Distinct epigenetic programs regulate cardiac myocyte development and disease in the human heart in vivo

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
How the cardiac myocyte epigenome is rearranged during development, postnatal maturation and disease is not well understood. Here, the authors investigate the human cardiac myocyte epigenome during development and chronic heart failure and identify ...

Cardiac myocyte miR-29 promotes pathological remodeling of the heart by activating Wnt signaling

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Chronic cardiac stress induces pathologic hypertrophy and fibrosis of the myocardium. The microRNA-29 (miR-29) family has been found to prevent excess collagen expression in various organs, particularly through its function in fibroblasts.

Intense myocyte formation from cardiac stem cells in human cardiac hypertrophy [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2003
It is generally believed that increase in adult contractile cardiac mass can be accomplished only by hypertrophy of existing myocytes. Documentation of myocardial regeneration in acute stress has challenged this dogma and led to the proposition that ...

A Broad-Spectrum Chemokine Inhibitor Drives M2 Macrophage Polarization Through Modulation of the Myometrial Secretome [PDF]

open access: yesCells
The uterine smooth muscle (myometrium) is an immunomodulatory tissue capable of secreting multiple chemokines during pregnancy. We propose that before term labor, chemokines secreted as a result of mechanical stretch of the uterine walls by the growing ...

A method to increase reproducibility in adult ventricular myocyte sizing and flow cytometry: Avoiding cell size bias in single cell preparations. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
RATIONALE:Flow cytometry (FCM) of ventricular myocytes (VMs) is an emerging technology in adult cardiac research that is challenged by the wide variety of VM shapes and sizes.

Calsarcin-2 May Play a Compensatory Role in the Development of Obese Sarcopenia

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Although obese sarcopenia is a major public health problem with increasing prevalence worldwide, the factors that contribute to the development of obese sarcopenia are still obscure.

Dexamethasone Treatment Preserves the Structure of Adult Cardiac Explants and Supports Their Long-Term Contractility In Vitro

open access: yesInternational Journal of Translational Medicine, 2023
Normal contractile function of the myocardium is essential for optimal cardiovascular health. Evaluating drug effects on cardiomyocyte function at the cellular level is difficult for long-term studies.

Changes in Cardiomyocyte Cell Cycle and Hypertrophic Growth During Fetal to Adult in Mammals

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2021
The failure of adult cardiomyocytes to reproduce themselves to repair an injury results in the development of severe cardiac disability leading to death in many cases.
