Open AccessGlobal fungal-host interactome map** identifies host targets of candidalysin
Candidalysin, a cytolytic peptide toxin secreted by the human fungal pathogen Candida albicans, is critical for fungal pathogenesis. Yet, its intracellular targets have not been extensively mapped. Here, we perfo...

Vasa Vasorum Hypoperfusion Is Responsible for Medial Hypoxia and Anatomic Remodeling in the Newborn Lamb Ductus Arteriosus
Postnatal constriction of the full-term ductus arteriosus produces hypoxia of the muscle media. This is associated with anatomic remodeling (including smooth muscle death) that prevents subsequent reopening. W...

Combined Prostaglandin and Nitric Oxide Inhibition Produces Anatomic Remodeling and Closure of the Ductus Arteriosus in the Premature Newborn Baboon
After birth, the full-term ductus arteriosus actively constricts and undergoes extensive histologic changes that prevent subsequent reopening. These changes are thought to occur only if a region of intense hyp...

Permanent Anatomic Closure of the Ductus Arteriosus in Newborn Baboons: The Roles of Postnatal Constriction, Hypoxia, and Gestation
Permanent closure of the ductus arteriosus require loss of cells from the muscle media and development of neointimal mounds, composed in part of proliferating endothelial cells. We hypothesized that postnatal ...

Regulation of Ductus Arteriosus Patency by Nitric Oxide in Fetal Lambs: The Role of Gestation, Oxygen Tension, and Vasa Vasorum
We hypothesized that nitric oxide (NO) production by the fetal ductus arteriosus is limited because of low fetal PO2, but that at neonatal PO2, NO might be an important regulator of ductus arteriosus tone. We exp...

Changes in Endothelial Cell and Smooth Muscle Cell Integrin Expression during Closure of the Ductus Arteriosus: An Immunohistochemical Comparison of the Fetal, Preterm Newborn, and Full-Term Newborn Rhesus Monkey Ductus
Anatomical closure of the ductus arteriosus requires normally quiescent luminal endothelial cells and medial smooth muscle cells to migrate into the subendothelial space forming intimal mounds that eventually ...
