|
| Scientists observed the translocation of selected mitochondrial tricarboxylic acid cycle dehydrogenases to the nucleus as an adaptive stress response to anthracycline-cardiotoxicity in human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and in vivo. [Nature Communications] |
|
|
|
| Human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes were transfected with adenoviral MG53, in which the expression of MG53 can be controlled by doxycycline, and the cells were then exposed to H2O2 to mimic ischemia/reperfusion injury. [Stem Cell Reviews and Reports] |
|
|
|
| Investigators screened various cardiotoxic drugs and bromodomain and extraterminal inhibitors for their effects on GDF15 regulation in human cardiomyocytes and cancer cell lines and analyzed in-house and public gene signature databases. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| | Western blotting and quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction approaches were adopted to analyze DJ-1 expression in skeletal muscle from aged humans or mice and compared with young subjects. [Journal Of Cachexia Sarcopenia And Muscle] |
|
|
|
| The authors attempted to determine in older adults if metformin monotherapy during bed rest could reduce muscle fibrosis and cellular senescence/senescent associated secretory phenotype during the re-ambulation period. [Aging Cell] |
|
|
|
| Researchers determined if the consumption of a high-fat high-sucrose (HFS) diet, starting in the post-weaning period, led to changes in skeletal muscle morphology and mechanics after 14 weeks on the HFS diet. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
| | Dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was performed to validate two competing endogenous RNA axes, hsa_circ_0001402/miR-183-5p/FKBP prolyl isomerase like and hsa_circ_0001402/miR-183-5p/beclin 1. [Journal of Advanced Research] |
|
|
|
| Investigators showed that circACTA2 was down-regulated in human intimal hyperplasia. circACTA2 overexpression in circACTA2 transgenic mice significantly decreased the neointimal hyperplasia induced by vascular injury. [Cellular and Molecular Life Sciences] |
|
|
|
| Non-dilated aortic samples were harvested intra-operatively from individuals with normal aortic valves or those with either predominant aortic stenosis or aortic regurgitation. [Journal Of Thoracic And Cardiovascular Surgery] |
|
|
|
| Using a pharmacological target network interaction analysis, 151 common targets and a protein–protein interaction network were identified containing the top 10 hub genes. [Scientific Reports] |
|
|
|
|
| The authors provide an overview of the unique features of skeletal muscle tissue, as well as its adaptability to exercise. [Biomedical Journal] |
|

|
|
| Researchers at Emory University will leverage the International Space Station National Laboratory to continue examining how microgravity affects the growth and function of cardiomyocytes as they mature into tissue-like structures. [ISS National Lab] |
