Role of Implantable Cardioverter Defibrillators in the Treatment of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an important cardiovascular disease with sudden cardiac death as the most devastating presentation. Implantable cardioverter defibrillators (ICD) are the optimal therapy for prevention of sudden death from ventricular

An arcane cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Last February, the Lancet and the New England Journal of Medicine almost simultaneously published two interesting case reports on an arcane cardiomyopathy [1, 2]. The New York Times drew attention to these papers in their Health Section as ‘A Medical Mystery Solved’. A 55-year-old man is described.

In the context of chronic hyperglycemia, a DDR is initiated, leading to the pathological activation of DNA‐PKcs in the diabetic heart. This activated DNA‐PKcs directly interacts with and phosphorylates YAP1 at Thr226, thereby increasing the nuclear expression of YAP1.

Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is an important cause of heart failure and the leading indication for heart transplantation. Many rare genetic variants have been associated with DCM, but common variant studies of the disease have yielded few associated loci.

Takotsubo cardiomyopathy and sepsis: a systematic review [PDF]
Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is characterized by a systolic dysfunction localized in the apical and medial aspect of the left ventricle. It is usually related to physical or emotional stress.

In vivo experiments suggest that cardiomyocyte hypertrophy is an early manifestation of cardiac pathological changes induced by chronic psychological stress. In vivo and in vitro experiments suggest that the corticosterone‐glucocorticoid receptor‐LAMA5 axis mediates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by chronic psychological stress. The clinical results

Plasma Metabolites–Based Prediction in Cardiac Surgery–Associated Acute Kidney Injury
Background Cardiac surgery–associated acute kidney injury (CSA‐AKI) is a common postoperative complication following cardiac surgery. Currently, there are no reliable methods for the early prediction of CSA‐AKI in hospitalized patients.

Nanoscale Curvature Regulates YAP/TAZ Nuclear Localization Through Nuclear Deformation and Rupture
This study uses experiments and biophysical modeling to examine the response and adaptation of cells to nanoscale topography of surfaces. It is shown that cytoskeletal assembly and nuclear localization of transcription regulatory factors such as yes‐associated protein (YAP) and transcriptional coactivator with PDZ‐binding motif (TAZ) can be tuned by ...
