SOX6 is expressed in various cell lineages in the developing mouse heart and contributes to proper valvuloseptal development

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.

Descriptive, stratigraphic, and morpho‐functional study of the myocardium and myocardial bridges in domestic pig hearts

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The heart is the central organ of the cardiovascular system. The myocardium is composed of a three‐dimensional network of fibers arranged in clockwise and counterclockwise helices, which are essential for proper cardiac contraction. This study aimed to describe the stratigraphic and morpho‐functional pattern of the porcine myocardium to ...

Fasting and Refeeding Mediated Phospholipid Remodeling Plays an Important Role in Improving Meat Quality of Aged Laying Hens

Animal Research and One Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explored fasting‐induced physiological remodeling effects on meat quality in aged laying hens. Fasting for 15 days (F15) significantly reduced abdominal fat, intermuscular fat width, subcutaneous fat thickness, and liver index versus pre‐fasting (F0) (p < 0.05), which recovered post‐refeeding.

Direct toxicity of cigarette smoke extract on cardiac function mediated by mitochondrial dysfunction in Sprague-Dawley rat ventricular myocytes and human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes.

PLoS ONE
Cigarette smoke has been recognized as a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease. However, its direct effects on rodent and human cardiomyocytes and its cellular mechanisms are not fully understood.

Cyclin A2 Induces Human Adult Cardiomyocyte Cytokinesis and Elicits Cardiomyocyte Reprogramming and Dedifferentiation

Abstract Cyclin A2 (CCNA2), a master cell cycle regulator, is silenced in postnatal mammalian cardiomyocytes. We have previously demonstrated its ability to promote cardiac repair in small and large animals when delivered to the heart via a viral vector.

TWEAK/Fn14 Signaling Drives Oxidative Cardiac Injury in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus: Evidence From Patient Biomarker Studies, Lupus Mouse Models, and Cardiomyocyte Assays

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Cardiac involvement is a major cause of morbidity in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Tumor necrosis factor–like weak inducer of apoptosis (TWEAK) is elevated in SLE, but its contribution to lupus‐associated cardiac injury is unclear. We investigated the role of TWEAK/fibroblast growth factor–inducible 14 (Fn14) signaling in SLE‐related ...

Clock Genes Regulate Ca2+ Signaling and Mitochondrial Bioenergetics to Inhibit Sjögren Disease

Arthritis &Rheumatology, EarlyView.
Objective Although Ca2+ signaling and metabolism have been identified as key determinants for the development of Sjögren disease (SjD), the intricate connection between them and salivary gland physiology remains poorly understood. Methods Fluorescence‐based Ca2+ imaging, RNA sequencing, and mitochondrial activity were used to investigate the effects of

Global ischemia induces stemness and dedifferentiation in human adult cardiomyocytes after cardiac arrest

Scientific Reports
Global ischemia has been shown to induce cardiac regenerative response in animal models. One of the suggested mechanisms behind cardiac regeneration is dedifferentiation of cardiomyocytes.

Machine Learning Models of Phase Contrast Images Predict Efficiency of Human Pluripotent Stem Cell Differentiation to Cardiomyocytes

Biotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
Human pluripotent stem cells were differentiated to cTnT+ cardiomyocytes and imaged throughout the process using phase contrast. We predicted differentiation efficiency (cTnT+ area) from phase contrast and compared model performance with a live‐cell cTnT‐GFP reporter.
