Inflammatory role and prognostic value of platelet chemokines in acute coronary syndrome
Xavier Blanchet,K. Cesarek,J. Brandt,Heiko Herwald,Daniel Teupser,Helmut Küchenhoff,Ela Karshovska,Sebastian F. Mause,Wolfgang Siess,Hermann E. Wasmuth,Oliver Soehnlein,Rory R. Koenen,Christian Weber,P. von Hundelshausen +13 more
TL;DR: Platelet-derived products appear to dominate the inflammatory response during ACS, adding to the emerging evidence that ACS per se may promote vascular inflammation.
Functional alterations of myeloid cell subsets in hyperlipidaemia: relevance for atherosclerosis.
TL;DR: A large number of the cells involved in atherosclerotic plaques have been identified as monocytes/Macrophages, and the effects of hyperlipidaemia were related to these cells.
Accurate mass measurements of very short-lived nuclei. Prerequisites for high-accuracy investigations of superallowed β-decays
Frank Herfurth,Alban Kellerbauer,F. Ames,Georges Audi,D. Beck,Klaus Blaum,Georg Bollen,O. Engels,H.-J. Kluge,David Lunney,R. B. Moore,Markku Oinonen,E. Sauvan,C. Scheidenberger,Stefan Schwarz,G. Sikler,Christian Weber +16 more
Role of Extracellular RNA in Atherosclerotic Plaque Formation in Mice
Sakine Simsekyilmaz,Hector A. Cabrera-Fuentes,Svenja Meiler,Sawa Kostin,Yvonne Baumer,Elisa A. Liehn,Christian Weber,William A. Boisvert,K.T. Preissner,Alma Zernecke +9 more
TL;DR: Because eRNA is associated with atherosclerotic lesions and contributes to inflammation-dependent plaque progression in Atherosclerosis-prone mice, its targeting with RNase1 may serve as a new treatment option against atherosclerosis.
SDF-1α/CXCR4 Axis Is Instrumental in Neointimal Hyperplasia and Recruitment of Smooth Muscle Progenitor Cells
Alma Zernecke,Andreas Schober,Ilze Bot,Philipp von Hundelshausen,Elisa A. Liehn,Barbara Möpps,Mathias Mericskay,Peter Gierschik,Erik A.L. Biessen,Christian Weber +9 more
TL;DR: The SDF-1&agr;/CXCR4 axis is pivotal for vascular remodeling by recruiting a subset of SMC progenitors in response to apoptosis and in concert with platelets, epitomizing its importance for tissue repair and identifying a prime target to limit lesion development.
