Clinical epigenetics, Volume 15, Issue 1, 6 1 2023, Pages 111 Epigenome-wide methylation analysis of colorectal carcinoma, adenoma and normal tissue reveals novel biomarkers addressing unmet clinical needs. Janssens K, Neefs I, Ibrahim J, Schepers A, Pauwels P, Peeters M, Van Camp G, Op de Beeck K
Background: Biomarker discovery in colorectal cancer has mostly focused on methylation patterns in normal and colorectal tumor tissue, but adenomas remain understudied. Therefore, we performed the first epigenome-wide study to profile methylation of all three tissue types combined and to identify discriminatory biomarkers. Results: Public methylation array data (Illumina EPIC and 450K) were collected from a total of 1 892 colorectal samples. Pairwise differential methylation analyses between tis... Abstract

The American journal of cardiology, Volume 202, 5 1 2023, Pages 30-40 Prognostic Relevance of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain in Patients With Heart Failure and Reduced Ejection Fraction. Chimed S, Stassen J, Galloo X, Meucci MC, Knuuti J, Delgado V, van der Bijl P, Ajmone Marsan N, Bax JJ
Patients with heart failure (HF) and reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) are complex patients who often have a high prevalence of co-morbidities and risk factors. In the present study, we investigated the prognostic significance of left ventricular (LV) global longitudinal strain (GLS) along with important clinical and echocardiographic variables in patients with HFrEF. Patients who had a first echocardiographic diagnosis of LV systolic dysfunction, defined as LV ejection fraction ≤45%, were selec... Abstract

Background: The glomerular endothelial glycocalyx is degraded during inflammation. The glycocalyx plays a pivotal role in endothelial function and is involved in many processes including binding of chemokines and cytokines, leukocyte trafficking, and preventing proteinuria. HS-based therapeutics are a promising novel class of anti-inflammatory drugs to restore a compromised endothelial glycocalyx under inflammatory conditions. Recently, we demonstrated that treatment with HS extracted from unsti... Abstract

Bovine tuberculosis might be seen in low-income countries, especially in children fed with raw milk. The most common transmission route is fecal-oral way, and it is most likely through unpasteurized dairy products. Although clinical and radiological findings are like non-zoonotic tuberculosis, treatment approaches may differ in individuals with zoonotic tuberculosis. Prevention of zoonotic diseases requires multidisciplinary approaches. These approaches include the development of veterinary and... Abstract

Faletra FF, Agricola E, Flachskampf FA, Hahn R, Pepi M, Ajmone Marsan N, Wunderlich N, Elif Sade L, Donal E, Zamorano JL, Cosyns B, Vannan M, Edvardsen T, Berrebi A, Popescu BA, Lancellotti P, Lang R, Bäck M, Bertrand PB, Dweck M, Keenan N, Stankovic I
Three-dimensional transoesophageal echocardiography (3D TOE) has been rapidly developed in the last 15 years. Currently, 3D TOE is particularly useful as an additional imaging modality for the cardiac echocardiographers in the echo-lab, for cardiac interventionalists as a tool to guide complex catheter-based procedures cardiac, for surgeons to plan surgical strategies, and for cardiac anaesthesiologists and/or cardiologists, to assess intra-operative results.

A case of unilateral vascular hypoplasia is presented. A female patient was born with a complex aortic arch anatomy - a double aortic arch with an interrupted left arch. Surgical correction was performed at the age of 3 months. The patient was also noted to have had an ipsilateral large infantile haemangioma. These findings raised the suspicion of the diagnosis of PHACE syndrome. PHACE syndrome is an acronym for Posterior fossa abnormalities, Haemangioma, Arterial anomalies, Cardiac anomalies an...

Stem cell reports, Volume 18, Issue 7, 29 5 2023, Pages 1421-1435 Single-cell analysis of human fetal epicardium reveals its cellular composition and identifies CRIP1 as a modulator of EMT. Streef TJ, Groeneveld EJ, van Herwaarden T, Hjortnaes J, Goumans MJ, Smits AM
The epicardium plays an essential role in cardiogenesis by providing cardiac cell types and paracrine cues to the developing myocardium. The human adult epicardium is quiescent, but recapitulation of developmental features may contribute to adult cardiac repair. The cell fate of epicardial cells is proposed to be determined by the developmental persistence of specific subpopulations. Reports on this epicardial heterogeneity have been inconsistent, and data regarding the human developing epicardi... Abstract

Journal of the mechanical behavior of biomedical materials, Volume 144, 28 4 2023, Pages 105980 Cyclic strain has antifibrotic effects on the human cardiac fibroblast transcriptome in a human cardiac fibrosis-on-a-chip platform. Bracco Gartner TCL, Wang Y, Leiteris L, van Adrichem I, Marsman J, Goumans MJ, Bouten CVC, Sluijter JPG, den Toonder JMJ, Suyker WJL, Hjortnaes J
In cardiac fibrosis, in response to stress or injury, cardiac fibroblasts deposit excessive amounts of collagens which contribute to the development of heart failure. The biochemical stimuli in this process have been extensively studied, but the influence of cyclic deformation on the fibrogenic behavior of cardiac fibroblasts in the ever-beating heart is not fully understood. In fact, most investigated mechanotransduction pathways in cardiac fibroblasts seem to ultimately have profibrotic effect... Abstract
