Echocardiography in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy – still a chief diagnostic tool [PDF]

Българска кардиология
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is one of the most common hereditary cardiomyopathies in daily practice. The different phenotypic manifestations and hemodynamic features often make diagnosis and therapy a clinical challenge.

ABCDEG Stress Echocardiography in Aortic Stenosis

Diagnostics, 2023
Rest and stress echocardiography (SE) plays a pivotal role in the evaluation of valvular heart disease. The use of SE is recommended in valvular heart disease when there is a mismatch between resting transthoracic echocardiography findings and symptoms ...

SerpinA3 is an Endogenous TGF‐β Receptor Antagonist that Attenuates Cardiac Fibroblast Activation and Fibrotic Remodeling

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SerpinA3 acts as an endogenous TGF‐β receptor antagonist that binds to the extracellular domain of TGFR‐1, thereby preventing TGFR‐1–TGFR‐2 complex formation. This receptor‐level blockade suppresses TGF‐β/Smad2/3 signaling, attenuates cardiac fibroblast activation, and extracellular matrix deposition, and ultimately alleviates pressure overload–induced

Stress echo for evaluation of valvular heart disease

Indian Heart Journal, 2014
Resting echocardiography is the most important tool for diagnosing valvular heart disease. However, treatment planning in valvular heart diseases may require additional information in some patients, particularly asymptomatic patients with severe valve ...

The Clinical Utility and Enduring Versatility of Stress Echocardiography

, 2019
Stress echocardiography is an established cardiac imaging modality for the detection and quantification of severity of coronary artery disease. In recent years, there has also been an increasing use of stress echocardiography in the assessment of non ...

Periostin‐CCL3 Feedforward Signaling Loop Promotes Cardiac Fibrosis and Cardiomyocyte Necroptosis in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
POSTN‐CCL3 signaling forms a feed‐forward circuit between cardiomyocytes and cardiac myofibroblasts in arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy. POSTN activates JNK/RIP3‐dependent necroptotic signaling and JNK/ETS2‐induced CCL3 expression in cardiomyocytes. In turn, CCL3‐CCR5 signaling in cardiac myofibroblasts activates NF‐κB/p65 and promotes POSTN expression ...

Factors associated with cardiovascular events after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant from the US Multicenter Simultaneous Liver–Kidney Transplant Consortium

Hepatology Communications, EarlyView., 2022
Abstract Cardiovascular disease is a leading complication after both liver and kidney transplantation. Factors associated with and rates of cardiovascular events (CVEs) after simultaneous liver–kidney transplant (SLKT) are unknown. This was a retrospective cohort study of adult SLKT recipients between 2002 and 2017 at six centers in six United Network ...

Stress echocardiography in the district hospital setting: a cost-saving analysis

, 2010
Aims: Accurate and cost-effective techniques are required for investigating patients experiencing chest pain, given the significant workload this patient cohort represents. We determined the cost impact of stress echocardiography compared with myocardial

An Extracellular Pore‑Targeting Peptide Defines a Designable Allosteric Site in TRPV2

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Structure‐guided peptide engineering yields Depiv2, a highly potent and subtype‐selective TRPV2 inhibitor that binds to the extracellular pore and remodels it into a closed, non‐conductive state. Depiv2 suppresses pathological cardiac hypertrophy, establishing the TRPV2 outer pore as a designable interface for selective peptide modulation.

A Hepatocyte‐to‐Stellate Cell Axis Couples Alternate‐Day Fasting to Liver Fibrosis Resolution via ATG7 S‐Nitrosylation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Alternate‐day fasting suppresses mitochondrial complex II assembly via SDHAF4 to upregulate hepatocyte eNOS. The resulting nitric oxide S‐nitrosylates ATG7 at C184 in hepatic stellate cells, restraining autophagic flux and preventing their profibrotic activation.
