Zachary J. Ladd,Gang Su,Joseph B. Hartman,Guanyi Lu,Sara E. Hensley,Gilbert R. Upchurch,Ashish Sharma +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper , spironolactone was used to mitigate abdominal aortic aneurysms via inhibition of EC-dependent ATP release in a topical elastase AAA model.
22-VIRC-451-AHA-VD A Chimeric Antigen Receptor Targeting Malonaldehyde-modi fi ed Low-density lipoprotein Cholesterol Activates Regulatory T Cells in the Presence of Human Atherosclerotic Plaque Inhibition of TLR-7 Signaling Attenuates Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms and Dissection Formation
TL;DR: In this article , a CAR targeting low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL), a key component of atherosclerosis, was shown to activate regulatory T cells (Tregs) in the presence of MDA-LDL, and the TLR-7 signaling triggered by self-RNAs sub-stantiates chronic in ammation, promoting TAAD formation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Presidential Forum Discussion: Development of Surgical Scientists.
TL;DR: There are a number of sources of funding available to surgical faculty to support research, including governmental funding agencies, private industry, foundations, and professional societies, which means surgeons can provide meaningful results.
