[Acta Pharmacologica Sinica] The authors summarize the current clinical trials with proven curative effect of colchicine in treating cardiovascular diseases.

[European Journal of Pharmacology] Evaluation of 2-benzyllawsone against vascular hyporeactivity, hypotension, and sepsis-related inflammation and infection was carried out in the cecal ligation and puncture model in Swiss albino mice and aortic smooth muscle cells in vitro.

[Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity] Researchers discovered the possible role and mechanism of long coding RNA XIST in oxidized low-density lipoprotein- stimulated vascular smooth muscle cells, which could further help evalute its possible a role in the progression of atherosclerosis.

[Pharmacological Research] Scientists summarize recent advances in tissue transglutaminase and discuss its role and mechanisms in the progression of various cardiovascular disease and its potential as a diagnostic and therapeutic target.

[Scientific Reports] The authors investigated the role of endothelial-derived extracellular microRNA-92a in promoting arterial stiffness by regulating endothelial cell–vascular smooth muscle cell communication.
