Journal ArticleDOI

Strong Induction of Members of the Chitinase Family of Proteins in Atherosclerosis Chitotriosidase and Human Cartilage gp-39 Expressed in Lesion Macrophages

TL;DR: It is shown for the first time that chitotriosidase and HC gp-39 expression was strongly upregulated in distinct subsets of macrophages in the atherosclerotic plaque, hypothesizing a role in cell migration and tissue remodeling during atherogenesis.
Journal ArticleDOI

Disruption of platelet-derived chemokine heteromers prevents neutrophil extravasation in acute lung injury.

TL;DR: A novel function of platelet-derived chemokine heteromers during ALI is identified and means for therapeutic interference are demonstrated, suggesting a sequential participation of platelets and neutrophils.
Journal ArticleDOI

The value of motor evoked potentials in reducing paraplegia during thoracoabdominal aneurysm repair.

TL;DR: Monitoring MEPs is a highly reliable technique to assess spinal cord ischemia during TAAA repair and could restore spinal cord waschemia in most patients, preventing early and late paraplegia in all type I patients.
