Injectable BMSC‐Based Extracellular Matrix‐Mimicking Microtissue for Myocardial Infarction Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A novel injectable biomimetic extracellular matrix scaffold (JLSV) is designed for enhanced delivery of bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs). By utilizing janus basic nanotubes, laminin, stromal‐derived factor‐1 alpha, and vascular endothelial growth factor, this innovative JLSV–BMSC microtissue shows promise in myocardial infarction ...

Impaired Right Ventricular Mechanics at Rest and During Exercise Are Associated With Exercise Capacity in Patients With Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Impaired right ventricular (RV) function indicates RV involvement in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). We aimed to assess RV function at rest and during exercise in HCM patients and to examine the association between impaired RV

Echocardiography during submaximal isometric exercise in children with repaired coarctation of the aorta compared with controls [PDF]

, 2019
Objective Patients with repaired coarctation (RCoA) remain at higher risk of cardiac dysfunction, initially often only detected during exercise. In this study, haemodynamics of isometric handgrip (HG) and bicycle ergometry (BE) were compared in patients ...

PRDM16 Reduces Cellular Senescence by Upregulating GSTM1

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Cellular senescence drives aging and aging‐related organ disorders, yet PRDM16's role remains unexplored. This work uncovers that PRDM16 decreases significantly in aged organs, while its loss accelerates cellular senescence and aging‐related organ injury.

Adamts1 Exacerbates Post‐Myocardial Infarction Scar Formation via Mechanosensing of Integrin α8

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Proposed mechanistic model of ADAMTS1‐ITGα8 mechanotransduction in post‐MI scar formation. Schematic illustration showing the mechanistic pathway by which endothelial cell (EC) derived Adamts1 regulates cardiac fibroblast activation through ITGα8‐mediated mechanotransduction following myocardial infarction (MI).

HMGB2 Promotes Cardiomyocyte Proliferation and Heart Regeneration Through MTA2‐Driven Metabolic Reprogramming

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In contrast to the adult mammalian heart, which lacks regenerative capacity, the neonatal heart retains a transient regenerative capacity. In this study, high mobility group box 2 (HMGB2) is identified as a crucial protein driving heart regeneration based on comprehensive analyses using quantitative proteomics with tandem mass tag (TMT) labelling, RNA ...
