Researchers indicate that ischemic/hypoxic injury can induce marked vascular dysfunction, disorganization of mitochondrial cristae, mitochondrial dysfunction and release of mtDNA. 🧬 Signal Transduction and Targeted Therapy(STTT) | go.nature.com/3Hben2Z


Today in ATVB: An AHA Journal! Researchers show that afadin expression in VSMCs promotes cell contraction by interacting with PLCβ to enhance Ca2+ signaling. 🚦 👉 bit.ly/4kkNXud


🧪 Scientists demonstrate NEXN is highly expressed in VSMCs, and the expression of NEXN is significantly reduced during the phenotypic transformation of VSMCs and intimal #hyperplasia induced by #VascularInjury. JCI insight | bit.ly/4kBqep6




A research group from Sun Yat-sen University show a previously unrecognized role of NETs and CCDC25 in anthracycline #cardiotoxicity. They suggest that targeting CCDC25 could provide a dual therapeutic and cardioprotective advantage. 🫀 Nature Cancer | go.nature.com/3ZL41Nq






Dr. Natasha Chang's team at McGill University determined how dystrophin deficiency impacts the satellite cell transcriptome and cellular composition by comparing satellite cells from mdx and the more severe D2-mdx Duchenne muscular dystrophy mouse models. 🐁 go.nature.com/3HBCibZ





Dr. Helen Blau and team uncover that aged #MuscleStemCells have blunted prostaglandin E2 -EP4 receptor signaling, which causes precocious commitment and mitotic catastrophe. 💥 📚 Read more in Cell Stem Cell: bit.ly/3HG4WZx


In this Circulation Research study, scientists explored the role of pBIN1 in early-stage morphogenesis of transverse tubules in rat #cardiomyocytes. 📚 Read the paper here: bit.ly/449KmIz



Scientists led by Dr. Martin Bennett at VPD Heart & Lung Research Institute show that DNA damage and senescence induce genes associated with de-differentiated/fibromyocytic vascular smooth muscle cells, and persistence of these cells in vivo. 👉 bit.ly/44bVk05
