Upregulation of Circular RNA CircNFIB Attenuates Cardiac Fibrosis by Sponging miR-433
Cardiac fibrosis is the pathological consequence of fibroblast proliferation and fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition. As a new class of endogenous non-coding RNAs, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been identified in many cardiovascular diseases including

Noninvasive assessment of an engineered bioactive graft in myocardial infarction: impact on cardiac function and scar healing [PDF]
Cardiac tissue engineering, which combines cells and biomaterials, is promising for limiting the sequelae of myocardial infarction (MI). We assessed myocardial function and scar evolution after implanting an engineered bioactive impedance graft (EBIG) in

Mechanisms of action of sacubitril/valsartan on cardiac remodeling: a systems biology approach
Cardiology: Heart Failure Medication Reduces Heart Size The new wonder drug in heart failure management, Sacubitril/Valsartan, rejuvenates the heart by preventing its dilation. Using data from myocardial infarction and heart failure samples, we generated

Evidence for mechanisms underlying the functional benefits of a myocardial matrix hydrogel for post-MI treatment [PDF]
Background There is increasing need for better therapies to prevent the development of heart failure after myocardial infarction (MI). An injectable hydrogel derived from decellularized porcine ventricular myocardium has been shown to halt the post ...

Circular RNAs: Promising Biomarkers for Human Diseases
Circular RNA (circRNA) is a group of endogenous noncoding RNA characterized by a covalently closed cyclic structure lacking poly-adenylated tails. Recent studies have suggested that circRNAs play a crucial role in regulating gene expression by acting as ...

Regulating Retinoic Acid Availability during Development and Regeneration: The Role of the CYP26 Enzymes. [PDF]
This review focuses on the role of the Cytochrome p450 subfamily 26 (CYP26) retinoic acid (RA) degrading enzymes during development and regeneration. Cyp26 enzymes, along with retinoic acid synthesising enzymes, are absolutely required for RA homeostasis
