Prevalence of hepatitis C and B virus infection in patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy in Brazil: a pilot study

Brazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
The idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy (IDMC) is a disease of the cardiac muscle characterized by systolic dilation and/or dysfunction of one or both ventricles, symptoms of congestive heart failure and risk of early death.

Inter- Not Intraindividual Differences in sTWEAK Levels Predict Functional Deterioration and Mortality in Patients with Dilated Cardiomyopathy

Mediators of Inflammation, 2014
Background. TNF-like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) has been reported to predict mortality in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy. However, whether it can be used as a biomarker for disease monitoring or rather represents a risk factor for disease ...

Cardiosphere-derived cells suppress allogeneic lymphocytes by production of PGE2 acting via the EP4 receptor [PDF]

, 2018
derived cells (CDCs) are a cardiac progenitor cell population, which have been shown to possess cardiac regenerative properties and can improve heart function in a variety of cardiac diseases. Studies in large animal models have predominantly focussed on

The Immune Microenvironment in Liver Cancer: From Analysis to Targeting

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This review explores how smart nanomedicines overcome the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment in liver cancer. It details targeted delivery strategies and immune reprogramming mechanisms, including remodeling abnormal physiology, modulating metabolism, and inducing immunogenic cell death. The article highlights the paradigm shift toward multimodal

Dilated cardiomyopathy: from epidemiologic to genetic phenotypes

Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is characterized by left ventricular dilatation and, consecutively, contractile dysfunction. The causes of DCM are heterogeneous. DCM often results from myocarditis, exposure to alcohol, drugs or other toxins and metabolic or

A Novel Transcriptional Slippage Mechanism Rescues Dystrophin Expression from a DMD Frameshift Variant

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Pathogenic DMD variants usually follow the reading‐frame rule: out‐of‐frame changes cause Duchenne muscular dystrophy, whereas in‐frame ones produce Becker muscular dystrophy (BMD). We report a 23‐year‐old man with BMD‐like weakness, calf hypertrophy, elevated creatine kinase, and dilated cardiomyopathy.

Protein phosphatase 2A anchoring disruptor gene therapy for familial dilated cardiomyopathy

Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development
Familial dilated cardiomyopathy is a prevalent cause of heart failure that results from the mutation of genes encoding proteins of diverse function. Despite modern therapy, dilated cardiomyopathy typically has a poor outcome and is the leading cause of ...

Research Progress and Forensic Identification of Alcoholic Cardiomyopathy [PDF]

Fayixue Zazhi, 2019
With the rapid development of the social economy in China, the incidence of diseases caused by excessive drinking is gradually increasing as well. Alcoholic cardiomyopathy refers to long-term high intake of ethanol, and has typical dilated cardiomyopathy

Noradrenergic and cholinergic innervation of the normal human heart and changes associated with cardiomyopathy

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Autonomic nerves are crucial in cardiac function and pathology. However, data on the distribution of cholinergic and noradrenergic nerves in normal and pathologic human hearts is lacking. Nonfailing donor hearts were pressure‐perfusion fixed, imaged, and dissected. Left ventricular cardiomyopathy samples were also obtained.
