Exercise intensity‐dependent cardiac telocyte expansion is associated with physiological growth despite JAK/STAT pathway inactivity in male Wistar rats

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract While exercise induces physiological cardiac growth, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain incompletely understood. This study investigated the role of cardiac telocytes (TCs) and the Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) pathway in mediating exercise intensity‐dependent cardiac adaptation.

Postoperative chylothorax following surgical transection of a left ligamentum arteriosum in a cat with a persistent right aortic arch

Veterinary Record Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 2, May 2026.
Abstract A 6‐month‐old intact female domestic shorthair cat was presented for surgical correction of a vascular ring anomaly. The main clinical sign on presentation was persistent regurgitation after ingestion of solid food. Computed tomography of the thorax confirmed the diagnosis of a persistent right aortic arch (PRAA) with a left ligamentum ...

Intractable hyperkalemia due to nicorandil induced potassium channel syndrome

Annals of Cardiac Anaesthesia, 2015
Nicorandil is a commonly used antianginal agent, which has both nitrate-like and ATP-sensitive potassium (K ATP ) channel activator properties. Activation of potassium channels by nicorandil causes expulsion of potassium ions into the extracellular space

Adipocytes in Aortic Stenosis: Association With Clinical and Morphological Indices

Clinical Anatomy, Volume 39, Issue 3, Page 325-331, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Recently, great attention has been given to understanding the new pathogenetic mechanisms underlying aortic stenosis (AS). The study aims to understand the role of mature adipocytes in AS and their association with histologic, clinical, and echocardiographic data, an area previously overlooked in AS research.
