The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Genetic Biomarkers in the Risk Assessment of Sudden Cardiac Events: A Personalized Approach
Genetic insights into the risk assessment of sudden cardiac events. ABSTRACT Sudden cardiac events are the leading cause of death worldwide. Conventional risk stratification methods, which largely depend on clinical history, imaging, and electrocardiography, are usually inadequate for identifying high‐risk individuals, especially those without visible ...

The response to cardiac resynchronization therapy in
Aims Cardiac implantable electronic device (CIED) therapy is fundamental to the management of LMNA cardiomyopathy due to the high frequency of atrioventricular block and ventricular tachyarrhythmias. We aimed to define the role of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in impacting heart failure in LMNA ...

Muscle‐Specific Kinase Signaling and Its Therapeutic Potential
ABSTRACT The function of the neuromuscular junction (NMJ) is compromised in many neuromuscular diseases (NMDs) such as autoimmune or congenital myasthenia gravis (MG), amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), spinal muscular atrophy (SMA), and muscular dystrophies.

Myonuclear degeneration in LMNA null mice
Lamins A/C, the major constituent of the nuclear lamina, confer mechanical stability to nuclei. We examined the myonuclei of LMNA null mice at the myotendinous junctions (MTJ), the site of longitudinal force transmission from contractile proteins to extracellular proteins.

Comparative Genomics and Functional Evidence for Convergent Adaptation to Hypoxia in Mammals
This study reveals convergent selection in mammals adapted to hypoxia. Functional assays demonstrate that amino acid mutations reduce oxidative stress, attenuate hypoxia‐induced injury, and modulate the hypoxia‐inducible transcription factor (HIF)‐driven hypoxic response.

Background: Laminopathies are caused by rare alterations in LMNA, leading to a wide clinical spectrum. Though muscular dystrophy begins at early ages, disease progression is different in each patient. We investigated variability in laminopathy phenotypes

Irisin levels in LMNA-associated partial lipodystrophies [PDF]
The adipo-myokine irisin regulates energy expenditure and fat metabolism. LMNA-associated familial partial lipodystrophy (FPLD2) comprises insulin resistance, muscle hypertrophy and lipoatrophy. The aim of this study was to investigate whether irisin could be a biomarker of FPLD2.This case control study included 19 FPLD2 subjects, 13 obese non-diabetic

Cytology‐First Diagnostic Workflow for Melanoma of Unknown Primary With Molecular Profiling
Cytology‑first diagnostic workflow for melanoma of unknown primary. Fine‑needle aspiration of an enlarged lymph node enables rapid cytologic evaluation and immunocytochemical confirmation of melanocytic lineage (SOX10). This early cytologic diagnosis facilitates timely surgical excision and comprehensive genomic profiling, supporting integrated ...
