Cardiovascular β‐Adrenergic Receptor Distribution and Function: Influence of Species, Sex, Age, and Tissue

Comprehensive Physiology, Volume 16, Issue 3, June 2026.
Estrogen modulates β‐AR signaling in a context‐dependent manner influenced by species, sex, age, tissue, and vascular health, highlighting challenges in translating findings from experimental models to human cardiovascular physiology. ABSTRACT Cardiovascular diseases remain the leading global cause of morbidity and mortality, with notable sex‐specific ...

Mitochondrial Transplantation as a New Therapeutic Approach Against Cardiac and Renal Consequences in Male Rats With Myocardial Infarction

Acta Physiologica, Volume 242, Issue 6, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. MI is associated with cardiac structural and functional alterations. Among these, cardiac fibrosis may be significantly influenced by mitochondrial dysfunction. We sought to evaluate whether the injection of functional mitochondria from healthy muscle could improve

Pepducin-mediated cardioprotection via β-arrestin-biased β2-adrenergic receptor-specific signaling [PDF]

, 2018
Reperfusion as a therapeutic intervention for acute myocardial infarction-induced cardiac injury itself induces further cardiomyocyte death. β-arrestin (βarr)-biased β-adrenergic receptor (βAR) activation promotes survival signaling responses in vitro ...

PAF Triggered Pyroptotic NETosis Aggravates Myocardial Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 25, 4 May 2026.
Platelet activating factor (PAF) secreted by cardiomyocytes during MI/R, drives NETs formation and subsequent NETosis. PAF/NETosis signaling activation is an initiative and causal factor in driving MI/R injury. This study identifies dapagliflozin as a potent NETosis inhibitor, and demonstrates that manipulating PAF‐NETosis signal by dapagliflozin or ...

Molecular Mechanisms in Exercise-Induced Cardioprotection

Cardiology Research and Practice, 2011
Physical inactivity is increasingly recognized as modifiable behavioral risk factor for cardiovascular diseases. A partial list of proposed mechanisms for exercise-induced cardioprotection include induction of heat shock proteins, increase in cardiac ...

Intersecting Molecular Pathways in Cardiovascular Disease and Diabetes Mellitus: Emerging Roles of Inflammation and Therapeutics

Diabetes/Metabolism Research and Reviews, Volume 42, Issue 4, May 2026.
Central illustration: Pathophysiological mechanisms linking diabetes mellitus and cardiovascular disease. Chronic hyperglycaemia, insulin resistance, and low‐grade inflammation contribute to endothelial dysfunction, myocardial fibrosis, and cardiomyocyte apoptosis.

Postconditioning: a form of "modified reperfusion" protects the myocardium by activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-akt pathway [PDF]

, 2004
Brief intermittent episodes of ischemia and reperfusion, at the onset of reperfusion after a prolonged period of ischemia, confer cardioprotection, a phenomenon termed "ischemic postconditioning" (Postcond).

Cardiovascular Benefits of Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen) Supplementation: Bioactive Constituents, Mechanisms, Clinical Evidence and Implications for Nutritional Care

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 5, May 2026.
Salvia miltiorrhiza (Danshen) contains bioactive tanshinones, including tanshinone IIA, cryptotanshinone, and tanshinone I, that exert cardioprotective effects through coordinated modulation of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor (VEGFR), transforming growth factor beta 1 (TGF‐β1), transforming growth factor beta receptor (TGF‐βR), toll‐like ...

CD40 is constitutively expressed on platelets and provides a novel mechanism for platelet activation [PDF]

, 2003
CD40 is a 48-kDa phosphorylated transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the TNF receptor superfamily. CD40 has been demonstrated on a range of cell types, and it has an important role in adaptive immunity and inflammation.
