|
| Loss- and gain-of-function approaches were used to investigate the role of mitofusin 2 (MFN2) in cardiac response to hypobaric hypoxia. [Acta Physiologica] |
|
|
|
| The effects of miR-494-3p on HL-1 contained in pirarubicin (THP) were investigated by CCK8, flow cytometry, ROS detection, JC-1 mitochondrial membrane potential detection, TUNEL cell apoptosis detection, RT-qPCR, and Western blot. [Environmental Toxicology] |
|
|
|
| A hypoxia/reoxygenation model with H9c2 cells closely simulating myocardia ischemia/reperfusion injury was used as a cellular model. Scientists investigated the effects and mechanism underlying neferine on H9c2 cells in response to ischemia/reperfusion stimulation. [Journal of Biochemical and Molecular Toxicology] |

|
|
| Results showed, in vitro, that mechanical stretch could induce oxidative damage to myoblasts and trigger ferroptosis. [Cell Death Discovery] |
|
|
|
| To understand the changes in gene expression that occur as a result of aging in skeletal muscles, researchers generated a multi-time-point gene expression signature throughout the lifespan of mice and rats. [Skeletal Muscle] |
|
|
|
| Scientists found that the compartments had different proportions of slow-fast muscle fibers, corresponding to the functional differences between the superior compartment as an early-onset internal rotator and the inferior compartment as a durable stabilizer of the glenohumeral joint. [Scientific Reports] |
| |
|
|
| The in vitro functions of lncRNA were analyzed by CCK-8 assays, EdU assays, scratch wound assays, Transwell assays, qRT-PCR analyses and Western blot analyses. RNA fluorescence in situ hybridization, immunoprecipitation, and mRNA microarrays were used to explore the underlying mechanism. [Atherosclerosis] |
|
|
|
| Researchers hypothesized that dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase-1 (DDAH1) knockdown in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells would result in lower nitric oxide (NO) production, decreased apoptosis, and greater proliferation of human pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells.

|
|
| Vascular nitric oxide (NO) resistance is a common state in type 2 diabetes (T2D) associated with developing cardiovascular events and death. The authors summarize experimental and human evidence of vascular NO resistance in T2D and discuss its underlying mechanisms. [Cell Death & Disease] |

|
| SOLVE FSHD announced that it has awarded grants totalling USD $1.4M to four new collaborative research projects that address critical gaps in FSHD therapeutics, biology and/or biomarkers. [SOLVE FSHD] |
