Mechanotransduction of autotransplants: remodeling potential of heart valves from autologous pericardial tissue

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
Current commercial heart valve prostheses are non-living structures, either derived from artificial materials (mechanical valves) or foreign biological materials (xeno- or homo-graft).

Simultaneous Repair of Iatrogenic Left Atrial and Aortic Perforations Using Ductus Arteriosus Occluders: A Case Report

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Iatrogenic perforation of the left atrium and aorta during transseptal puncture (TSP) is a rare but potentially life‐threatening complication. This report presents the case of an elderly male patient with a 20‐year history of atrial fibrillation who experienced this complication during a scheduled left atrial appendage closure procedure ...

Incidence and Predictors of Hypoattenuated Thickening and Device‐Related Thrombus at Three Months Postprocedural CT Assessment Following Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion With Amplatzer Devices—A Single‐Center Cohort

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Left atrial appendage occlusion (LAAO) has become a valuable alternative to long‐term anticoagulation for stroke prevention in patients with non‐valvular atrial fibrillation (AF), especially in those at high bleeding risk. Hypoattenuated thickening (HAT) and device‐related thrombus (DRT) remain notable postprocedural concerns ...

Treatment of Coronary Perforation in a Bifurcation: Two‐Stent Strategies With Fenestrated Covered Stents

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Coronary perforations are a dreaded complication for any interventional cardiologist. The treatment of this complication is exceptionally difficult when it occurs in a coronary bifurcation. While a conservative approach or a balloon occlusion might be sufficient in some cases, additional treatment is sometimes necessary.

Cytopathologic Features of Metastatic Malignant Mesothelioma With SMARCB1 (INI‐1) Deficient Diagnosed by Ultrasound‐Guided Fine‐Needle Aspiration: A Case Report

open access: yesDiagnostic Cytopathology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Malignant mesothelioma (MM) is a rare yet aggressive neoplasm that arises from mesothelial cells lining the thoracic and abdominal cavities, the pericardium, and the tunica testis. Characterized by rapid progression, high invasiveness, and a poor prognosis, MM poses significant clinical challenges. SMARCB1, also referred to as INI‐1, hSNF5, or

Lineage labeling with zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 recombinase CRISPR knock‐ins

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background The ability to generate endogenous Cre recombinase drivers using CRISPR‐Cas9 knock‐in technology allows lineage tracing, cell type‐specific gene studies, and in vivo validation of inferred developmental trajectories from phenotypic and gene expression analyses. This report describes endogenous zebrafish hand2 Cre and CreERT2 drivers

Protein turnover downstream of the Nipbl/CRL4 axis contributes to abnormal development in zebrafish embryos

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Mutations in cohesins cause cohesinopathies such as Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) and Roberts Syndrome (RBS). Prior findings demonstrate that Esco2 (a cohesin activator) and Smc3 (a core cohesin subunit) regulate the CRL4 E3 ubiquitin ligase. SMC3 mutations, however, account for a small percentage of CdLS.

A Rare Giant Pleural Thymoma in Posterior Mediastinum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Thymoma is an epithelial neoplasm of the thymus, which commonly lies in the anterior mediastinum. Unusually, thymomas can also be found in other locations. Surgical excision, when feasible, appears to provide good results. We encountered a rare case of a
