Anomalous Velocity Distributions in Active Brownian Suspensions

Large-scale simulations and analytical theory have been combined to obtain the nonequilibrium velocity distribution, f(v), of randomly accelerated particles in suspension. The simulations are based on an event-driven algorithm, generalized to include friction. They reveal strongly anomalous but largely universal distributions, which are independent of volume fraction and collision processes, which suggests a one-particle model should capture all the essential features. We have formulated this one-particle model and solved it analytically in the limit of strong damping, where we find that f (v) decays as 1/v for multiple decades, eventually crossing over to a Gaussian decay for the largest velocities. Many particle simulations and numerical solution of the one-particle model agree for all values of the damping.

Potential roles of osteopontin and αVβ3 integrin in the development of coronary artery restenosis after angioplasty

Angioplasty procedures are increasingly used to reestablish blood flow in blocked atherosclerotic coronary arteries. A serious complication of these procedures is reocclusion (restenosis), which occurs in 30–50% of patients. Migration of coronary artery smooth muscle cells (CASMCs) to the site of injury caused by angioplasty and subsequent proliferation are suggested mechanisms of reocclusion. Using both cultured human CASMCs and coronary atherectomy tissues, we studied the roles of osteopontin (OPN) and one of its receptors, αvβ3 integrin, in the pathogenesis of coronary restenosis. We also measured the plasma levels of OPN before and after angioplasty and determined the effect of exogenous OPN on CASMC migration, extracellular matrix invasion, and proliferation. We found that cultured CASMCs during log phase of growth and smooth muscle cell layer of the coronary atherosclerotic tissues of patients express both OPN mRNA and protein at a significantly elevated level compared with controls. Interestingly, whereas the baseline plasma OPN levels in control samples were virtually undetectable, those in patient plasma were remarkably high. We also found that interaction of OPN with αvβ3 integrin, expressed on CASMCs, causes migration, extracellular matrix invasion, and proliferation. These effects were abolished when OPN or αvβ3 integrin gene expression in CASMCs was inhibited by specific antisense S-oligonucleotide treatment or OPN-αvβ3 interaction was blocked by treatment of CASMCs with antibodies against OPN or αvβ3 integrin. Our results demonstrate that OPN and αvβ3 integrin play critical roles in regulating cellular functions deemed essential for restenosis. In addition, these results raise the possibility that transient inhibition of OPN gene expression or blocking of OPN-αvβ3 interaction may provide a therapeutic approach to preventing restenosis.
