Two Hearts at Risk

JACC: Case Reports, 2020
Hypertrophic obstructive cardiomyopathy (HOCM) increases the risk for mother and fetus during pregnancy. Alcohol septal ablation (ASA) is an established procedure in nonpregnant patients with HOCM. In this report, we present a case of a 29-year-old woman

Effect of chemotherapy on passenger mutations in metastatic colorectal cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Changes in passenger mutation load and predicted immunotherapy response after chemotherapy treatment. Tumor cells rich with passenger mutations have increased sensitivity to chemotherapy. Correlation of passenger mutations with neoantigen load suggests highly mutated clones promote a more effective response to immunotherapy, and therefore, first‐line ...

The impact of Hnrnpl deficiency on transcriptional patterns of developing muscle cells

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We performed nanopore whole‐transcriptome sequencing comparing RNA from Hnrnpl‐knockdown versus control C2C12 myoblasts to investigate the contributions of Hnrnpl to muscle development. Our results indicate that Hnrnpl regulates the expression of genes involved with Notch signaling and skeletal muscle, particularly splicing patterns of specific muscle ...

Echocardiographic Changes Following Surgical Myectomy in Severely Symptomatic Obstructive Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: Insights From the SPIRIT‐HCM Study

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease
Background In obstructive hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, myectomy improves symptoms, quality of life, and left ventricular (LV) outflow tract gradients. We prospectively evaluated the temporal changes in various echo parameters after myectomy.
