ZSF1 lean rats – How healthy are they?

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
This study aimed to examine the health status, specifically the physiology and myocardial, vascular, and skeletal muscle function of lean ZSF1 rats by comparing them to age‐ and sex‐matched Wistar rats. Compared to Wistar controls, ZSF1 lean rats exhibited lower body weight, but showed increased heart, and skeletal muscle mass.

Renal vessel–assisted anastomosis improves the abdominal heart transplant model in rats without bilateral lower limb ischemia

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
A modified heterotopic heart transplantation (HTx) in rats was reported to improve the surgical success rate, in which the donor's vessels, the brachiocephalic trunk (BT) and the pulmonary artery (PA), were sutured to the recipient's left renal artery (RA) and left renal vein (RV).

Chronic high‐fat diet induces multi‐organ dysfunction and metabolic homeostasis disruption in Macaca fascicularis

Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
An 18‐month HFD successfully established a translational Macaca fascicularis model replicating key metabolic disorders (MASH, diabetes, cardiac hypertrophy). MASH was determined by liver biopsy histology, the presence steatosis, inflammatory infiltration, hepatocytic ballooning, and fibrosis were considered as MASH; diabetes was diagnosed according to ...

Left ventricular short-axis systolic function changes in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy detected by two-dimensional speckle tracking imaging

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2018
Background Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a genetic disease was characterised by left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), myocardial fibrosis, fiber disarray. The short-axis systolic function is important in left ventricle function.

Trametinib in Adults with Neurofibromatosis Type 1‐Related Symptomatic Plexiform Neurofibromas

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Mitogen‐activated protein kinase kinase inhibitors have shown promising results in treatment of plexiform neurofibromas in neurofibromatosis type 1 patients, but data in adults are limited. The aim of this phase 2 study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of trametinib in adults with neurofibromatosis type 1.

Ischaemia as a cause of LVOT gradient reversal in HCM

Echo Research and Practice, 2017
We present the case of a previously fit 84-year-old female with long-standing systemic hypertension and the echo phenotype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) – asymmetrical septal hypertrophy, significant resting left ventricular (LV) outflow ...

Co‐Opting MBNL‐Dependent Alternative Splicing Cassette Exons to Control Gene Therapy in Myotonic Dystrophy

Annals of Neurology, EarlyView.
Objective Myotonic dystrophy type 1 (DM1) is a highly variable, multisystemic genetic disorder caused by a CTG repeat expansion in the 3′ untranslated region of DMPK. Toxicity is exerted by repeat‐containing DMPK transcripts that sequester muscleblind‐like (MBNL) proteins and lead to deleterious yet predictable changes in alternative splicing.
