Abstract: We previously reported pro‐survival effects of Wnt3a and Wnt5a proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Wnt5a achieved this through induction of Wnt1‐inducible signalling pathway protein‐1 (WISP‐1) consequent to β‐catenin/CREB‐dependent, TCF‐independent, signalling. However, we found… read more here.

Abstract: Central venous catheters (CVCs) are implanted in the majority of dialysis patients despite increased patient risk due to thrombotic occlusion and biofilm formation. Current solutions remain ineffective at preventing these complications and treatment options are… read more here.
