Long-Term Follow-Up of Cardioneuroablation to Treat Second-Degree Block After Slow Pathway Ablation

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
We present the long-term follow-up of a 31-year-old woman who underwent cardioneuroablation (for atrioventricular (AV) block. Slow pathway ablation was performed in September 2017 with normal follow-up until April 2018, when the patient started noticing ...

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

C‐mannosylation promotes ADAMTS1 activation and secretion in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
C‐mannosylation is a unique form of protein glycosylation. In this study, we demonstrated that ADAMTS1 is C‐mannosylated at Trp562 and Trp565 in human testicular germ cell tumor NEC8 cells. We found that C‐mannosylation of ADAMTS1 is essential for its secretion, processing, enzymatic activity, and ability to promote vasculogenic mimicry. These findings

Trans‐aortic pulmonary vein isolation using magnetic navigation system for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation in a patient with dextrocardia, situs inversus, and inferior vena cava continuity with azygos vein

Journal of Arrhythmia, 2018
A 51‐year‐old male with dextrocardia and situs inversus underwent catheter ablation for paroxysmal atrial fibrillation. Because the procedure through the trans‐septal approach was impossible due to the inferior vena cava continuity with azygos vein, we ...

Ergothioneine supplementation improves pup phenotype and survival in a murine model of spinal muscular atrophy

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a genetic disease affecting motor neurons. Individuals with SMA experience mitochondrial dysfunction and oxidative stress. The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of an antioxidant and neuroprotective substance, ergothioneine (ERGO), on an SMNΔ7 mouse model of SMA.

Ablation of atrial fibrillation

Current Cardiology Reports, 2006
Fueled by dissatisfaction with pharmacologic strategies to treat atrial fibrillation (AF), the results of basic and clinical investigation into the understanding of AF initiation and maintenance mechanisms, and the explosive development in catheter-based technologies, AF ablation has matured from a purely investigational technique to a preferred, safe,

Microbial exopolysaccharide production by polyextremophiles in the adaptation to multiple extremes

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Polyextremophiles are microorganisms that endure multiple extreme conditions by various adaptation strategies that also include the production of exopolysaccharides (EPSs). This review provides an integrated perspective on EPS biosynthesis, function, and regulation in these organisms, emphasizing their critical role in survival and highlighting their ...

Is achievement of pulmonary vein isolation the only effect of cryoballoon ablation in long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation?

Türk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2016
A case of long-standing persistent atrial fibrillation (LPAF) that underwent hybrid treatment combining transvenous cryothermal and radiofrequency (RF) energy is described in the present report.

Single cis‐elements in brassinosteroid‐induced upregulated genes are insufficient to recruit both redox states of the BIL1/BZR1 DNA‐binding domain

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phytohormone brassinosteroid‐induced gene regulation by the transcription factor BIL1/BZR1 involves redox‐dependent DNA‐binding alternation and interaction with the transcription factor PIF4. The reduced BIL1/BZR1 dimer binds preferred cis‐elements, while oxidation alters its oligomerization state and disrupts DNA‐binding ability.

Temporal Changes in Epicardial Adipose Tissue and Left Atrial Substrate After Atrial Fibrillation Ablation: Implications for Procedural Success

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background Ganglionated plexi (GPs) within epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) are involved in the initiation and maintenance of atrial fibrillation (AF), yet the effects of catheter ablation on EAT volume and GP activity remain unclear.
