Communication between cells is a foundational concept for understanding the physiology and pathology of biological systems. Paracrine/autocrine signaling, direct cell-to-cell interplay, and extracellular matrix interactions are three types of cell ...

Electrical coupling between ventricular myocytes and myofibroblasts in the infarcted mouse heart [PDF]
Aims: Recent studies have demonstrated electrotonic coupling between scar tissue and the surrounding myocardium in cryoinjured hearts. However, the electrical dynamics occurring at the myocyte-nonmyocyte interface in the fibrotic heart remain ...

Estrogen Protects the Female Heart from Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Phosphorylation by Mitochondrial p38β at Threonine 79 and Serine 106. [PDF]
A collective body of evidence indicates that estrogen protects the heart from myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, but the underlying mechanism remains incompletely understood. We have previously delineated a novel mechanism of how 17β-estradiol

Hopx and the Cardiomyocyte Parentage [PDF]
The dissection of steps that pattern primitive mesoderm toward the cardiovascular lineages is important to our current understanding of cardiovascular development and can instruct regenerative approaches to heart repair.1 Primitive precursors that can adopt a cardiovascular fate, but also a subset of other mesoderm, are marked by the transcription ...

Atrial fibrillation and electrophysiology in transgenic mice with cardiac-restricted overexpression of FKBP12 [PDF]
Cardiomyocyte-restricted overexpression of FK506-binding protein 12 transgenic (αMyHC-FKBP12) mice develop spontaneous atrial fibrillation (AF). The aim of the present study is to explore the mechanisms underlying the occurrence of AF in αMyHC-FKBP12 ...

Transplantation of cryopreserved cardiomyocytes [PDF]
The present study examined the survival and rate of contraction of (1) cardiomyocytes cultured from cryopreserved fetal rat myocardium and (2) cryopreserved cultured cardiomyocytes. In addition, the effects of transplantation of cryopreserved fetal cardiomyocytes were evaluated.Segments of fetal rat myocardial tissue (0.2, 2.0, and 6.0 mm(3) mince size)

How to alleviate cardiac injury from electric shocks at the cellular level
Electric shocks, the only effective therapy for ventricular fibrillation, also electroporate cardiac cells and contribute to the high-mortality post-cardiac arrest syndrome.

Mechanisms of exercise-induced improvements in the contractile apparatus of the mammalian myocardium [PDF]
One of the main outcomes of aerobic endurance exercise training is the improved maximal oxygen uptake, and this is pivotal to the improved work capacity that follows the exercise training.
