Cardiac regeneration: epicardial mediated repair [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 2015
The hearts of lower vertebrates such as fish and salamanders display scarless regeneration following injury, although this feature is lost in adult mammals. The remarkable capacity of the neonatal mammalian heart to regenerate suggests that the underlying machinery required for the regenerative process is evolutionarily retained.

Smart, Bio‐Inspired Polymers and Bio‐Based Molecules Modified by Zwitterionic Motifs to Design Next‐Generation Materials for Medical Applications

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Bio‐based and (semi‐)synthetic zwitterion‐modified novel materials and fully synthetic next‐generation alternatives show the importance of material design for different biomedical applications. The zwitterionic character affects the physiochemical behavior of the material and deepens the understanding of chemical interaction mechanisms within the ...

RETRACTED ARTICLE: Kynurenine promotes neonatal heart regeneration by stimulating cardiomyocyte proliferation and cardiac angiogenesis

Nature Communications, 2022
Indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase-1 (IDO1) catalyzes tryptophan-kynurenine metabolism in many inflammatory and cancer diseases. Of note, acute inflammation that occurs immediately after heart injury is essential for neonatal cardiomyocyte proliferation and ...

Cardiac Regeneration in Model Organisms [PDF]

Current Treatment Options in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2014
Myocardial infarction is the most common cause of cardiac injury in humans and results in acute loss of large numbers of myocardial cells. Unfortunately, the mammalian heart is unable to replenish the cells that are lost following a myocardial infarction and an eventual progression to heart failure can often occur as a result.

Controlling 3D Contractility via Engineered Fibrous Hydrogel Composites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A tunable composite contractile assembly (CCA) is developed that can permit or resist contraction without changing cell‐adhesion and density, unlike collagen whose inherent coupling of these ECM cues limits its use as a platform in contractility studies.

Transplantation of progenitor cells and regeneration enhancement in acute myocardial infarction - (TOPCARE-AMI) [PDF]

, 2002
Background - Experimental studies suggest that transplantation of blood-derived or bone marrow–derived progenitor cells beneficially affects postinfarction remodeling.

Micromanaging cardiac regeneration: Targeted delivery of microRNAs for cardiac repair and regeneration

World Journal of Cardiology, 2016
The loss of cardiomyocytes during injury and disease can result in heart failure and sudden death, while the adult heart has a limited capacity for endogenous regeneration and repair. Current stem cell-based regenerative medicine approaches modestly improve cardiomyocyte survival, but offer neglectable cardiomyogenesis.

Cardiac‐Derived ECM Microspheres for Enhanced hiPSC‐CMs Maturation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cardiac extracellular matrix microspheres derived from decellularized porcine heart provide a biomimetic 3D microenvironment for human induced pluripotent stem cell–derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC‐CMs). This platform supports short‐ and long‐term culture, enhances structural organization, and promotes electrophysiological and functional maturation of ...

Epigenetic Biomarkers in Cardiovascular Diseases

Frontiers in Genetics, 2019
Cardiovascular diseases are the number one cause of death worldwide and greatly impact quality of life and medical costs. Enormous effort has been made in research to obtain new tools for efficient and quick diagnosis and predicting the prognosis of ...

Nkx2.5: a crucial regulator of cardiac development, regeneration and diseases

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Cardiomyocytes fail to regenerate after birth and respond to mitotic signals through cellular hypertrophy rather than cellular proliferation. Necrotic cardiomyocytes in the infarcted ventricular tissue are eventually replaced by fibroblasts, generating ...
