Cytoskeleton–Membrane Uncoupling in Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy: Implications for Newborn Screening and Early Protection

Cytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The cytoskeleton of striated muscle integrates force transmission, mechanotransduction, and sarcolemmal stability through coordinated networks of sarcomeres, costameres, and intermediate filaments. Together, these systems establish mechanical continuity between the contractile apparatus, the sarcolemma, and the extracellular matrix.

Effect of Mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism (MRA) on aldosterone-interleukin 6 axis in heart failure; second opinion. A case-control study

The Egyptian Journal of Internal Medicine
Background In cases of heart failure characterized by reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), heightened levels of aldosterone negatively impact the progression of heart failure.

Finerenone cardiorenal effects and its placement in treatment of chronic kidney disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus: A review

Терапевтический архив, 2023
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is one of the most common complications of diabetes mellitus and an independent risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Despite guideline-directed therapy of CKD in patients with type 2 diabetes, the risk of renal failure and

UMOD Genotype and Clinical Outcomes in Heart Failure Patients Treated with Loop Diuretics: A UK Biobank Pharmacogenetic Cohort Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Uromodulin (UMOD) regulates tubular sodium handling and modulates NKCC2, the molecular target of loop diuretics (LD). Although UMOD variants have been associated with blood pressure and hypertension, their pharmacogenetic relevance in heart failure (HF) remains unknown.

Eight weeks of mineralocorticoid blockade does not improve insulin sensitivity in type 2 diabetes

Physiological Reports, 2021
Individuals with type 2 diabetes have an increased risk of cardiovascular disease. A correlation between plasma aldosterone and hyperinsulinemia has been demonstrated in vivo, and hyperinsulinemia and insulin resistance are independently associated with ...

Role of mineralocorticoid receptor in insulin resistance

, 2012
Recent data suggest that mineralocorticoid receptor activation can affect insulin resistance independent of its effects on blood pressure. This review discusses new evidence linking mineralocorticoid receptor to insulin resistance and the underlying ...

Enhancing Evidence Generation by Linking Randomized Clinical Trials to Real‐World Data: The INVESTED‐Medicare Linkage Study

Clinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, EarlyView.
Real‐world evidence (RWE) derived from real‐world data (RWD) can complement randomized controlled trials (RCTs), yet the validity of RWD relative to RCT data remains insufficiently characterized. We obtained post hoc consent and linked individual participant data from the US‐based INVESTED trial (2016–2019) with Medicare fee‐for‐service claims (2012 ...

Obesity, aldosterone excess, and mineralocorticoid receptor activation: Parallel or intersected circumstances?

The Journal of Clinical Hypertension
The obesity pandemic, with its associated comorbidities of hypertension and diabetes, constitutes a global public health issue. Importantly, there is an increasing prevalence of aldosterone excess related to obesity and resultant poor health outcomes ...

Mineralocorticoid Receptor and Cardiovascular Disease [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2018
AbstractActivation of the mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) in the distal nephron by its ligand, aldosterone, plays an important role in sodium reabsorption and blood pressure regulation. However, expression of the MR goes beyond the kidney. It is expressed in a variety of other tissues in which its activation could lead to tissue injury.

Socio‐economic inequalities and heart failure morbidity and mortality: A systematic review and data synthesis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 927-941, April 2025.
Abstract Socio‐economic status (SES) has been associated with incident and prevalent heart failure (HF), as well as its morbidity and mortality. However, the precise nature of the relationship between SES and HF remains unclear due to inconsistent data. This study aims to provide a comprehensive assessment and data synthesis of the relationship between
