Inhibition of Autophagy Signaling via 3-methyladenine Rescued Nicotine-Mediated Cardiac Pathological Effects and Heart Dysfunctions. [PDF]

, 2020
Rationale: Cigarette smoking is a well-established risk factor for myocardial infarction and sudden cardiac death. The deleterious effects are mainly due to nicotine, but the mechanisms involved and theranostics remain unclear.

Left ventricular clefts - incidental finding or pathologic sign of Wilson's disease? [PDF]

, 2019
Background: Wilson’s disease is an inherited autosomal recessive multi-systemic disorder characterized by reduced excretion and consequently excessive accumulation of copper in different organs, such as the heart. Results: In a prospective controlled

Activation of Spinal Astrocyte α2A Adrenoceptors Protects Against Sepsis‐Induced Heart Injury Through Inhibition of GABAergic Neuronal Necroptosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study in this paper found that activating the α2A receptors of astrocytes in the thoracic spinal cord can reduce the release of inflammatory factors, thereby decreasing the necroptosis of GABAergic neurons and consequently alleviating myocardial injury caused by sepsis.

Epigenetic Down-Regulation of Sirt 1 via DNA Methylation and Oxidative Stress Signaling Contributes to the Gestational Diabetes Mellitus-Induced Fetal Programming of Heart Ischemia-Sensitive Phenotype in Late Life. [PDF]

, 2019
Rationale: The incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is increasing worldwide. However, whether and how GDM exposure induces fetal programming of adult cardiac dysfunctional phenotype, especially the underlying epigenetic molecular mechanisms ...

ER‐phagy Activation by AMFR Attenuates Cardiac Fibrosis Post‐Myocardial Infarction via mTORC1 Pathway

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
By catalyzing FAM134B ubiquitination and activating ER‐phagy, AMFR alleviates progressive fibrosis and cardiac dysfunction by inhibiting the mTORC1 pathway. Consequently, these findings underscore the essential role of AMFR‐driven ER‐phagy in mitigating the progression of fibrotic responses, offering a potential therapeutic target for preventing heart ...

Fetal Congenital Complete Heart Block: A Rare Case with an Extremely Low Ventricular Rate and Review of Current Management Strategies

Children, 2023
Congenital complete heart block (CCHB) is associated with high intrauterine and post-natal mortality. Prenatal detection and management, as well as appropriate delivery planning, may improve the outcomes in CCHB.

Gender differences in cardiac left ventricular mass and function: clinical and experimental observations [PDF]

, 2014
Background: The aim of this study was to evaluate gender-associated impact on left ventricular mass (LVM) and on left ventricular function (LVF) in humans and rats with aging. Methods: Myocyte area and collagen volume fraction (CVF) were studied in rats.

Rapamycin Alleviates Heart Failure Caused by Mitochondrial Dysfunction and SERCA Hypoactivity in Syntaxin 12/13 Deficient Models

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Rapamycin alleviates heart failure via TFEB and CaMKII pathways in Syntaxin 12/13 deficient models. Stx12 deficiency causes heart failure via impaired iron trafficking to mitochondria, reducing respiratory complexes and sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+‐ATPase (SERCA).
