These compounds operate through various mechanisms, from enzyme inhibition to receptor modulation, targeting the complex systems that regulate heart function, blood pressure, glucose metabolism, and lipid processing. ...
The study of cardiovascular biology is essential for understanding the mechanisms that regulate heart function and vascular health. As cardiovascular diseases remain the leading cause of death worldwide, advancements in this field offer crucial insights for developing new treatments and preventive strategies. ...
Research indicates that they hold promise for repairing damaged tissues in conditions such as heart disease, osteoarthritis, and spinal cord injuries. Clinical trials have demonstrated the efficacy of hMSCs in promoting cartilage regeneration and improving heart function after myocardial infarction. ...
In the competitive world of sports, where pushing boundaries and achieving peak performance are the norms, one crucial element is often overlooked: heart health. The importance of regular electrocardiogram (ECG) monitoring, particularly using mobile ECG devices, cannot be emphasized enough. Here’s why integrating mobile ECG technology into your sports routine is essential for ...

By adding salt algae extract to healthy foods such as juices or dietary supplements, individuals can boost their immune system and promote overall health. Supporting Heart Health with Dunaliella Salina Dunaliella salina shows potential to reduce oxidative stress, inflammation, and lipid peroxidation, all of which are key factors associated with the development of ...
Researchers at Tel Aviv University's Laboratory of Precision NanoMedicine developed an LNP-based CRISPR-Cas9 mRNA delivery system for the treatment of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) caused by functional loss-of-function mutations in the dystrophin gene. The CRISPR-Cas9 system can be used to restore dystrophin protein expression and has a persistent effect, ...
Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is currently affecting over half of heart failure patients. ...
What is the difference between HFpEF and HFrEF? We classify heart failure based on which of these two functions is abnormal. In HFrEF, the left ventricle is too weak, rather than too stiff. ...
The combination of congenital heart disease (CHD) and respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) can present a difficult scenario to manage with conventional mechanical ventilation (CMV). Our patient presented with poor right ventricular (RV) function, and refractory respiratory failure on CMV. High-frequency jet ventilation (HFJV) was used in order to improve ...
The heart is a unique organ in many respects since its activity is mandatory to sustain life. The heart’s circulatory system and coronary flow regulation are highly adapted to the vital role of the heart in sustaining life and to everyday physiological challenges. Understanding coronary physiology is key for treating patients with ischemic heart disease in general, and ...
BIOLIFE4D is dedicated to achieving the patient-specific technology to bioengineer a viable, fully functional heart for transplantation which is safe, affordable, and accessible. ...
January 6, 2022—Researchers at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania published a research paper in Science titled: CAR-T cells produced in vivo to treat cardiac injury. Heart damage or inflammation can induce fibroblasts to overproduce fibrous material, causing cardiac fibrosis, which hardens the heart muscle and impairs ...
This has been associated with effects on the heart, lung and brain function. “Such studies are invaluable, but consistently remind us that designing out and preventing occupational exposures is easier, and likely to have a longer-term benefit for our health, than trying to monitor exposures and find cures for the illnesses that they cause,” comments ...
For those suffering from chronic conditions such as dementia, diabetes, heart and respiratory disease, the health impact during traumatic periods such as this is magnified. ...
The multicenter, nonrandomized, prospective study is assessing the system in patients with symptomatic heart failure and concomitant functional mitral regurgitation (FMR) who have stable symptoms on guideline-directed medical therapy. ...
Interim study results from systolic heart failure patients treated with percutaneous therapy designed to improve left ventricular function presented at TCT 2019 Santa Clara, ...
Scientists have found that endocannabinoids and cannabinoid receptors are involved in a wide array of bodily functions, including helping to control brain, nerve memory, pain, energy metabolism, heart function, the immune system and even reproduction. Because of their involvement in so many systems, they’re function is also ...
Sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), a life-threatening emergency that occurs when the heart suddenly stops beating, is a leading cause of death throughout the developed world. ...
