Intermittent Levosimendan Administration for Advanced Heart Failure Treatment in Adults with Congenital Heart Disease (Levo-ACHD Study)

open access: yesMedicina
Background and Objective: Heart failure (HF) is a major cause of morbidity in adults with congenital heart disease (ACHD), who may also have limited access to transplant.

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Case Report: Sustained ventricular arrhythmia in a child supported by a Berlin heart EXCOR ventricular assist device

open access: yesFrontiers in Transplantation
Mechanical circulatory support is an established therapy to support failing hearts as a bridge to transplantation. Although tolerated overall, arrhythmias may occur after ventricular assist device implantation and can complicate patient management.

pH‐mediated activation of the lysosomal arginine sensor SLC38A9

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cells monitor nutrient levels via the lysosomal transporter SLC38A9 to activate the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1). This study reveals that SLC38A9 function is regulated by pH. We identified histidine 544 as a critical pH sensor that undergoes conformational changes to control amino acid efflux from lysosomes; therefore, it ...

Case Report: Analysis of the missed diagnosis of atrial septal defect with partial pulmonary vein dual drainage

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine
ObjectiveThis study aimed to investigate the reasons for the misdiagnosis of a case of atrial septal defect (ASD) complicated by partial anomalous pulmonary venous connection (PAPVC) to improve clinical diagnosis accuracy in similar cases.MethodsThe ...

PARK(ing) time–How park deficiency affects the biological clock in a Drosophila model of Parkinson's disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Drosophila park mutants serve as a model for Parkinson's disease. We used this strain to investigate the connection between oxidative stress and the circadian clock mechanism. We showed that increased oxidative stress affects the physiology of pacemaker cells, disrupting their daily structural plasticity. Lack of rhythmic signaling from pacemaker cells

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.
