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 ...

Impact of age on pulmonary artery systolic pressures at rest and with exercise
Echo Research and Practice, 2016 Aim: It is not well known if advancing age influences normal rest or exercise pulmonary artery pressures. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the association of increasing age with measurements of pulmonary artery systolic pressure at rest and with ...

In Vitro Flow Modelling for Mitral Valve Leakage Quantification [PDF]
, 2009 In this study particle image velocimetry (PIV) is used to measure and visualise the blood flow through a leaking mitral heart valve. The results are compared with the results from Doppler echocardiography and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Using CAD,

Right Heart Remodeling in Patients with End-Stage Alcoholic Liver Cirrhosis: Speckle Tracking Point of View [PDF]
, 2019 BACKGROUND: Data regarding cardiac remodeling in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis are scarce. We sought to investigate right atrial (RA) and right ventricular (RV) structure, function, and mechanics in patients with alcoholic liver cirrhosis.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.This study primarily reveals that PM2.5‐derived Fe‐containing particles, particularly magnetite, are specifically enriched in the heart. Here, they interact with NCOA4 in endothelial cells, disrupt iron homeostasis by enhancing ferritinophagy, and subsequently trigger the process of EndMT through the NCOA4/KLF5 pathway.

Inter-observer variability for cardiac ultrasound measurements in cats repeated at different time points in early adult life [PDF]
, 2018 A high degree of accuracy is required when using echocardiography to diagnose hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) in cats, as variation in measurements of 0.5 mm may affect classification of individuals as ‘abnormal’.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Increased hepatic angiotensinogen (AGT) abundance leads to cardiac diastolic dysfunction via the AngII‐independent pathway. Liver‐derived AGT is internalized by LRP2 in cardiac endothelial cells, subsequently contributing to myocardial diastolic dysfunction by suppressing microvascular angiogenesis via inhibiting the GATA2/Pim3 pathway.
