The American journal of cardiology, Volume 182, 6 1 2022, Pages 69-76 Impact of Left Ventricular Global Longitudinal Strain on Outcomes After Transcatheter Edge-to-Edge Repair in Secondary Mitral Regurgitation. Yoon SH, Makar M, Kar S, Koseki K, Oakley L, Sekhon N, Patel D, Chakravarty T, Nakamura M, Hamilton M, Patel JK, Singh S, Sabah S, Siegel RJ, Bax JJ, Makkar RR
Assessment of left ventricular (LV) systolic function is essential in patient selection for transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) in secondary mitral regurgitation (MR). Although LV ejection fraction (EF) is mostly used for assessing LV function, it represents the change of LV chamber size, but not myocardial contractility. LV global longitudinal strain (GLS) provides an alternative to assess LV systolic function in patients with secondary MR. This study included 380 patients with secondary M... Abstract

PloS one, Volume 17, Issue 9, 6 1 2022, Pages e0273182 Indisulam synergizes with palbociclib to induce senescence through inhibition of CDK2 kinase activity. Pogacar Z, Johnson JL, Krenning L, De Conti G, Jochems F, Lieftink C, Velds A, Wardak L, Groot K, Schepers A, Wang L, Song JY, van de Ven M, van Tellingen O, Medema RH, Beijersbergen RL, Bernards R, Leite de Oliveira R
Inducing senescence in cancer cells is emerging as a new therapeutic strategy. In order to find ways to enhance senescence induction by palbociclib, a CDK4/6 inhibitor approved for treatment of metastatic breast cancer, we performed functional genetic screens in palbociclib-resistant cells. Using this approach, we found that loss of CDK2 results in strong senescence induction in palbociclib-treated cells. Treatment with the CDK2 inhibitor indisulam, which phenocopies genetic CDK2 inactivation, l... Abstract

Genome biology, Volume 23, Issue 1, 1 1 2022, Pages 185 CTCF and cohesin promote focal detachment of DNA from the nuclear lamina. van Schaik T, Liu NQ, Manzo SG, Peric-Hupkes D, de Wit E, van Steensel B
Background: Lamina-associated domains (LADs) are large genomic regions that are positioned at the nuclear lamina. It has remained largely unclear what drives the positioning and demarcation of LADs. Because the insulator protein CTCF is enriched at LAD borders, it was postulated that CTCF binding could position some LAD boundaries, possibly through its function in stalling cohesin and hence preventing cohesin invading into the LAD. To test this, we mapped genome-nuclear lamina interactions in mo... Abstract

Sleep, Volume 45, Issue 9, 1 1 2022, Pages zsac139 Sleep spindle dynamics suggest over-consolidation in post-traumatic stress disorder. van der Heijden AC, Hofman WF, de Boer M, Nijdam MJ, van Marle HJF, Jongedijk RA, Olff M, Talamini LM
Devastating and persisting traumatic memories are a central symptom of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Sleep problems are highly co-occurrent with PTSD and intertwined with its etiology. Notably, sleep hosts memory consolidation processes, supported by sleep spindles (11-16 Hz). Here we assess the hypothesis that intrusive memory symptoms in PTSD may arise from excessive memory consolidation, reflected in exaggerated spindling. We use a newly developed spindle detection method, entailing... Abstract

European heart journal. Cardiovascular Imaging, Volume 23, Issue 10, 1 1 2022, Pages 1326-1335 Left ventricular remodelling patterns in patients with moderate aortic stenosis. Stassen J, Ewe SH, Hirasawa K, Butcher SC, Singh GK, Amanullah MR, Sin KYK, Ding ZP, Pio SM, Chew NWS, Sia CH, Kong WKF, Poh KK, Cohen DJ, Généreux P, Leon MB, Marsan NA, Delgado V, Bax JJ
Aims: Moderate aortic stenosis (AS) is associated with an increased risk of adverse events. Because outcomes in patients with AS are ultimately driven by the condition of the left ventricle (LV) and not by the valve, assessment of LV remodelling seems important for risk stratification. This study evaluated the association between different LV remodelling patterns and outcomes in patients with moderate AS. Methods and results: Patients with moderate AS (aortic valve area 1.0-1.5 cm2) were identif... Abstract
