Left Atrial Strain for Assessment of Left Ventricular Diastolic Function Focus on Populations With Normal LVEF

Sherif F. Nagueh, Safi U. Khan

Summary: Left atrial strain, especially reservoir strain, has been suggested as a stand-alone measurement for assessing left ventricular diastolic function and estimating filling pressures. However, recent data indicate challenges in using this parameter in patients with normal ejection fraction due to wide normal value range and load dependency of left atrial strain. The accuracy of left atrial reservoir strain for estimating filling pressures is higher in patients with depressed ejection fraction compared to those with normal ejection fraction. Promising data show an association between left atrial reservoir strain and outcome events in patients with normal ejection fraction, but further studies are needed to confirm its incremental value over clinical and other echocardiographic measurements.

Shizhe Yu, Haoren Wang, Lingpeng Yang, Yingxue Yan, Qiang Cai, Duo Ma, Long Jiang, Zehai Gao, Zhiyong Yu, Zongping Xia

Summary: The comprehensive study of the spatial-cellular anatomy of the human liver is crucial for understanding the cellular origins of liver disease. In this study, spatial transcriptomics were conducted on normal human liver tissue sections, providing detailed transcriptional information on liver zonation. A total of 6581 high-quality spots from normal livers were analyzed, mainly consisting of hepatocytes, which were classified into four sub-groups. These data serve as a reliable reference for studying the spatial heterogeneity of liver lobules.

Effects of omecamtiv mecarbil on the contractile properties of skinned porcine left atrial and ventricular muscles

Tomohiro Nakanishi, Kotaro Oyama, Hiroyuki Tanaka, Fuyu Kobirumaki-Shimozawa, Shuya Ishii, Takako Terui, Shin'ichi Ishiwata, Norio Fukuda

Summary: The novel inotropic agent Omecamtiv mecarbil increases the sensitivity of cardiac muscle to calcium, leading to enhanced contractile properties. However, this effect is attenuated under the influence of fast skeletal troponin and strongly bound cross-bridges, suggesting a complex regulatory mechanism for its positive inotropic effects.

Dietary Copper Deficiency Leads to Changes in Gene Expression Indicating an Increased Demand for NADH in the Prefrontal Cortex of the Rat's Brain

Monika Cendrowska-Pinkosz, Marta Ostrowska-Lesko, Katarzyna Ognik, Magdalena Krauze, Jerzy Juskiewicz, Anna Dabrowska, Jaroslaw Szponar, Slawomir Mandziuk

Summary: Copper is necessary for brain cells and is involved in energy metabolism pathways. Deficiency in copper homeostasis may contribute to neurodegeneration. The regulation of copper in brain tissue remains unclear. This study examines the effects of replacing inorganic copper with copper nanoparticles or completely removing copper from the diet on gene expression related to energy metabolism in the rat prefrontal cortex. The results suggest that these changes in gene expression may be due to an increased demand for NADH in the rat brain's prefrontal cortex, possibly as an adaptation effect.

Haploinsufficiency of Tmem43 in cardiac myocytes activates the DNA damage response pathway leading to a late-onset senescence-associated pro-fibrotic cardiomyopathy

Leila Rouhi, Sirisha M. Cheedipudi, Suet Nee Chen, Siyang Fan, Raffaella Lombardi, Xiaofan Chen, Cristian Coarfa, Matthew J. Robertson, Priyatansh Gurha, Ali J. Marian

Summary: The study identified that TMEM43 haploinsufficiency leads to activation of the DDR and TP53 pathways, resulting in increased expression of SASP and an age-dependent pro-fibrotic cardiomyopathy. The shared mechanism in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathies caused by mutations involving nuclear envelope proteins may involve DNA damage response.

Mitochondria and chronic effects of cancer therapeutics: The clinical implications

Abishai Dominic, Dale Hamilton, Jun-ichi Abe

Summary: Chemotherapy and radiation induce cellular senescence, playing crucial roles in age-related pathology. A new concept highlights the re-entry into cell cycles, rapid proliferation, and acquisition of stemness status by subsets of senescent cells induced by chemotherapy. Treatments trigger toxicity effects through damaging mitochondria, upregulating mtROS production and leading to DNA damage responses.

Dynamic Tumor-Specific MHC-II Immuno-PET Predicts the Efficacy of Checkpoint Inhibitor Immunotherapy in Melanoma

Zhen Yang, Feng Li, Yuqian Huang, Na Yin, Junjun Chu, Ying Ma, Roderic I. Pettigrew, Dale J. Hamilton, Diego R. Martin, Zheng Li

Summary: Immunotherapy can benefit only a small number of patients, making the development of immuno-PET imaging crucial for predicting tumor response to immunotherapy. This study investigated the potential of tsMHC-II protein expression and its changes during interferon gamma (IFN gamma) treatment as a target for immuno-PET to predict response to immunotherapy. The results showed that tsMHC-II immuno-PET can effectively stratify tumor immunotherapy responders from nonresponders, and monitoring tsMHC-II sensitivity to IFN gamma stimulation may provide an effective strategy for predicting tumor response to immunotherapy.

Enhanced Succinate Oxidation with Mitochondrial Complex II Reactive Oxygen Species Generation in Human Prostate Cancer

Aijun Zhang, Anisha A. Gupte, Somik Chatterjee, Shumin Li, Alberto G. Ayala, Brian J. Miles, Dale J. Hamilton

Summary: The transformation of prostatic epithelial cells to prostate cancer is associated with metabolic changes and enhanced mitochondrial respiratory flux. Declining mitochondrial zinc concentrations are believed to be the molecular mechanism for this transformation. Indirect evidence based on pre-clinical models, cell lines, and tissue samples has supported the unique metabolic properties of prostate cancer cells, but direct respiratory analysis on fresh human tissue remains difficult.

Suppression of FOXP3 expression by the AP-1 family transcription factor BATF3 requires partnering with IRF4

Preston R. Arnold, Mou Wen, Lei Zhang, Yuanlin Ying, Xiang Xiao, Xiufeng Chu, Guangchuan Wang, Xiaolong Zhang, Zhuyun Mao, Aijun Zhang, Dale J. Hamilton, Wenhao Chen, Xian C. Li

Summary: This study investigated the mechanisms of IRF4 and BATF3, two transcription factors, in the conversion of CD4+ T cells to iTregs in vitro. The findings reveal that IRF4 must cooperate with BATF3 to repress FOXP3 expression and iTreg induction, and the interactions of these transcription factors antagonize glycolytic reprogramming of activated T cells, thus affecting the expression and stability of FOXP3.
