The effects of sodium–glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors on the ‘forgotten’ right ventricle

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 1045-1058, April 2025.
Abstract With the progress in diagnosis, treatment and imaging techniques, there is a growing recognition that impaired right ventricular (RV) function profoundly affects the prognosis of patients with heart failure (HF), irrespective of their left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF).

Tafazzin Deficiency Reduces Basal Insulin Secretion and Mitochondrial Function in Pancreatic Islets from Male Mice.

open access: yesEndocrinology, 2021
Tafazzin (TAZ) is a cardiolipin (CL) biosynthetic enzyme important for maintaining mitochondrial function. TAZ impacts both the species and content of CL in the inner mitochondrial membrane which are essential for normal cellular respiration.

Loss of PLA2G6 leads to elevated mitochondrial lipid peroxidation and mitochondrial dysfunction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
© 2015 The Author.The PLA2G6 gene encodes a group VIA calcium-independent phospholipase A2 beta enzyme that selectively hydrolyses glycerophospholipids to release free fatty acids. Mutations in PLA2G6 have been associated with disorders such as infantile

Clinical Utility of Nuchal Translucency Measurement in First‐Trimester Ultrasound Screening in a Setting With First‐Tier NIPT for Aneuploidy Screening

open access: yesPrenatal Diagnosis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To investigate the additional clinical value of nuchal translucency (NT) measurement at the first‐trimester anomaly scan (FTAS) in a setting with first‐tier non‐invasive prenatal testing (NIPT). Method This nationwide prospective cohort study, part of the IMITAS study on FTAS implementation, included all pregnancies with increased NT

Substantial Decrease in Plasmalogen in the Heart Associated with Tafazzin Deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemistry, 2018
Tafazzin is the mitochondrial enzyme that catalyzes transacylation between a phospholipid and a lysophospholipid in remodeling. Mutations in tafazzin cause Barth syndrome, a potentially life-threatening disease with the major symptom being cardiomyopathy.

Stimulating myocardial pyruvate dehydrogenase activity fails to alleviate cardiac abnormalities in a mouse model of human Barth syndrome

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Barth syndrome (BTHS) is a rare genetic disorder due to mutations in the TAFAZZIN gene, leading to impaired maturation of cardiolipin and thereby adversely affecting mitochondrial function and energy metabolism, often resulting in cardiomyopathy.

The lipid environment modulates cardiolipin and phospholipid constitution in wild type and tafazzin‐deficient cells

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2021
Deficiency of the transacylase tafazzin due to loss of function variants in the X‐chromosomal TAFAZZIN gene causes Barth syndrome (BTHS) with severe neonatal or infantile cardiomyopathy, neutropenia, myopathy, and short stature.

Developmental Sex Differences in the Metabolism of Cardiolipin in Mouse Cerebral Cortex Mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Cardiolipin (CL) is a mitochondrial-specific phospholipid. CL content and acyl chain composition are crucial for energy production. Given that estradiol induces CL synthesis in neurons, we aimed to assess CL metabolism in the cerebral cortex (CC) of male

Age‐Associated Dysregulation of Postsynaptic Mitochondria Perturbs Reinnervation Kinetics

open access: yesAging Cell, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
We show that aging results in postsynaptic mitochondrial loss at the neuromuscular junction and impaired muscle reinnervation. In vivo CRISPR knockout of mitochondrial genes, CHCHD10 and CHCHD2, in young muscles led to fragmented endplates, aberrant innervation, and impaired transcriptional maturation of sub‐synaptic myonuclei during regeneration ...

Tafazzin regulates the function of lipopolysaccharide activated B lymphocytes in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
AbstractB lymphocytes are responsible for humoral immunity and play a key role in the immune response. Optimal mitochondrial function is required to support B cell activity during activation. We examined how deficiency of tafazzin, a cardiolipin remodeling enzyme required for mitochondrial function, alters the metabolic activity of B cells and their ...
