Cardiac Imaging in Carcinoid Heart Disease

open access: yes, 2021
Carcinoid disease is caused by neuroendocrine tumors, most often located in the gut, and leads in approximately 20% of cases to specific, severe heart disease, most prominently affecting right-sided valves.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Left Atrial 4D Flow Characteristics in Patients with Atrial Fibrillation: Comparison with Healthy Controls and Associations with Left Atrial Remodelling and Contractile Health

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Left atrial (LA) four-dimensional (4D) flow quantification and strain may help predict stroke and thrombus formation in patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). We aimed to characterize flow changes in AF patients undergoing pulmonary vein isolation (PVI)

Neutralization of the PTX3/CD44 axis suppresses TGF‐β1 signaling in kidney fibrosis

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This study investigates how the PTX3/CD44 axis promotes kidney fibrosis by activating TGF‐β1 signaling. We demonstrate that the neutralizing antibody WHC‐001 effectively inhibits this pathway, suppressing myofibroblast activation and partial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT).

Mitochondrial translation and coordinated cytosolic translation in metabolic homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Mitochondrial function depends on coordinated protein production from the nuclear and mitochondrial genomes. This review highlights how cytosolic and mitochondrial translation, mRNA localization, protein import, and respiratory complex assembly are integrated to maintain mitochondrial proteostasis and function.

Imaging Techniques for the Assessment of Coronary Arteries in Diabetic Patients Undergoing PCI with Bioresorbable Vascular Scaffolds

open access: yesJournal of Interdisciplinary Medicine, 2017
Patients who suffer from diabetes mellitus and present coronary artery disease are at a higher risk of cardiovascular events. The coronary arteries of diabetic patients present a diffuse process of atherosclerosis with frequent distal involvement, being ...
