Dieulafoy disease of the colon.

30 Oct 2009 Dieulafoy disease is a rare cause of upper gastrointestinal hemorrhage (usually gastric) and an even rarer cause of colonic bleeding. There is a sudden onset of catastrophic bleeding in a previously healthy individual, which cannot be managed ... Read more...

Arterial-venous segregation by selective cell sprouting: an alternative mode of blood vessel formation.

7 Oct 2009 Blood vessels form de novo (vasculogenesis) or upon sprouting of capillaries from preexisting vessels (angiogenesis). With high-resolution imaging of zebrafish vascular development, we uncovered a third mode of blood vessel formation whereby the ... Read more...

Loss of matrix metalloproteinase 2 in platelets reduces arterial thrombosis in vivo.

3 Oct 2009 Platelet activation at a site of vascular injury is essential for the arrest of bleeding; however, excessive platelet activation at a site of arterial damage can result in the unwarranted formation of arterial thrombi, precipitating acute myocardial ... Read more...
