Endothelial-Myocardial Angiocrine Signaling in Heart Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Vascular endothelial cells are a multifunctional cell type with organotypic specificity in their function and structure. In this review, we discuss various subpopulations of endothelial cells in the mammalian heart, which spatiotemporally regulate ...

TEAD-independent mechanisms of YAP function in cardiomyocyte cell cycle reentry

open access: yesLife Science Alliance
This study demonstrates that YAP6SA promotes cardiomyocyte cell cycling through TEAD-independent pathways, suggesting a novel therapeutic approach for heart repair.

Rigid microenvironments promote cardiac differentiation of mouse and human embryonic stem cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
While adult heart muscle is the least regenerative of tissues, embryonic cardiomyocytes are proliferative, with embryonic stem (ES) cells providing an endless reservoir.

A Computational Model for Cardiomyocytes Mechano-Electric Stimulation to Enhance Cardiac Tissue Regeneration

open access: yesMathematics, 2020
Electrical and mechanical stimulations play a key role in cell biological processes, being essential in processes such as cardiac cell maturation, proliferation, migration, alignment, attachment, and organization of the contractile machinery.

Genome-wide transcriptomics analysis identifies sox7 and sox18 as specifically regulated by gata4 in cardiomyogenesis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
This work was supported by British Heart Foundation (BHF Project Grant no PG/13/23/30080 to B.A.A and S.H.), Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council (BB/M001695/1 to S.H.) and the University of Aberdeen (for A.T.L).

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.

Glucose inhibits cardiac muscle maturation through nucleotide biosynthesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The heart switches its energy substrate from glucose to fatty acids at birth, and maternal hyperglycemia is associated with congenital heart disease. However, little is known about how blood glucose impacts heart formation.

Cardiomyocyte Maturation [PDF]

open access: yesCirculation Research, 2020
Maturation is the last phase of heart development that prepares the organ for strong, efficient, and persistent pumping throughout the mammal’s lifespan. This process is characterized by structural, gene expression, metabolic, and functional specializations in cardiomyocytes as the heart transits from fetal to adult states.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Intrinsic aerobic capacity sets a divide for aging and longevity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
<p><b>Rationale:</b> Low aerobic exercise capacity is a powerful predictor of premature morbidity and mortality for healthy adults as well as those with cardiovascular disease.
