Abstract figure legend Stretch‐activated ion channels: clinical relevance and in silico characterization of their pro‐arrhythmic effects. Top: an impact on the chest could result in ventricular fibrillation followed by sudden cardiac death. At the cell level, such impact results in mechanical stretch of the cardiomyocytes, and therefore, in the opening

Implanted Carbon Nanotubes Harvest Electrical Energy from Heartbeat for Medical Implants
This novel “Twistron energy cell harvester” (TECH), consisting of coiled carbon nanotube yarn, produces electrical energy from mechanical contraction. The TECH device is applied to an artificial heartbeat system and in a second step to a porcine heart and is able continuously generated electrical energy from cardiac contraction.

Prenatal Diagnosis of Cantrell’s Pentalogy Associated with Agenesis of Left Limb in a Twin Pregnancy
Pentalogy of Cantrell is a rare malformation described in the literature. We report a case of pentalogy of Cantrell associated with left limb deficiency in a twin pregnancy. The fetus with multiple anomalies revealed kyphosis, ectopia cordis, and a large

A knock‐in allele of Hand2 expressing Dre recombinase
Summary HAND2 is a basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor with diverse functions during development. To facilitate the investigation of genetic and functional diversity among Hand2‐expressing cells in the mouse, we have generated Hand2Dre, a knock‐in allele expressing Dre recombinase. To avoid disrupting Hand2 function, the Dre cDNA is inserted at
