Compartmentation of cAMP in Cardiomyocytes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The second messenger cAMP is responsible for β-adrenergic receptor (-AR) stimulation of cardiac function by catecholamines, but is also elevated in response to several other receptors which exert distinct functional effects on the heart. Evidences that spatial segregation of cAMP signalling may explain these observations are reviewed in this chapter ...

Cardiomyocyte remodeling in ischemic heart disease

open access: yes, 2008
Objective. The aim of the study was to detect changes in left ventricular cardiomyocyte size and shape in response to chronic ischemia and loss of cardiac tissue (myocardial infarction) during the course of ischemic heart disease (IHD).

Stereological estimation of cardiomyocyte number and proliferation

open access: yes, 2021
Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death, largely due to the limited regenerative capacity of the adult mammalian heart. Yet, neonatal mammals were shown to regenerate the myocardium after injury by increasing the proliferation of pre ...

SR‐A3 Promotes USP18‐Mediated deISGylation of STING to Protect Against Myocardial Ischemia‐Reperfusion Injury

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
MI/RI is a major clinical challenge with high morbidity and mortality. This study demonstrates that SR‐A3 expression is downregulated in MI/RI, and its deletion exacerbates damage via the USP18/ISG15/STING axis, revealing SR‐A3 as a potential therapeutic target.

Mammalian STE20-Like Kinase 2 Promotes Lipopolysaccharides-Mediated Cardiomyocyte Inflammation and Apoptosis by Enhancing Mitochondrial Fission

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2020
In this study, we analyzed the role of mammalian STE20-like protein kinase 2 (Mst2), a serine-threonine protein kinase, in Lipopolysaccharides (LPS)-mediated inflammation and apoptosis in the H9C2 cardiomyocytes.

Pioglitazone Induces Cardiomyocyte Apoptosis and Inhibits Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy Via VEGFR-2 Signaling Pathway

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Pioglitazone has been widely used as an insulin-sensitizing agent for improving glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, cardiovascular risk and protective effects of pioglitazone remain controversial. Objectives:

Targeting β2‐Adrenergic Receptor Stability With Lycorine Reveals a Host‐Directed Pathway for Antiviral Defense Against Poxviruses

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic stress drives autophagy‐mediated β2‐AR degradation, impairing antiviral immunity and promoting poxvirus lethality. Lycorine directly stabilizes β2‐AR to restore host defense, suppress excessive inflammation and improve survival. ABSTRACT Psychological stress is a pervasive yet poorly understood modulator of infectious disease outcomes. Here, we

Cardiomyocyte differentiation: Experience and observations from 2 laboratories

open access: yesSA Heart Journal, 2017
The undifferentiated clonal cell line, H9c2, derived from left ventricular rat heart tissue, has been extensively used in cardiovascular research. In the present study, 2 independent laboratories aimed to investigate the cells’ capacity to differentiate ...
