premii Ad Astra

Asociația Ad Astra a anunțat câștigătorii Premiilor Ad Astra 2022: http://premii.ad-astra.ro/. Proiectul și-a propus identificarea și popularizarea modelelor de succes, a rezultatelor excepționale ale cercetătorilor români din țară și din afara ei.

Asociatia Ad Astra a cercetatorilor romani lanseaza BAZA DE DATE A CERCETATORILOR ROMANI DIN DIASPORA. Scopul acestei baze de date este aceea de a stimula colaborarea dintre cercetatorii romani de peste hotare dar si cu cercetatorii din Romania. Cercetatorii care doresc sa fie nominalizati in aceasta baza de date sunt rugati sa trimita un email la cristian.presura@gmail.com

Ongoing data on vascular endothelial cell dysfunction: an update
Circulating microparticles and endothelial progenitor cells in atherosclerosis; pharmacological effects of irbesartan

Summary. Aims: This study aimed to (i) employ our newly designed model, the hypertensive-hypercholesterolemic hamster(HH), in order to find out whether a correlation exists between circulating microparticles (MPs), endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs) and their contribution to vascular dysfunction and (ii) to assess the effect of irbesartan treatment on HH animals (HHI). Methods and Results: The results showed that compared with the control (C) group,

Platelet dysfunction in vascular pathologies and how can it be treated

Cardiovascular diseases are one of the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in industrialized countries, and although many processes play a role in the development of vascular disease, thrombosis is the primary event that precipitates stroke and acute coronary syndromes. The blood platelets are of significant importance in medicine. These cells are involved in many physiological processes, particularly haemostasis through their ability to aggregate

The promise of EPC-based therapies on vascular dysfunction in diabetes.

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common metabolic diseases in the world and the vascular dysfunction represents a challenging clinical problem. In diabetes, endothelial cells (ECs), lining the inner wall of blood vessels, do not function properly and contribute to impaired vascular function. Circulating endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), the precursor of mature EC, actively participate in endothelial repair, by moving to the vascular injury

Intraplatelet oxidative/nitrative stress: inductors, consequences, and control

This article provides an overview of the current knowledge on intraplatelet oxidative/nitrative stress, an abnormality associated with platelet activation and hyper-reactivity. The first issue discussed is related to induction of platelet endogenous stress by the molecules present within the circulating (extracellular) milieu that bathes these cells. The second issue concerns the intraplatelet oxidative/nitrative stress associated with specific pathologies

Electrochemically produced hydrogen bubble probes for gas evolution kinetics and force spectroscopy

The development and characterisation of electrochemically generated hydrogen bubbles for gas evolution kinetics and force spectroscopy are described. Bubbles have been grown at the platinised tip of a commercially available atomic force microscopy (AFM) needle probe (exposed electrode radius rb300 nm) and monitored by CCD camera. Results showconsistent bubble growth in galvanostatic conditions. The utility of the bubble probes in AFM force spectroscopy
