Published in 2022 at "Basic Research in Cardiology"

DOI: 10.1007/s00395-022-00928-5

Abstract: Inflammatory cell infiltration is central to healing after acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The relation of regional inflammation to edema, infarct size (IS), microvascular obstruction (MVO), intramyocardial hemorrhage (IMH), and regional and global LV function is… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Biophysical Journal"

DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2016.11.578

Abstract: Hyperkalemia, acidosis, and anoxia are major pathophysiological conditions of myocardial ischemia. Cardiac arrhythmias induced by these conditions are widely investigated. However, the myocardium contractile function during acute ischemic perturbations is not fully explored. A fully… read more here.

Published in 2017 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-017-04067-z

Abstract: The present study was conducted to determine if TRPC6 regulates glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and the contractile function of glomerular mesangial cells (MCs). GFR was assessed in conscious TRPC6 wild type and knockout mice, and… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Transfusion"

DOI: 10.1111/trf.16530

Abstract: Although it is well established that transfusion of platelets in cases of severe bleeding reduces mortality, the availability of platelets is hampered by harsh restrictions on shelf life due to elevated risks of microbial contamination… read more here.

Published in 2023 at "Canadian Journal of Zoology"

DOI: 10.1139/cjz-2022-0180

Abstract: Feeding regimes are a critical process to ensure survival and reproduction, which modulate several behavioral and physiological patterns of ectotherms, especially cardiovascular adjustments. However, crocodilian myocardial contractile function after food intake remains understudied. We investigated… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "Journal of applied physiology"

DOI: 10.1152/japplphysiol.00075.2024

Abstract: Electrically evoked contractions are used to assess the relationship between frequency input and contractile output to characterize inherent muscle function, and these have been done mostly with isometric contractions (i.e., no joint rotation). The purpose… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Circulation. Heart Failure"

DOI: 10.1161/circheartfailure.121.009195

Abstract: Supplemental Digital Content is available in the text. Background: Current heart failure therapies unload the failing heart without targeting the underlying problem of reduced cardiac contractility. Traditional inotropes (ie, calcitropes) stimulate contractility via energetically costly… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "International journal of cardiology"

DOI: 10.2139/ssrn.4098889

Abstract: AIMS Myocardial contractility is poorly defined and difficult to compare between studies. Contractance or myocardial active strain energy (MASED) measures the mechanical work done per unit volume (with units of kJ/m3) of any cardiac tissue… read more here.
