This study shows that inhibiting Na/K-ATPase signaling in adipocytes reduces atherosclerosis in Apoe-/- mice by decreasing inflammation and oxidative stress.

This study shows that Pcpe2 in adipose tissue contributes to inflammation and fibrosis in obesity and that its absence reduces these effects and enhances adipocyte differentiation.

This paper identifies a shear-dependent interaction between Protein S and von Willebrand Factor that reduces free PS anticoagulant activity and contributes to thrombotic risk in viral infections.

This study identifies the CD36-PKM2-mtROS pathway as a mechanism by which oxidized LDL disrupts efferocytosis, contributing to atherosclerosis progression.

This paper investigates the opposing yet coordinated roles of Nrf1 and Nrf2 in response to tunicamycin-induced ER stress, showing how they regulate gene expression and maintain cellular homeostasis.
