| Scientists deleted Hdac3 in the developing murine epicardium, and mutant hearts showed ventricular myocardial wall hypoplasia with reduction of epicardium-derived cells. [Circulation Research] |

|
|
| Researchers demonstrated that the activation of the growth hormone-releasing hormone receptor signaling pathway within the myocardium both prevented and reversed diastolic dysfunction and pathophysiologic features consistent with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). [Cardiovascular Research] |
|
|
|
| Investigators evaluated the potential of 4 epigenetic drugs, including the recently developed histone deacetylase 6 inhibitor JS28, to prevent endothelin‐1 induced pathological gene expression in cardiac myocytes and analyzed the chromatin binding profile of the respective inhibitor targets. [Journal of the American Heart Association] |
|
|
|
| Scientists investigated whether SSEA4+CD34– cells constituted immature cycling cardiomyocytes in the adult failing and non-failing human heart. [PLoS One] |
| |
|
|
| Single-cell RNA-sequencing of regenerating Mus musculus skeletal muscle revealed that RNA-binding protein (RBP) expression, including the expression of many neuromuscular disease-associated RBPs, was temporally regulated in skeletal muscle stem cells and correlated with specific stages of myogenic differentiation. [Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine] |
|
|
|
| Data revealed cross talk between dystrophin and FAs, as the expression of wild-type or I232M dystrophin increased focal adhesions tension compared to dystrophin-less nontransgenic myoblasts. [Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America] |
|
|
|
| The authors showed that the CLOCK-interacting protein circadian (CIPC) a negative-feedback regulator of the circadian clock, was up-regulated during myoblast differentiation. [Cell Reports] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated the effects of lysyl oxidase-like 2 inhibitor on D-galactose-induced skeletal muscle fibroblast cells and mice. [Aging Cell] |
| |
|
|
| Scientists investigated the mechanism of methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) in atherosclerosis plaques via modulating the phenotypic transformation of vascular smooth muscle cells. [Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy] |
|
|
|
| The role of mitofusin 2 in the physical and functional couplings between sarcoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria was examined in rat aortic smooth muscle cells by confocal and electron microscope imaging. [American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology] |
|
|
|
| Investigators explored the potential of tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs) in human aortic smooth muscle cell proliferation. High-throughput sequencing was performed to analyze the tsRNA expression profile of proliferative and quiescent HASMCs. [Cellular & Molecular Biology Letters] |
|
|
|
| Scientists determined the role of Yes-associated protein (YAP) in abdominal aortic aneurysm formation and the underlying mechanism. [Journal of Cardiovascular Translational Research] |
|
|
|
| The authors investigated the spatial and molecular compositional associations of renal Schwann cells (SC) supporting the nerve terminals in male rats. [Journal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry] |
| |
|
|
|
| Scientists discuss different mechanisms involving both cardiomyocytes and non-myocyte alterations for the transition of cardiac hypertrophy to heart failure as well as for the progression of heart failure. [Canadian Journal of Physiology and Pharmacology] |
|
|
|
| The authors review advances in understanding of sepsis‑induced cardiomyocyte death pathways, including apoptosis, necroptosis, mitochondria‑mediated necrosis, pyroptosis, ferroptosis and autophagy. [Molecular Medicine Reports] |
|

|
| The National Cancer Institute, part of the National Institutes of Health, announced that four international research teams had been selected to receive a total of $100 million as part of the Cancer Grand Challenges program. [Forbes] |
