Mitochondria is the hub of apoptosis in various diseases. The disruption of mitochondrial structure (including membrane rupture, cristae remodeling, and mitochondrial membrane lipid redistribution), the imbalance of mitochondrial dynamics (including fusion and fission, autophagy), the release, disruption, and mutation of mitochondria DNA, as well as ...

Neurological disorders (NDs) are characterized by substantial loss of specific neurons, with Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases being the most frequent NDs and nearly 99% of all “foreign substances” are prohibited from entering the brain by the blood‐brain barrier (BBB) and the blood‐cerebrospinal fluid barrier (CFB).

Abstract Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are a leading cause of neonatal morbidity and mortality. Accurate prenatal diagnosis of CHDs can reduce morbidity and mortality by improving prenatal care, facilitating predelivery pediatric cardiology consultation, and directing delivery to facilities with resources to manage the complex medical and surgical ...

Placental pathology in fetuses with and without congenital heart defects
Abstract Introduction Placental histopathologic evaluation of pregnancies affected by congenital heart defects (CHDs) can provide insight into the mechanism connecting placental and fetal vascular systems. The objective of this study was to evaluate the prevalence of maternal vascular malperfusion (MVM) and fetal vascular malperfusion (FVM) lesions of ...

Proteomic Remodeling in the Failing Left Ventricle Adapting to Dyssynchrony
ABSTRACT Purpose In heart failure, dyssynchrony is associated with accelerated cardiac remodeling and a worse prognosis. Both restored with resynchronization. We have previously developed a mouse model of dyssynchrony and resynchronization and here assess changes in protein expression within that model.

Methaemoglobinaemia: From pathophysiology to contemporary clinical management
Summary Methaemoglobin (MetHb) is an oxidised form of haemoglobin (Hb) unable to bind oxygen. Raised levels of MetHb reduce the blood's oxygen‐carrying capacity, causing potentially severe hypoxaemia and possible death. The condition arises from three main pathologies: mutations in globin genes causing Haemoglobin‐M, inherited deficiency of the enzyme ...

On the History of Hepatic Vein Catheterization
ABSTRACT Hepatic vein catheterization (HVC) in man was first performed 80 years ago in the wake of right‐sided heart catheterization. Several new methods, recognitions and concepts followed, especially the indirect Fick‐method for determination of splanchnic blood flow. Five years passed before pressure measurements were performed and routine HVCs were
