Researchers at University Hospital of the Technical University of Munich have found that cannabidiol (CBD) may help protect lung endothelial cells from the harmful side effects of radiation, which ...

The study demonstrates that activating the vitamin D receptor (VDR) with calcitriol suppresses cell proliferation in ...

Moreover, activation of p53 can promote cell cycle arrest, DNA repair, or apoptosis, depending on the extent of damage while disruption of p53 function may impair the lung’s ability to repair and ...

Disturbed flow generates oscillatory shear stress (OSS), which in turn leads to endothelial inflammation and atherosclerosis. Piezo1, a biomechanical force sensor, plays a crucial role in the ...

Low and disturbed blood flow drives the progression of arterial diseases including atherosclerosis and aneurysms. The endothelial response to flow and its interactions with recruited platelets and ...
