ABSTRACT Background Mitochondria have emerged as a significant and promising area of research in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). However, there is a notable scarcity of bibliometric studies in this field. Our aim is to conduct a bibliometric analysis of mitochondrial research in HCM, delineating research hotspots and trends to aid in understanding ...

Cardiolipin in Barth Syndrome [PDF]
Barth Syndrome (BTHS) is a rare genetic disorder caused by mutations in the gene that encodes tafazzin, a protein whose sole function is to remodel the mitochondrial phospholipid cardiolipin (CL). Despite comprising a small proportion of the body’s total

Anomalous peroxidase activity of cytochrome c is the primary pathogenic target in Barth syndrome [PDF]
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a life-threatening genetic disorder with unknown pathogenicity caused by mutations in TAFAZZIN (TAZ) that affect remodeling of mitochondrial cardiolipin (CL).

Cardiomyopathy: pathogenesis and therapeutic interventions
Cardiomyopathy is a group of diseases characterized by structural and functional damage to the myocardium. Many specific gene mutations, environmental factors, and metabolic disorders may cause cardiomyopathy. Traditional therapeutic includes drug and surgery. With the growing comprehension of the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiomyopathy.

Decreasing cytosolic translation is beneficial to yeast and human Tafazzin-deficient cells
Cardiolipin (CL) optimizes diverse mitochondrial processes, including oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To function properly, CL needs to be unsaturated, which requires the acyltransferase Tafazzin (TAZ).

Advances in cardiac tissue engineering and heart‐on‐a‐chip
Abstract Recent advances in both cardiac tissue engineering and hearts‐on‐a‐chip are grounded in new biomaterial development as well as the employment of innovative fabrication techniques that enable precise control of the mechanical, electrical, and structural properties of the cardiac tissues being modelled.

Barth syndrome mutations that cause tafazzin complex lability
Deficits in mitochondrial function result in many human diseases. The X-linked disease Barth syndrome (BTHS) is caused by mutations in the tafazzin gene TAZ1.
