Abstract In postmenopausal osteoporotic women in ACTIVE, abaloparatide reduced fracture risk and increased areal bone mineral density (BMD) more than teriparatide at the hip and wrist. DXA-based 3D modeling showed significantly greater increases in hip cortical volumetric BMD with abaloparatide versus teriparatide. This may explain differences reported in aBMD by DXA. Introduction: In ...

The ventricular myocardium of the human heart is composed of an anisotropic tissue structure that allows for force generation and contraction to pump blood throughout the body. It has long been established that the collagen-rich, fibrous, extracellular matrix environment guides the formation of this laminar tissue architecture. The structural and mechanical properties of the cardiac ...

Abstract Fibronectin in the vascular wall promotes inflammatory activation of the endothelium during vascular remodeling and atherosclerosis. These effects are mediated in part by fibronectin binding to integrin α5, which recruits and activates phosphodiesterase 4D5 (PDE4D5) by inducing its dephosphorylation on an inhibitory site, S651. Active PDE then hydrolyzes antiinflammatory cAMP to ...
