ESC heart failure, Volume 9, Issue 3, 30 5 2022, Pages 2007-2012 The first experience with sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor for the treatment of systemic right ventricular failure. Egorova AD, Nederend M, Tops LF, Vliegen HW, Jongbloed MRM, Kiès P
In congenitally corrected transposition of the great arteries, the morphological right ventricle supports the systemic circulation. This chronic exposure to pressure overload ultimately leads to systemic right ventricular (sRV) dysfunction and heart failure. Pharmacological options for the treatment of sRV failure are poorly defined and no solid recommendations are made in the most recent guidelines. Sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors are a new class of antihyperglycaemic drugs t... Abstract

Journal of visualized experiments : JoVE, Issue 181, 23 4 2022 Low-input Nucleus Isolation and Multiplexing with Barcoded Antibodies of Mouse Sympathetic Ganglia for Single-nucleus RNA Sequencing. Ge Y, van Roon L, Chen HS, Methorst R, Paton M, DeRuiter MC, Kielbasa SM, Jongbloed MRM
The cardiac autonomic nervous system is crucial in controlling cardiac function, such as heart rate and cardiac contractility, and is divided into sympathetic and parasympathetic branches. Normally, there is a balance between these two branches to maintain homeostasis. However, cardiac disease states such as myocardial infarction, heart failure, and hypertension can induce the remodeling of cells involved in cardiac innervation, which is associated with an adverse clinical outcome. Although ther... Abstract

Infection and immunity, Volume 90, Issue 5, 22 4 2022, Pages e0057921 A Resourceful Race: Bacterial Scavenging of Host Sulfur Metabolism during Colonization. Kies PJ, Hammer ND
Sulfur is a requirement for life. Therefore, both the host and colonizing bacteria must regulate sulfur metabolism in a coordinated fashion to meet cellular demands. The host environment is a rich source of organic and inorganic sulfur metabolites that are utilized in critical physiological processes such as redox homeostasis and cellular signaling. As such, modulating enzymes dedicated to sulfur metabolite biosynthesis plays a vital role in host fitness. This is exemplified from a molecular sta... Abstract

Molecular therapy. Nucleic acids, Volume 28, 19 3 2022, Pages 307-327 Extracellular vesicles enriched with an endothelial cell pro-survival microRNA affects skin tissue regeneration. Fernandes H, Zonnari A, Abreu R, Aday S, Barão M, Albino I, Lino M, Branco A, Seabra C, Barata T, Leal EC, Tralhão JG, Gonçalves L, de Jong A, Peters HAB, de Vries MR, da Costa Martins P, Quax PHA, Ferreira L
Endothelial cell (EC) activity is essential for tissue regeneration in several (patho)physiological contexts. However, our capacity to deliver in vivo biomolecules capable of controlling EC fate is relatively limited. Here, we screened a library of microRNA (miR) mimics and identified 25 miRs capable of enhancing the survival of ECs exposed to ischemia-mimicking conditions. In vitro, we showed that miR-425-5p, one of the hits, was able to enhance EC survival and migration. In vivo, using a mouse... Abstract

Cell metabolism, Volume 34, Issue 4, 18 3 2022, Pages 533-548.e12 Ejection of damaged mitochondria and their removal by macrophages ensure efficient thermogenesis in brown adipose tissue. Rosina M, Ceci V, Turchi R, Chuan L, Borcherding N, Sciarretta F, Sánchez-Díaz M, Tortolici F, Karlinsey K, Chiurchiù V, Fuoco C, Giwa R, Field RL, Audano M, Arena S, Palma A, Riccio F, Shamsi F, Renzone G, Verri M, Crescenzi A, Rizza S, Faienza F, Filomeni G, Kooijman S, Rufini S, de Vries AAF, Scaloni A, Mitro N, Tseng YH, Hidalgo A, Zhou B, Brestoff JR, Aquilano K, Lettieri-Barbato D
Recent findings have demonstrated that mitochondria can be transferred between cells to control metabolic homeostasis. Although the mitochondria of brown adipocytes comprise a large component of the cell volume and undergo reorganization to sustain thermogenesis, it remains unclear whether an intercellular mitochondrial transfer occurs in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and regulates adaptive thermogenesis. Herein, we demonstrated that thermogenically stressed brown adipocytes release extracellular v... Abstract

Lung cancer is the most common cancer type worldwide, with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) being the most common subtype. Non-disseminated NSCLC is mainly treated with surgical resection. The intraoperative detection of lung cancer can be challenging, since small and deeply located pulmonary nodules can be invisible under white light. Due to the increasing use of minimally invasive surgical techniques, tactile information is often reduced. Therefore, several intraoperative imaging techniques... Abstract
