Caesalpinia sappan L. ethyl acetate extract regulated angiogenesis in atherosclerosis by modulating the miR-126/VEGF signalling pathway by Yue He, Chao Huang, Jingjing Chen, Weizeng Shen

“…Conclusion: This study emphasises CSEAE as a natural medicinal extract for the treatment of AS that can improve the migratory viability and reduce the apoptosis of HUVECs to maintain the health of the arterial endothelial microenvironment, while CSEAE also inhibits angiogenesis and delays plaque formation in ApoE−/− mice, suggesting that the therapeutic effect of CSEAE for AS may be related to its inhibition of neovascularisation and that its molecular mechanism may be related to the miR-126/VEGF signalling pathway.…”

The Chinese State, Incomplete Proletarianization and Structures of Inequality in Two Epochs by Wu Jieh-min, Mark Selden

“…The Chinese household registration system (hukou) has played a pivotal role in the “regulation” of the formation of the working class under conditions of free and unfree markets, in ways that invite comparison with the Act of Settlement in England prior to the era of the Speenhamland system, which hindered the movement of rural labor.5 The hukou regime has imposed conditions of severe inequality on migrants and their families, initially in the years 1960 to the late 1970s when rural to urban migration and market activity were virtually foreclosed, but also in the subsequent era when the state encouraged migration and market activity, while maintaining differential access to education, health care, retirement pensions etc., distinguishing those “sojourning” in the cities from those with full urban citizen rights on the basis of hukou.6Less studied, but equally important, in our view, is the interrelationship between inequality, on the one hand, and savings and underconsumption, on the other. …”
