Sacubitril/Valsartan Ameliorates Crizotinib-Induced Cardiotoxicity in Mice
Background: Lung cancer is one of the major cause of death globally. Crizotinib is a first-line drug used in treating non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). However, the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying its cardiotoxicity are unknown.

Myosin heavy chain 7 (MYH7) encodes the human heart myosin heavy chain subunit, which plays an important role in myocardial contraction. MYH7 is the main pathogenic gene that causes Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM).

Recessive MYH7-related myopathy in two families [PDF]
Myopathies due to recessive MYH7 mutations are exceedingly rare, reported in only two families to date. We describe three patients from two families (from Australia and the UK) with a myopathy caused by recessive mutations in MYH7. The Australian family was homozygous for a c.5134C > T, p.Arg1712Trp mutation, whilst the UK patient was compound ...

Genetic Study of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy in Iranian children: The Role of a De novo Variant [PDF]
Background and Objectives: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is a common cardiac disease diagnosed in young adults and rarely detectable in childhood. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy exhibits considerable diversity in its clinical and genetic characteristics.

Unique Transcriptional Profile of Sustained Ligand-Activated Preconditioning in Pre- and Post-Ischemic Myocardium [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Opioidergic SLP (sustained ligand-activated preconditioning) induced by 3–5 days of opioid receptor (OR) agonism induces persistent protection against ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) injury in young and aged hearts, and is mechanistically distinct

Rapid diagnostic testing of a neonate in a family with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common but severe genetic disease. A pregnant woman with familial HCM was referred to our hospital as both the couple and their families were concerned that the baby would later develop HCM.

Myosin is vital for body movement and heart contractility. Mutations in MYH7, encoding slow/β-cardiac myosin heavy chain, are an important cause of hypertrophic and dilated cardiomyopathy, as well as skeletal muscle disease. A dominant missense mutation (
