    Methods: After stimulation of precision cut lung slices (PCLS) from mice (wildtype and ASM-knockout), rats, guinea pigs and human lungs with mediators of bronchoconstriction (endogenous and exogenous acetylcholine, methacholine, serotonin, endothelin, histamine, thromboxane-receptor agonist U46619 and leukotriene LTD4, airway area was monitored in the absence of or with rising concentrations of amitriptyline. Airway dilatation was also investigated in rat PCLS by prior contraction induced by methacholine. As bronchodilators for maximal relaxation, we used IBMX (PDE inhibitor) and salbutamol (ß
    Results: Our results show amitriptyline to be a potential inhibitor of bronchoconstriction, induced by exogenous or endogenous (EFS) acetylcholine, serotonin and histamine, in PCLS from various species. The effects of endothelin, thromboxane and leukotrienes could not be blocked. In acute bronchoconstriction, amitriptyline seems to act ASM-independent, because ASM-deficiency (Smdp1
    Conclusion: Amitriptyline is a drug of high potential, which inhibits acute bronchoconstriction and induces bronchodilatation in pre-contracted airways. It could be one of the first therapeutic agents in asthmatic disease to have powerful effects on the T

    Abstract Background: PDGFR-inhibition by the tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) nintedanib attenuates the progress of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). However, the effects of PDGF-BB on the airway tone are almost unknown. We studied this issue and the mechanisms beyond, using isolated perfused lungs (IPL) of guinea pigs (GPs) and precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) of GPs and humans.
    Methods: IPL: PDGF-BB was perfused after or without pre-treatment with the TKI imatinib (perfused/nebulised) and its effects on the tidal volume (TV), the dynamic compliance (Cdyn) and the resistance were studied.
    Pcls (gp): The bronchoconstrictive effects of PDGF-BB and the mechanisms beyond were evaluated. PCLS (human): The bronchoconstrictive effects of PDGF-BB and the bronchorelaxant effects of imatinib were studied. All changes of the airway tone were measured by videomicroscopy and indicated as changes of the initial airway area.
    Results: PCLS (GP/human): PDGF-BB lead to a contraction of airways. IPL: PDGF-BB decreased TV and Cdyn, whereas the resistance did not increase significantly. In both models, inhibition of PDGFR-(β) (imatinib/SU6668) prevented the bronchoconstrictive effect of PDGF-BB. The mechanisms beyond PDGF-BB-induced bronchoconstriction include activation of MAP2K and TP-receptors, actin polymerisation and Ca
    Conclusions: PDGFR regulates the airway tone. In PCLS from GPs, this regulatory mechanism depends on the β-subunit. Hence, PDGFR-inhibition may not only represent a target to improve chronic airway disease such as IPF, but may also provide acute bronchodilation in asthma. Since asthma therapy uses topical application. This is even more relevant, as nebulisation of imatinib also appears to be effective.

    Abstract Background and importance:  Traumatic avulsion of the ophthalmic artery is a rare cause of subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH). In this case, a relative minor fall with isolated ocular trauma caused bulbar dislocation and rupture of the ophthalmic artery in its intracranial segment resulting in subarachnoid bleeding.
    Clinical presentation:  In a female patient in her 70s, a direct penetrating trauma to the orbit by a door handle resulted in basal SAH with blood dispersion into both Sylvian fissures. Cerebral angiography revealed a blunt-ending stump at the origin of the ophthalmic artery. To provide protection against further bleeding, a flow diverter stent was placed in the internal carotid artery to cover the origin of the ophthalmic artery. After a longer intensive care stay complicated by pneumonia and respiratory insufficiency, the patient made a full recovery. Of all four reported cases (including ours), delayed cerebral ischemia was seen in one patient and hydrocephalus in two patients. These potential complications necessitate close observation and fitting treatment similar to aneurysmal SAH.
    Conclusion:  Due to similar physiologic aspects, this type of bleed mimics many aspects of aneurysmal SAH. In this case, we observed no hydrocephalus or the development of delayed cerebral ischemia. This represents, however, the first reported case treated by placement of a flow diverter stent to prevent rebleeding and pseudoaneurysm formation.

    Abstract Background: Platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-BB and its receptor PDGFR are highly expressed in pulmonary hypertension (PH) and mediate proliferation. Recently, we showed that PDGF-BB contracts pulmonary veins (PVs) and that this contraction is prevented by inhibition of PDGFR-β (imatinib/SU6668). Here, we studied PDGF-BB-induced contraction and downstream-signalling in isolated perfused lungs (IPL) and precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) of guinea pigs (GPs).
    Methods: In IPLs, PDGF-BB was perfused after or without pre-treatment with imatinib (perfused/nebulised), the effects on the pulmonary arterial pressure (P
    Results: In IPLs, PDGF-BB increased P
    Conclusions: PDGF-BB/PDGFR regulates the pulmonary vascular tone by the generation of prostaglandins, the increase of calcium, the activation of MAPK- or PI3K/AKT/mTOR signalling and actin remodelling. More insights in PDGF-BB downstream-signalling may contribute to develop new therapeutics for PH.

    Abstract Background: Recently, the IMPRES study revealed that systemic imatinib improves exercise capacity in patients with advanced pulmonary arterial hypertension. Imatinib blocks the tyrosine kinase activity of the platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)-receptor (PDGFR), acts antiproliferative and relaxes pulmonary arteries. However so far, the relaxant effects of imatinib on pulmonary veins (PVs) and on the postcapillary resistance are unknown, although pulmonary hypertension (PH) due to left heart disease (LHD) is most common and primarily affects PVs. Next, it is unknown whether activation of PDGFR alters the pulmonary venous tone. Due to the reported adverse effects of systemic imatinib, we evaluated the effects of nebulized imatinib on the postcapillary resistance.
    Methods: Precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) were prepared from guinea pigs. PVs were pre-constricted with Endothelin-1 (ET-1) and the imatinib-induced relaxation was studied by videomicroscopy; PDGF-BB-related vascular properties were evaluated as well. The effects of perfused/nebulized imatinib on the postcapillary resistance were studied in cavine isolated perfused lungs (IPL). Intracellular cAMP/cGMP was measured by ELISA in PVs.
    Results: In PCLS, imatinib (100 μM) relaxed pre-constricted PVs (126%). In PVs, imatinib increased cAMP, but not cGMP and inhibition of adenyl cyclase or protein kinase A reduced the imatinib-induced relaxation. Further, inhibition of K
    Conclusions: Imatinib-induced relaxation depends on cAMP and on the activation of K

    Abstract Objectives: The optimal treatment duration for vancomycin-resistant enterococcal (VRE) bacteraemia is still a matter of debate. The aim of the present study was to compare short-course (≤9 days) and long-course (≥10 days) antibiotic treatments in hospitalized adult patients with uncomplicated VRE bacteraemia.
    Methods: This retrospective study was conducted in four university hospitals in Germany. Adult patients with a positive blood culture for a VRE were screened from 1 January 2016 to 31 December 2018. Only patients who received a VRE-active antibiotic for at least 48 hours were included. The exclusion criteria were a survival of <10 days and a deep-seated source of infection requiring prolonged treatment. To compare the outcome of short-course therapy with that of long-course therapy, 30-day and 90-day overall mortality, relapse within 90 days, duration of hospitalization, and potential antibiotic-related adverse events were analysed by inverse probability of treatment weighting using the propensity score and by additional covariate adjustment.
    Results: Of the 363 patients screened, 219 (60.3%) patients were included in the final analysis. Among them, 48 (21.9%) patients had underlying haematological diseases. Seventy-eight (35.6%) patients received short-course treatment (median, 7 days; interquartile range, 5-8 days) and 141 (64.4%) patients received long-course treatment (median, 15 days; interquartile range, 12-23.5 days). Thirty-day mortality was similar in both groups (19.2% vs. 22.0%; adjusted OR, 1.15; p 0.773). Duration of hospitalization (in total and after onset of bacteraemia) was significantly shorter (p < 0.05) in the short-course treatment group, whereas other secondary outcome parameters did not differ between both groups.
    Discussion: Our study suggests that short-course treatment might not be associated with a worse outcome in patients with uncomplicated VRE bacteraemia.

    Abstract Background: Tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) inhibit the platelet derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) and gain increasing significance in the therapy of proliferative diseases, e.g. pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Moreover, TKIs relax pulmonary vessels of rats and guinea pigs. So far, it is unknown, whether TKIs exert relaxation in human and murine pulmonary vessels. Thus, we studied the effects of TKIs and the PDGFR-agonist PDGF-BB in precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) from both species.
    Methods: The vascular effects of imatinib (mice/human) or nilotinib (human) were studied in Endothelin-1 (ET-1) pre-constricted pulmonary arteries (PAs) or veins (PVs) by videomicroscopy. Baseline initial vessel area (IVA) was defined as 100%. With regard to TKI-induced relaxation, K
    Results: Murine PCLS: Imatinib (10 μM) relaxed ET-1-pre-constricted PAs to 167% of IVA. Vice versa, 100 nM PDGF-BB contracted PAs to 60% of IVA and pre-treatment with imatinib or amlodipine prevented PDGF-BB-induced contraction. Murine PVs reacted only slightly to imatinib or PDGF-BB. Human PCLS: 100 μM imatinib or nilotinib relaxed ET-1-pre-constricted PAs to 166% or 145% of IVA, respectively, due to the activation of K
    Conclusions: TKIs relax pre-constricted PAs/PVs from both, mice and humans. In human PAs, the activation of K
