Objectives : The PAREPET (Prediction of ARrhythmic Events with Positron Emission
Tomography) study sought to test the hypothesis that quantifying inhomogeneity in myocardial …

Myocardial infarction is a prevalent major cardiovascular event that arises from myocardial
ischemia with or without reperfusion, and basic and translational research is needed to better …

An American Heart Association Scientific Statement addressed the process of risk stratification
and incorporation of novel markers. 6 The Table summarizes the phases of evaluation of …

The inability to reproduce spontaneous ventricular fibrillation in an animal model of chronic
coronary artery disease has limited advances in understanding mechanisms of sudden …

Background—Although global ischemia induces troponin I (TnI) degradation, regional ischemia
does not. We hypothesized that this disparity is related to preload-induced proteolysis, …

The in vitro culture of porcine bone marrow‐derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was
used for the investigation of adult stem cell biology. Isolated porcine MSCs possessed the …

Mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-derived exosomes mediate tissue regeneration in a variety
of diseases including ischemic heart injury, liver fibrosis, and cerebrovascular disease. …

The major factors determining myocardial perfusion and oxygen delivery have been
elucidated over the past several decades, and this knowledge has been incorporated into the …

Although myocardial ischaemia usually manifests as a consequence of atherosclerosis-dependent
obstructive epicardial coronary artery disease, a significant percentage of patients …

Mitochondrial transport along microtubules is mediated by Miro1 and TRAK adaptors that
recruit kinesin-1 and dynein-dynactin. To understand how these opposing motors are …
