Targeting McOln1/TRPML1 Channels to Protect against Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury by Restoring the Inhibited Autophagic Flux in Cardiomyocytes | Researchers discovered that the MCOLN1-mediated inhibition of autophagy induced byischemia-reperfusion impaired mitochondrial function, which resulted in further detrimental reactive oxygen speciesrelease that directly contributed to cardiomyocyte death.

Stage-Specific Regulation of Signaling Pathways to Differentiate Pluripotent Stem Cells to Cardiomyocytes with Ventricular Lineage | Differentiation of embryonic bodies resulted in early fetal like non-contractile ventricular cardiomyocytes with an inherent propensity to contract when stimulated.

| AR Cooperates with SMAD4 to Maintain Skeletal Muscle Homeostasis | The authors found that the presence of an elongated polyQ tract impaired androgen receptor (AR) cooperativity with mothers against decapentaplegic homolog (SMAD4), leading to an inability to mount an effective anti-atrophy gene expression programme in skeletal muscle in response to denervation.

Peroxynitrous Acid-Modified Extracellular Matrix Alters Gene and Protein Expression in Human Coronary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells and Induces a Pro-inflammatory Phenotype | Scientists hypothesized that extracellular matrix modification by peroxynitrite/peroxynitrous acid might drive smooth muscle cells undergoing a phenotypic switch from quiescent/contractile to proliferative/synthetic, and thereby potentially contribute to atherogenesis.
