A chromEM-staining protocol optimized for cardiac tissue

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2023
Three-dimensional (3D) chromatin organization has a key role in defining the transcription program of cells during development. Its alteration is the cause of gene expression changes responsible for several diseases. Thus, we need new tools to study this

Cardiac Specific Gene Expression Changes in Long Term Culture of Murine Mesenchymal Stem Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Murine MSCs are a readily available source of adult stem cells enabling extensive in vitro study of this cell population. MSCs have been described as multipotent, and have been proven capable of differentiation into several connective tissue types ...

Heterocellularity and Cellular Cross-Talk in the Cardiovascular System

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2018
Cellular specialization and interactions with other cell types are the essence of complex multicellular life. The orchestrated function of different cell populations in the heart, in combination with a complex network of intercellular circuits of ...

NMR-Based Metabolomic Analysis of Cardiac Tissues Clarifies Molecular Mechanisms of CVB3-Induced Viral Myocarditis and Dilated Cardiomyopathy

open access: yesMolecules, 2022
Viral myocarditis (VMC), which is defined as inflammation of the myocardium with consequent myocardial injury, may develop chronic disease eventually leading to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). Molecular mechanisms underlying the progression from acute VMC (

Impact of tissue microstructure on a model of cardiac electromechanics based on MRI data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cardiac motion is a vital process as it sustains the pumping of blood in the body. For this reason motion abnormalities are often associated with severe cardiac pathologies.

Natural biomaterials in the management of the aortic valve pathology. Biomedical and clinical aspects: A review

open access: yesBiomolecules & Biomedicine
Heart valve diseases are a prevalent cardiovascular pathology worldwide, affecting nearly 2.5% of the population. Degenerative aortic stenosis is the most common form of heart valve disease.

Control of scroll wave turbulence using resonant perturbations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Turbulence of scroll waves is a sort of spatio-temporal chaos that exists in three-dimensional excitable media. Cardiac tissue and the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction are examples of such media.

A pseudo active kinematic constraint for a biological living soft tissue: an effect of the collagen network [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Recent studies in mammalian hearts show that left ventricular wall thickening is an important mechanism for systolic ejection and that during contraction the cardiac muscle develops significant stresses in the muscular cross-fiber direction. We suggested

Advances in Cardiac Tissue Engineering

open access: yesBioengineering, 2022
Tissue engineering has paved the way for the development of artificial human cardiac muscle patches (hCMPs) and cardiac tissue analogs, especially for treating Myocardial infarction (MI), often by increasing its regenerative abilities. Low engraftment rates, insufficient clinical application scalability, and the creation of a functional vascular system

Endogenous driving and synchronization in cardiac and uterine virtual tissues: bifurcations and local coupling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Cardiac and uterine muscle cells and tissue can be either autorhythmic or excitable. These behaviours exchange stability at bifurcations produced by changes in parameters, which if spatially localized can produce an ectopic pacemaking focus.
