Outflow Tract Formation—Embryonic Origins of Conotruncal Congenital Heart Disease
Anomalies in the cardiac outflow tract (OFT) are among the most frequent congenital heart defects (CHDs). During embryogenesis, the cardiac OFT is a dynamic structure at the arterial pole of the heart.

Cardiovascular Morphological Changes in Metabolic and Endocrine Disorders: A Narrative Review
Metabolic and endocrine disorders profoundly influence cardiovascular morphology through complex mechanisms that converge on endothelial dysfunction.

TrxR2 deletion in diabetic mice suppresses TUFM‐AMPK‐FUNDC1‐dependent mitophagy in endothelial cells, resulting in SCP2 upregulation and mitochondrial translocation of ACSL4. Mitochondrial ACSL4 promotes mitochondrial eicosanoid biosynthesis and ferroptosis, thereby aggravating cardiac microvascular injury and diabetic cardiomyopathy.

A modified approach was developed to accurately identify the isovolumetric relaxation time (IVRT) using an apical three‐chamber view. Compared with conventional echocardiography, isovolumic relaxation strain imaging (IVSI) helps to detect the earlier alternations of diastolic function in transverse aortic constriction (TAC) mice.

BackgroundUnlike arteries, in which regionally distinct hemodynamics are associated with phenotypic heterogeneity, the relationships between endocardial endothelial cell phenotype and intraventricular flow remain largely unexplored.

Abstract Background Sporadic venous malformation (VM) is associated with the hyperactivating p.L914F mutation in TIE2, a receptor tyrosine kinase essential for vascular development. This mutation is not found in hereditary VM, suggesting incompatibility with life when expressed during early vascular development.

Heg1 and Ccm1/2 proteins control endocardial mechanosensitivity during zebrafish valvulogenesis
Endothelial cells respond to different levels of fluid shear stress through adaptations of their mechanosensitivity. Currently, we lack a good understanding of how this contributes to sculpting of the cardiovascular system.

Abstract Aims The extent of irreversible cardiomyocyte necrosis after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is a major determinant of residual left ventricular (LV) function and clinical outcome. Cell therapy based on CD34+ cells has emerged as an option to help repair the myocardium and to improve outcomes.

ABSTRACT Objective Pre‐eclampsia (PE) and fetal growth restriction (FGR) have been shown to impact fetal cardiac remodeling in the third trimester and postnatally, with evidence to suggest that this leads to increased long‐term cardiovascular risk. This study aimed to examine fetal cardiac remodeling in pregnancies with PE and/or FGR during the second ...
