These authors won the #APSselect award in AJP-Heart and Circ for "Chronic testosterone deficiency increases late inward sodium current & promotes triggered activity in ventricular myocytes from aging male mice"👏 ow.ly/Vblt50PJl2n Manish Mishra Robert Rose, PhD, FHRS Susan Howlett



Congratulations to Dr @marijajelinic and the team at La Trobe University University for receiving a 2023 Vanguard Grant! Their project on understanding the cellular and molecular drivers of heart attacks is set to make significant contributions to cardiovascular research. 🌟

Review by Janssens et al. UniMelb MDHS characterizes the concept of cardiomyocyte stiffness and develops an interpretation of “stiffness” attributes at the cellular and molecular levels. ow.ly/C8gf50QUkZN #MyocardialStiffness


Thank you to @delbridgelea and Kim Mellor for our beautiful April cover image, of glycogen macromolecules captured by an enveloping autophagosome in the para-myofilament cell region.


In a new Clinical Outlook, Jonathan Kalman and Leonid Maizels discuss pulsed-field ablation, which is rapidly revolutionizing the field of ablation for atrial fibrillation: rdcu.be/dLW97


Signing off from #CSANZ2024! What a great conference sharing the amazing research taking place across Australasia and from our international guests. Already looking forward to the ISHR World congress in Nara 🇯🇵 2025 ISHR International ECI Committee

Johannes V. Janssens (UniMelb MDHS) et al. found that mechanical loading reveals an intrinsic #cardiomyocyte stiffness contribution to diastolic dysfunction in murine cardiometabolic disease 🫀 📜 Read it here: buff.ly/3VGYF3G


Our work provides evidence that Il-1b acts generate “positive feedback” in resident cardiac macrophages to increase atrial fibrillation susceptibility, and it depends on Caspase-1 activation. nature.com/articles/s4416… Stanley Nattel Prof. Dr. med. Dobromir Dobrev Ana M Gómez Matthias Nahrendorf
