Misra S, Fu A, Misra K, Shergill U, Leof E, Mukhopadhyay D
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2010 May;
21(6):896-902.
PMID: 20434368
Purpose: Hemodialysis grafts fail because of venous neointimal hyperplasia formation caused by adventitial fibroblasts that have become myofibroblasts (ie, alpha-smooth muscle actin [SMA]-positive cells) and migrate to the neointima. There...

J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2010 Feb;
21(1):108-15.
PMID: 20123196
Purpose: To evaluate the wall shear stress, protein expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9 and tissue inhibitor of matrix metalloproteinase (TIMP)-1 and TIMP-2, and vessel area over time in...

Misra S, Fu A, Misra K, Glockner J, Mukhopadhyay D
Angiology
. 2009 Jul;
60(4):441-7.
PMID: 19625275
Purpose: The purpose of the present article was to determine the changes in luminal vessel area, blood flow, and wall shear stress in both the inflow artery and the venous...

J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2009 Jun;
20(7):946-50.
PMID: 19555889
Purpose: The first aim of the present study was to create a mouse carotid artery-to-jugular vein arteriovenous (AV) fistula model. This model was used to test the hypothesis that there...

Misra S, Fu A, Puggioni A, Glockner J, McKusick M, Bjarnason H, et al.
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2008 Nov;
20(2):241-51.
PMID: 19028119
Purpose: To use proteomic analysis to identify up- and downregulated proteins in early venous stenosis formation in a porcine model of hemodialysis graft failure. Materials And Methods: Pigs had chronic...

Nephrol Dial Transplant
. 2008 Sep;
24(1):85-96.
PMID: 18786975
Unlabelled: Purpose. We hypothesized that adventitial transplantation of blood outgrowth endothelial cells (BOEC) to the vein-to-graft anastomosis of polytetrafluoroethylene grafts will reduce neointimal hyperplasia by reducing hypoxia inducible factor-1alpha (HIF-1alpha),...

Misra S, Fu A, Anderson J, Glockner J, McKusick M, Bjarnason H, et al.
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2008 Aug;
19(10):1477-82.
PMID: 18693047
Purpose: Because fetuin-A is a cytokine with multifunctional effects on vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts, the authors examined the course of its expression in early venous stenosis formation in...

Misra S, Fu A, Anderson J, Sethi S, Glockner J, McKusick M, et al.
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2008 Apr;
19(4):587-94.
PMID: 18375305
Purpose: To determine whether a femoral arteriovenous (AV) fistula model in a rat was feasible and whether there is increased expression of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and -9 and the tissue...

Misra S, Fu A, Puggioni A, Glockner J, Rajan D, McKusick M, et al.
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2008 Mar;
19(2 Pt 1):260-5.
PMID: 18341959
Purpose: To create a more clinically relevant model of hemodialysis graft failure in pigs by creating chronic renal insufficiency before polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) hemodialysis graft placement and to determine the expression...

Misra S, Fu A, Rajan D, Juncos L, McKusick M, Bjarnason H, et al.
J Vasc Interv Radiol
. 2008 Mar;
19(2 Pt 1):252-9.
PMID: 18341958
Purpose: It is well recognized that arteriovenous fistulas (AVFs) used for hemodialysis access have better primary patency rates with less restenosis than polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) grafts; however, the mechanism responsible for...
