This study correlates CT-derived elastic modulus of the ascending aorta with histopathological features, showing significant relationships with elastin, collagen, and VSMC composition.

The paper identifies genetic variants associated with synaptic processes that may have contributed to cognitive growth in early humans by comparing gene expression across archaic and modern humans.

This study shows that Sox17 expression in cardiac progenitor cells biases their fate toward the endocardium and regulates myocardium development through NOTCH signaling in mice.

This study shows that administering HMGB1 fragment improves cardiac function and reduces fibrosis in a hamster model of dilated cardiomyopathy by enhancing stem cell homing.
