Relationship between vascular endothelium and periodontal disease in atherosclerotic lesions: Review article

Inflammation and endothelial dysfunction are linked to the pathogenesis of atherosclerotic disease. Recent studies suggest that periodontal infection and the ensuing increase in the levels of inflammatory markers may be associated with myocardial infarction, peripheral vascular disease and cerebrovascular disease. The present article aimed at reviewing contemporary data on the pathophysiology of vascular endothelium and its association with periodontitis in the scenario of cardiovascular disease.

Expression of mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 on vascular endothelium of gastric mucosa in patients with nodular gastritis

AIM:The interaction of mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 (MAdCAM-1) with integrin α4β7 mediates lymphocyte recruitment into mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT).Nodular gastritis is characterized by a unique military pattern on endoscopy representing increased numbers of lymphoid follicles with germinal center,strongly associated with H pylori infection.The purpose of this study was to address the implication of the MAdCAM-1/integrin β7 pathway in NG. METHODS:We studied 17 patients with NG and H pylori infection and 19 H pylori-positive and 14 H pylori-negative controls.A biopsy sample was taken from the antrum and snap-frozen for immunohistochemical analysis of MAdCAM- 1 and integrin β7.In simultaneous viewing of serial sections, the percentage of MAdCAM-1-positive to von Willebrand factor-positive vessels was calculated.We also performed immunostaining with anti-CD20,CD4,CD8 and CD68 antibodies to determine the lymphocyte subsets co- expressing integrin β7. RESULTS:Vascular endothelial MAdCAM-1 expression was more enhanced in gastric mucosa with than without H pylori infection.Of note,the percentages of MAdCAM-1-positive vessels were significantly higher in the lamina propria of NG patients than in H pylori-positive controls.Strong expression of MAdCAM-1 was identified adjacent to lymphoid follicles and dense lymphoid aggregates.Integrin β7-expressing mononuclear cells,mainly composed of CD20 and CD4 lymphocytes,were associated with vessels lined with MAdCAM-1-expressing endothelium.CONCLUSION: Our results suggest that the MAdCAM一1/ integrin a4p7 homing system may participate in gastric inflammation in response to H py/o}i-infection and contributes to MALT formation, typically leading to the development of NG.

The Role of Endoplasmic Reticulum Stress-related Apoptosis in Vascular Endothelium Pathogenesis

Vascular endothelium refers to a single layer of endothelial cells that line the inner surface of blood vessels,serving as barriers and transducers between the circulating blood in the lumen and the rest of the vessel wall.Endothelial cells play essential roles in many aspects of vascular biology,such as barrier functions,thrombosis/fibrinolysis,inflammation,angiogenesis,vasoconstriction and vasodilation.

Scutellarin Reduces Cerebral Ischemia Reperfusion Injury Involving in Vascular Endothelium Protection and PKG Signal

Flavonoid glycoside scutellarin(SCU)has been widely applied in the treatment of cerebral ischemic diseases in China.In this article,we conducted research on the working mechanisms of SCU in hypoxia reoxygenation(HR)injury of isolated cerebral basilar artery(BA)and erebral ischemia reperfusion(CIR)injury in rat models.In isolated rat BA rings,HR causes endothelial dysfunction(ED)and acetylcholine(ACh)induces endothelium-dependent vasodilation.The myography result showed that SCU(100μM)was able to significantly improve the endothelium-dependent vasodilation induced by Ach.However,SCU did not affect the ACh-induced relaxation in normal BA.Further studies suggested that SCU(10-1000μM)dose-dependently induced relaxation in isolated BA rings which were significantly blocked by the cGMP dependent protein kinase(PKG)inhibitor Rp-8-Br-cGMPs(PKGI-rp,4μM).Pre-incubation with SCU(500μM)reversed the impairment of endothelium-dependent vasodilation induced by HR,but the reversing effect was blocked if PKGI-rp(4μM)was added.The brain slice staining test in rats’model of middle cerebral artery occlusion(MCAO)induced CIR proved that the administration of SCU(45,90 mg/kg,iv)significantly reduced the area of cerebral infarction.The Western blot assay result showed that SCU(45 mg/kg,iv)increased brain PKG activity and PKG protein level after CIR surgery.In conclusion,our findings suggested that SCU possesses the ability of protecting brain cells against CIR injury through vascular endothelium protection and PKG signal.

Effects of PAF and PAF antagonist WEB 2170 on relaxation of vascular endothelium after brief deoxygenation and reoxygenation

By means of the tension determination of rat thoracic aortic ring. it was found that PAF depressed the acetylcholine (Ach)-induced relaxation of the rings, having undergone 20 min of deoxygenation followed by 30 min of reoxygenation, to 36. 1% of norepinephine(NE) precontraction. PAF receptor antagonist WEB 2170 markedly improved the Ach-induced relaxation of the brief deoxygenated and reoxygenated rings to 86. 7 % of NE precontraction. The results indicated that PAF may be one of the mediators involved in the endothelium relaxation dysfunction related to brief deoxygenation and reoxygenation, and that PAF antagonist WEB 2170 has the protective effect on endothelium relaxation function.

Upper extremity vascular injuries:Etiology,management and outcome

BACKGROUND Vascular injuries of the upper extremities are considered relatively rare injuries affecting mostly the young population.They often are complex injuries accompanied by other musculoskeletal trauma or trauma in other anatomic locations.Their management is challenging since they can lead to disabilities with major socioeconomic effects.AIM To analyze data about the mechanism of injury,the management algorithm and functional outcomes of vascular injuries of the upper extremity.METHODS One hundred and fifteen patients(96 males and 19 females)with arterial injuries of the upper extremity treated in a tertiary trauma center from January 2003 to December 2022 was conducted.Mean patients’age was 33.7 years and the mean follow up time was 7.4 years.Patients with Mangled Extremity Severity Score≥7 and Injury Severity Score≥20,previous upper limb surgery or major trauma and any neuromuscular or psychiatric disease were excluded,from the study.RESULTS A penetrating trauma was the most common cause of injury.The radial artery was the artery injured in most of the cases(37.4%)followed by the ulnar(29.5%),the brachial(12.1%)and the axillary(6%).A simultaneous injury of both of the forearm’s arteries was in 15.6%of the cases.In 93%of the cases there were other concomitant musculoskeletal injuries of the extremity.Tendon lacerations were the most common,followed by nerve injuries.The postoperative functional scores(full Disabilities of the Arm,Shoulder,and Hand and VAS)had very satisfactory values.CONCLUSION Although vascular injuries of the upper extremity are rare,they may occur in the context of major combined musculoskeletal trauma.Although a multidisciplinary approach is essential to optimize outcome,the ability of trained hand surgeons to repair all injuries in combined vascular and musculoskeletal upper extremity trauma,excluding isolated vascular injuries,ensures shorter operative times and better functional outcomes.

Zinc(Ⅱ)metal-organic framework eluting titanium implant as propulsive agent to boost the endothelium regeneration

The advent of antiproliferative drug-eluting vascular stents can dramatically reduce in-stent restenosis via inhibiting the hyperproliferation of vascular smooth muscle cells.However,the antiproliferative drugs also restrain the repair of the injured endothelial layer,which in turn leads to the very later in-stent restenosis.Evidence points that competent endothelium plays a critical role in guaranteeing the long-term patency via maintaining vascular homeostasis.Boosting the regeneration of endothelium on the implanted vascular stents could be rendered as a promising strategy to reduce stent implantation complications.In this regard,bioactive zinc(II)metal-organic framework modified with endothelial cell-targeting Arg-Glu-Asp-Val peptide was embedded in poly(lactide-co-caprolactone)to serve as a functional coating on the surface of titanium substrate,which can promote the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells.The in vitro cell experiments revealed that the zinc(II)metal-organic framework embedded in the polymer coating was able to modulate the behaviors of endothelial cells owing to the bioactive effects of zinc ion and peptide.Our results confirmed that zinc(II)metal-organic framework eluting coating represented a new possibility for promoting the repair of the damaged endothelium with potential clinical implications in vascular-related biomaterials and tissue engineering applications.

Update in combined musculoskeletal and vascular injuries of the extremities

Combined musculoskeletal and vascular injuries of the extremities are conditions in which a multidisciplinary approach is a sine qua non to ensure life initially and limb viability secondarily.Vascular injuries as part of musculoskeletal trauma are usually the result of the release of a high energy load in the wound site so that the prognosis is determined by the degree of soft-tissue damage,duration of limb ischemia,patient’s medical status and presence of associated injuries.The management of these injuries is challenging and requires a specific algorithm of action,because they are usually characterized by increased morbidity,amputation rate,infection,neurological and functional deficits,and they could be life threatening.Although vascular injuries are rare and occur either isolated or in the context of major combined musculoskeletal trauma,the high index of suspicion,imaging control,and timely referral of the patient to organized trauma centers ensure the best functional outcome of the extremity in such challenging cases.Even after a successful initial treatment of a combined trauma pattern,long-term follow-up is crucial to prevent and detect early possible complications.The purpose of this manuscript is to provide an update on diagnosis and treatment of combined musculoskeletal and vascular injuries of the extremities,from an orthopedic point of view.

Pulmonary endothelium-targeted nanoassembly of indomethacin and superoxide dismutase relieves lung inflammation

Lung inflammation is an essential inducer of various diseases and is closely related to pulmonary-endothelium dysfunction.Herein,we propose a pulmonary endothelium-targeted codelivery system of anti-inflammatory indomethacin(IND)and antioxidant superoxide dismutase(SOD)by assembling the biopharmaceutical SOD onto the“vector”of rod-like pure IND crystals,followed by coating with anti-ICAM-1 antibody(Ab)for targeting endothelial cells.The codelivery system has a 237 nm diameter in length and extremely high drug loading of 39%IND and 2.3%SOD.Pharmacokinetics and biodistribution studies demonstrate the extended blood circulation and the strong pulmonary accumulation of the system after intravenous injection in the lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced inflammatory murine model.Particularly,the system allows a robust capacity to target pulmonary endothelium mostly due to the rod-shape and Ab coating effect.In vitro,the preparation shows the synergistic antiinflammatory and antioxidant effects in LPS-activated endothelial cells.In vivo,the preparation exhibits superior pharmacodynamic efficacy revealed by significantly downregulating the inflammatory/oxidative stress markers,such as TNF-a,IL-6,COX-2,and reactive oxygen species(ROS),in the lungs.In conclusion,the codelivery system based on rod-like pure crystals could well target the pulmonary endothelium and effectively alleviate lung inflammation.The study offers a promising approach to combat pulmonary endothelium-associated diseases.

Liver transplantation in the treatment of severe iatrogenic liver injuries

The place of liver transplantation in the treatment of severe iatrogenic liver injuries has not yet been widely discussed in the literature. Bile duct injuries during cholecystectomy represent the leading cause of liver transplantation in this setting, while other indications after abdominal surgery are less common. Urgent liver transplantation for the treatment of severe iatrogenic liver injury may-represent a surgical challenge requiring technically difficult and time consuming procedures. A debate is ongoing on the need for centralization of complex surgery in tertiary referral centers. The early referral of patients with severe iatrogenic liver injuries to a tertiary center with experienced hepato-pancreatobiliary and transplant surgery has emerged as the best treatment of care. Despite widespread interest in the use of liver transplantation as a treatment option for severe iatrogenic injuries, reported experiences indicate few liver transplants are performed. This review analyzes the literature on liver transplantation after hepatic injury and discusses our own experience along with surgical advances and future prospects in this uncommon transplant setting.

Ferroptosis inhibition protects vascular endothelial cells and maintains integrity of the blood-spinal cord barrier after spinal cord injury

Maintaining the integrity of the blood-spinal cord barrier is critical for the recove ry of spinal cord injury.Ferro ptosis contributes to the pathogenesis of spinal cord injury.We hypothesized that ferroptosis is involved in disruption of the blood-s pinal cord barrier.In this study,we administe red the ferroptosis inhibitor liproxstatin-1 intraperitoneally after contusive spinal co rd injury in rats.Liproxstatin-1 improved locomotor recovery and somatosensory evoked potential electrophysiological performance after spinal cord inju ry.Liproxstatin-1 maintained blood-spinal cord barrier integrity by upregulation of the expression of tight junction protein.Liproxstatin-1 inhibited ferroptosis of endothelial cell after spinal cord injury,as shown by the immunofluorescence of an endothelial cell marker(rat endothelium cell antigen-1,RECA-1) and fe rroptosis markers Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member 4 and 15-lipoxygenase.Liproxstatin-1reduced brain endothelial cell ferroptosis in vitro by upregulating glutathione peroxidase 4 and downregulating Acyl-CoA synthetase long-chain family member4 and 15-lipoxygenase.Furthermore,inflammatory cell recruitment and astrogliosis were mitigated after liproxstatin-1 treatment.In summary,liproxstatin-1im proved spinal cord injury recovery by inhibiting ferroptosis in endothelial cells and maintaining blood-s pinal co rd barrier integrity.

Vascular injury during laparoscopic cholecystectomy:An oftenoverlooked complication

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is one of the most frequently performed procedures in gastrointestinal surgery worldwide.Bleeding complications due to vascular injuries represent an important cause of morbidity and mortality,especially when facing major bleeding during laparoscopy,where bleeding control can be technically challenging in inexperienced hands.Interestingly,the reported incidence rate of conversion to open surgery due to vascular lesions is approximately 0%-1.9%,with a mortality rate of approximately 0.02%.The primary aim of this article was to perform an up-to-date overview regarding the incidence and surgical management of vascular injuries during laparoscopic cholecystectomy according to the available scientific evidence.

Hydroxysafflor Yellow A Promotes Vascular Endothelial Cell Proliferation via VEGF/VEGF Receptor

Aim To study the proliferative effeet of hydroxysaftlor yellow A （HSYA） on cultured canine aortic endothelial cell （VEC） in normoxic （21% O2 ） or hypoxic （10% O2 ） culture and the underlying mechanism. Methods The endothelial cells were scratched from trypsined canine aorta endothelium. HSYA was added to the cells at final concentrations of 1 × 10^-3, 1 × 10^-4 and 1 × 10^-5 mol· L^-1, respectively. VEGF （2.6 × 10^-7 mol· L^-1 ）-treated cells were used as the positive control. The proliferative effect of HSYA on VEC was determined at 48, 72, 96, and 120 h in normoxic culture by MTI＂ assay. Similarly, the proliferation of VEC was determined at 12, 24, 48, and 72 h in hypoxic culture by MTF assay. The effects of HSYA on VEC proliferation and VEGF secretion were investigated by MTr and ELISA assays at the presence of the antibodies to VEGF and VEGF receptors. Results Pretreatment with HSYA at concentrations of 1 × 10^-3 and 1 × 10^-4 mol· L^-1 enhanced VEC proliferation in normoxic culture. The most significant enhancing effect of HSYA on VEC proliferation was achieved at 24, 48, and 72 h in hypoxic culture in concentration-dependent and time-dependent manner. HSYA at 1 × 10^-3 mol·L^-1 showed a potency similar to VEGF at 2.6 × 10^-7 mol·L^-1 . Pretreatment with the antibodies of Flt-1, KDR or VEGF blocked the proliferative effect of HSYA with similar potencies. Antibodies of Fit-1 or VEGF antagonized the promoting effect of HSYA on VEGF secretion. Conclusion HSYA promotes VEC proliferation either in normoxic or hypoxic culture, especially in the latter condition. This effect of HSYA is at least partly mediated by VEGF and VEGF receptor.
