Centrosome Reduction Promotes Terminal Differentiation of Human Cardiomyocytes [PDF]
Centrosome reduction and redistribution of pericentriolar material (PCM) coincides with cardiomyocyte transitions to a post-mitotic and matured state. However, it is unclear whether centrosome changes are a cause or consequence of terminal differentiation.

Peroxisomes contribute to intracellular calcium dynamics in cardiomyocytes and non-excitable cells
Using genetically encoded Förster resonance energy transfer calcium sensors for the peroxisome, this study dissects the previously contentious peroxisome involvement in calcium handling in HeLa cells and in cardiomyocytes derived from human induced ...

Cronos Titin is Expressed in Human Cardiomyocytes and Necessary for Normal Sarcomere Function
Background: The giant sarcomere protein titin is important in both heart health and disease. Mutations in the gene encoding for titin, TTN, are the leading known cause of familial dilated cardiomyopathy.

Myofilament Degradation and Dysfunction of Human Cardiomyocytes in Fabry Disease [PDF]
Early detection of myocardial dysfunction in Fabry disease (FD) cardiomyopathy suggests the contribution of myofilament structural alterations. Six males with untreated FD cardiomyopathy submitted to cardiac studies, including tissue Doppler imaging and left ventricular endomyocardial biopsy.

Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Estrogen Protects the Female Heart from Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury through Manganese Superoxide Dismutase Phosphorylation by Mitochondrial p38β at Threonine 79 and Serine 106. [PDF]
A collective body of evidence indicates that estrogen protects the heart from myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury, but the underlying mechanism remains incompletely understood. We have previously delineated a novel mechanism of how 17β-estradiol

A 3D anisotropic hydrogel derived from heart extracellular matrix guides cytoskeletal alignment and nuclear remodeling in reprogrammed cardiomyocyte‐like cells. This study reveals how matrix alignment modulates nuclear envelope dynamics and chromatin state, triggering transcriptional and functional maturation.
