A practical approach to remote ischemic preconditioning and ischemic preconditioning against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury

Journal of Biological Methods, 2016
Although urgently needed in clinical practice, a cardioprotective therapeutic approach against myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury remains to be established. Remote ischemic preconditioning (rIPC) and ischemic preconditioning (IPC) represent promising tools comprising three entities: the generation of a protective signal, the transfer of the signal ...

Cardiac surveillance in immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy: Insights from the Essen Cardio‐oncology Registry

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Background and Purpose Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) have revolutionized cancer therapy, offering improvements in survival across various malignancies. However, their toxicities pose a major challenge for cardio‐oncology units. Despite their growing importance, data on effectiveness of such specialized units in mitigating ICI‐associated ...

The ischemic preconditioning effect of adenosine in patients with ischemic heart disease

Cardiovascular Ultrasound, 2009
Introduction In vivo and in vitro evidence suggests that adenosine and its agonists play key roles in the process of ischemic preconditioning. The effects of low-dose adenosine infusion on ischemic preconditioning have not been thoroughly studied in ...

The role of macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) in the pathogenesis and progression of cardiovascular disease

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading global cause of death, driven by complex mechanisms, in which chronic inflammation plays a central role. Inflammatory pathways contribute to all stages of CVD, from endothelial dysfunction and plaque formation to erosion, rupture and myocardial injury.

Heart failure medication to prevent cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction: A narrative review

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Advances in oncological therapies have improved cancer survival but also have increased the clinical incidence of cancer therapy–related cardiac dysfunction (CTRCD), a spectrum of conditions ranging from subclinical biomarker or strain abnormalities to progressive heart failure and cardiogenic shock.

From senescence and inflammaging to systemic comorbidities: Drivers of aging‐associated periodontitis

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Aging is accompanied by a chronic low‐grade inflammatory process, known as inflammaging, as well as immunosenescence, an age‐related decline and dysregulation of immune function, and cellular senescence, a process in which cells enter a state of irreversible growth arrest while actively releasing pro‐inflammatory factors.

Transfer of Cardiac Mitochondria Improves the Therapeutic Efficacy of Mesenchymal Stem Cells in a Preclinical Model of Ischemic Heart Disease

Cells, 2023
Background: The use of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) appears to be a promising therapeutic approach for cardiac repair after myocardial infarction. However, clinical trials have revealed the need to improve their therapeutic efficacy.

Low‐dose X‐ray radiation induces an adaptive response: A potential countermeasure to galactic cosmic radiation exposure

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Space exploration involves many dangers including galactic cosmic radiation (GCR). This class of radiation includes high‐energy protons and heavy ionizing ions. NASA has defined GCR as a carcinogenic risk for long‐duration space missions. To date, no clear strategy has been developed to counter chronic GCR exposure.
