Perivascular adipose tissue contributes to the modulation of vascular tone in vivo (2019)
Journal Article
Saxton, S., Withers, S., Nyvad, J., Mazur, A., Matchkov, V., Heagerty, A., & Aalkjær, C. (2019). Perivascular adipose tissue contributes to the modulation of vascular tone in vivo. Journal of Vascular Research, 56(6), 320-332. https://doi.org/10.1159/000502689

Perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) reduces vascular tone in isolated arteries in vitro, however there are no studies of PVAT effects on vascular tone in vivo. In vitro adipocyte β3-adrenoceptors play a role in PVAT function via secretion of the vasod... Read More about Perivascular adipose tissue contributes to the modulation of vascular tone in vivo.

Mobile assemblies of four-spherical-4R-integrated linkages and the associated four-crease-integrated rigid origami patterns (2019)
