On the involvement of the second heart field in congenital heart defects

open access: yesComptes Rendus Biologies
Congenital heart defects (CHD) affect 1 in 100 live births and result from defects in cardiac development. Growth of the early heart tube occurs by the progressive addition of second heart field (SHF) progenitor cells to the cardiac poles.

Mitral and tricuspid valve repair in an operated case of complete atrioventricular septal defect: A surgical challenge case report!

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports
Atrioventricular canal defects constitute about 3%–5% of total congenital heart defects, with a prevalence of 0.3–0.4/1000 live births. Mitral valve defects are associated with atrioventricular canal (septal) defects in most cases.

The Endothelial CXCR Family in Vascular Health and Disease

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Endothelial cells (ECs) form the dynamic interface between blood and tissue, serving as key regulators of vascular homeostasis, inflammation, and repair. Among the molecular systems governing endothelial behavior, the C‐X‐C motif chemokine receptor (CXCR) family—originally characterized in immunology for its roles in leukocyte trafficking and ...
