molecular assembly approach is developed to crystallize …

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with inflammation and oxidative stress. Recently, we demonstrated that the chemokine-receptor CXCR2 plays a critical role in the recruitment of monocytes/macrophages and the development of hypertension and cardiac …

Type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension are two major risk factors leading to heart failure and cardiovascular damage. Lowering blood sugar by the sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor empagliflozin provides cardiac protection. We established a new …

Changes in soil physical properties due to traditional methods of puddling for lowland rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and post-rice legumes was investigated in ®eld experiments conducted on three sites in Indonesia and two in the Philippines over a …

Trabectedin (ET743) and lurbinectedin (PM01183) limit the production of inflammatory cytokines that are elevated during cancer cachexia. Mice carrying C26 colon adenocarcinoma display cachexia (i.e., premature death and body wasting with muscle, fat and …

The precise transplantation, long-term tracking, and maintenance of stem cells with maximizing therapeutic effect are significant challenges in stem cell-based therapy for stroke treatment. In this study, a unique core-shell labeling nanoagent was …

Aims: 1) Characterize the progression of exercise intolerance in monocrotaline-induced pulmonary hypertension (PH) in mice and 2) evaluate the therapeutic effect of aerobic exercise training (AET) on counteracting skeletal and cardiac dysfunction in PH. …

Stem cells have been used to promote the repair of rotator cuff injury, but their fate after transplantation is not clear. Therefore, contrast agents with good biocompatibility for labeling cell and a reliable technique to track cell are necessary. Here, …
