A summary of ISP mechanisms in inducing cardiac fibrosis. Abstract Cardiac injury initiates repair mechanisms and results in cardiac remodeling and fibrosis, which appears to be a leading cause of cardiovascular diseases. Cardiac fibrosis is characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix proteins, mainly collagen in the cardiac interstitium.

Trimetazidine effects on intracellular Са2+ ion concentration in HL-60 human promyelocytes
Aim. To investigate the effects of an anti-ischemic medication trimetazidine on Са2+ ion metabolism in human leukocyte and monocyte precursors – HL-60 promyelocytes.Material and methods. HL-60 cells were cultivated in vitro. Changes in intracellular free

The role of metabolic remodeling in macrophage polarization and its effect on skeletal muscle regeneration [PDF]
Macrophages are crucial for tissue homeostasis. Based on their activation, they might display classical/M1 or alternative/M2 phenotypes. M1 macrophages produce pro-inflammatory cytokines, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and nitric oxide (NO).

Background: Abnormalities in the extracellular matrix (ECM) have been shown to play a crucial role in promoting the formation, progression, and metastasis of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM). Therefore, our study is aimed at constructing a prognostic model based on ECM‐related factors, to predict the prognosis of patients with GBM.

Improvement in cardiac energetics by perhexiline in heart failure due to dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine whether short-term treatment with perhexiline improves cardiac energetics, left ventricular function, and symptoms of heart failure by altering cardiac substrate utilization.

Background: Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is characterized by diffuse renal cysts that secrete cytokines, which induce interstitial inflammation and fibrosis. Meanwhile, acute tubulointerstitial nephritis (ATIN) is characterized by inflammatory infiltrates in the interstitium, where kidney biopsy remains the mainstay for ...

Changes in expression and activity of the secretory pathway Ca2+ATPase 1 (SPCA1) in A7r5 vascular smooth muscle cells cultured at different glucose concentrations [PDF]
Diabetes mellitus-related vascular disease is often associated with both a dysregulation of Ca\(^{2+}\) homoeostasis and enhanced secretory activity in VSMCs (vascular smooth muscle cells).
