A Soft Robotic Model for Simulating Heart Valve Disease and Cardiac Interventions

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This paper introduces a fully synthetic fabrication methodology for a soft robotic, in‐vitro model of the left‐heart, complete with a functioning mitral valve apparatus. With a view towards patient‐specific modeling, we demonstrate physiological flow and pressure waveforms, tunable mitral valve function with clinical imaging compatibility, and its use ...

Leftward Displacement of Septum Primum in Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesPediatric Cardiology, 2012
Embryologic development of atrial septum primum antedates formation of the atrioventricular and semilunar valves. Leftward displacement of the superior attachment of septum primum (LDSP) has only been described in hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS).

Mechanisms of Aristolochic Acid Resistance in Specialist Butterflies and Evolutionary Insights for Potential Protective Pathways

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The study provides an extreme example of insect adaptation to highly toxic defenses of host plants, and investigates the complex strategies to resist carcinogenic aristolochic acids, including physical isolation, metabolic detoxification, and DNA repair.

Liver Stiffness Rises Early in MASLD and Drives Inflammation, Lipid Dysmetabolism, and Fibrosis via Piezo1–YAP Mechanotransduction

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Progressive stiffening of the hepatic extracellular matrix and free fatty acid overload activate the mechanosensor Piezo1 in steatotic hepatocytes, inducing calcium influx and nuclear translocation of Yes‐associated protein. YAP‐dependent nuclear signaling further drives inflammatory and fibrotic gene programs, lipid metabolic reprogramming, and ...

The Fate of the Outflow Tract Septal Complex in Relation to the Classification of Ventricular Septal Defects

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2019
It is now established that the entity often described as an “aortopulmonary septal complex„ is better considered as an “outflow tract septal complex„.

Septation of the Intrapericardial Arterial Trunks in the Early Human Embryonic Heart

open access: yesChinese Medical Journal, 2018
Background: Outflow tract (OFT) septation defects are a common cause of congenital heart disease. Numerous studies have focused on the septation mechanism of the OFT, but have reported inconsistent conclusions. This study, therefore, aimed to investigate
