A Novel Pak1 Activator Ameliorates ER Stress for HFpEF Therapy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chronic metabolic stress is a major contributor to HFpEF progression. Under prolonged metabolic stress, Pak1 activity becomes impaired, contributing to disrupted ER proteostasis, cardiomyocyte apoptosis, fibrosis, and diastolic dysfunction. Mechanistically, Pak1 overexpression activates the ERK1/2–MNK1–eIF4E signaling axis, promotes translational ...

Refining a preclinical model of viral myocarditis in accordance with biotech standards

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to refine a murine model of Coxsackievirus B3‐induced myocarditis by integrating dietary and imaging innovations to improve animal welfare, data quality, and clinical applicability. The refined diet significantly reduced animal health burden, reduced weight loss, and stabilized blood glucose during development of cardiac inflammation ...
