Jia M (2020) Vascular-cognitive impairment after chronic high-thoracic spinal cord injury. University of British Columbia, Experimental Medicine Thesis. PMID: 0

Objective: To investigate whether chronic disruption of cardiovascular control following experimental spinal cord injury (SCI) results in cerebrovascular decline and vascular cognitive impairment.

Summary: Chronic experimental SCI is associated with structural alteration and endothelial dysfunction in cerebral arteries that likely contributes to significantly reduced CBF and vascular cognitive impairment.

Usage: Immunofluorescence (1:600)

Xiao D, Deng Q, Guo Y, Huang X, Zou M, Zhong J, Rao P, Xu Z, Liu Y, Hu Y, Shen Y, Jin K, Xiang M (2020) Generation of self-organized sensory ganglion organoids and retinal ganglion cells from fibroblasts. Sci Adv 6(22):eaaz5858. doi: 10.1126/sciadv.aaz5858 PMID: 32523990

Objective: To examine whether sensory ganglion (SG) organoids can be reprogrammed by transcription factors (TFs) into sensory ganglion (SG) neurons.

Summary: This study identifies a combination of triple TFs Ascl1, Brn3b/3a, and Isl1 (ABI) as an efficient means to reprogram mouse and human fibroblasts into self-organized and networked induced SG (iSG) organoids. iSG organoids may serve as a model to decipher the pathogenesis of sensorineural diseases and screen effective drugs and a source for cell replacement therapy.

Objective: The role of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS) in the peri-implantation endometrium.

Summary: Altered vasculature of the endometrium in the peri-implantation period is detrimental to implantation and may lead to recurrent miscarriage. Being an angiogenic mediator, endometrial RAS may play a role around the time of embryo implantation, affecting subsequent pregnancy outcomes.

Objective: To elucidate whether Baoyuan decoction (BYD) ameliorates apoptosis to protect against heart failure via the AT1-Cardiac ankyrin repeat protein (CARP) signaling pathway.

Summary: BYD improves cardiac function and protects against cardiomyocytes injury by inhibiting apoptosis via regulating the AT1-CARP signaling pathway.

Objective: To examine the anatomical and functional aspects of zinc in the circadian system.

Summary: Neither enhancement nor chelation of free zinc at either the SCN or IGL altered circadian responses to phase-shifting light in hamsters.

Usage: Retinal immunohistochemistry (1:5000) included a 20-min wash in 4% PFA prior to initiation of the IHC protocol.

J Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone Syst 21(2):1470320320919607. doi: 10.1177/1470320320919607 PMID: 32370637

Objective: To assess the renal expression of angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R), and MAS receptor in human type 2 diabetic nephropathy (DN).

Summary: Renal expression levels of AT1R increase during the early stages of DN, ARB reducing AT1R while increasing MAS receptor. Therefore, ARB should be used as soon as possible in patients with DN.
