Born early, age fast: Consequences of premature birth on chronic disease and accelerated ageing
Abstract figure legend ELGANs are exposed to several postnatal pro‐oxidant stressors, including ambient and supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, infections, hyperalimentation, excessive glucocorticoids and intermittent hypoxia. Since endogenous antioxidant defences are underdeveloped, this imbalance promotes oxidative stress and inflammation ...

New insights provided by myofibril mechanics in inherited cardiomyopathies [PDF]
Cardiomyopathies represent a heterogeneous group of cardiac disorders that perturb cardiac contraction and/or relaxation, and can result in arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden cardiac death.

Abstract figure legend The capillary–mitochondria–ion channel (CMIC) axis scales structural resources to match functional workload. (Left) In settings of restricted energetic capacity (e.g. cortical neurons), sparse capillary networks and modest mitochondrial pools set a lower energetic ceiling, sufficient to support phasic, low‐workload excitability. (

Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

ABSTRACT Background Impaired muscle regeneration is a key contributor to age‐related muscle decline, yet the molecular mechanisms linking muscle water homeostasis to regenerative failure remain incompletely understood. Aquaporin‐4 (AQP4), a major skeletal muscle water channel, may have functions beyond water transport that are relevant to muscle ...

Hysteresis cycles of a single myofibril.
A A single myofibril consisting of 7 sarcomeres was stretched to an averaged sarcomere length of 3.7μm and subsequently cycled by approximately ± 2.5μm. The small insert shows the corresponding average sarcomere length (red line) ± standard error (black ...

Ocular Manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus Infection in Atlantic Salmon (Salmo salar)
ABSTRACT Eyes are essential sensory organs needed by teleost Atlantic salmon for high visual acuity and survival in both the wild and in aquaculture settings. In this work, we assessed the ocular manifestations of Infectious Salmon Anaemia Virus (ISAV) infection in Atlantic salmon by a cohabitation‐mediated infection assay and histological and ...

Oviductal smooth muscle contractions are important for preimplantation embryo transport under the regulation of steroid hormone signaling. Deletion of serum response factor (Srf) in progesterone receptor (Pgr)‐expressing cells leads to differential expression of 1670 genes in the mouse oviduct, 306 of which are directly bound by SRF.
