Exercise training benefits the heart. The knowledge of post-transcription regulation, especially RNA editing, in hearts remain rare. ADAR2 is an enzyme that edits adenosine to inosine nucleotides double-stranded RNA, and editing associated with many human diseases. We found was upregulated during exercise training. AAV9-mediated cardiac-specific overexpression attenuated acute myocardial infarction (AMI), MI remodeling, doxorubicin (DOX)-induced cardiotoxicity. In vitro, inhibited...

Abstract: A variety of nanoscale delivery systems have been shown to enhance the oral absorption poorly water-soluble and permeable drugs. However, performance these has seldom evaluated simultaneously. The aim this study was compare bioavailability enhancement effect lipid-based nanocarriers with poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles (NPs) highlight importance lipid composition, cyclosporine (CyA) as a model drug. CyA-loaded PLGA NPs, nanostructured carriers (NLCs),...

Abstract Aim Renal denervation ( RDN ) has beneficial effects on cardiac remodelling and function in resistant hypertension. We aimed to investigate the impact of angiogenesis during prolonged pressure overload. Methods Cardiac overload was reproduced by transverse aorta constriction TAC procedure adult Sprague Dawley male rats n = 35). /sham‐ performed surviving at 5 weeks after . Results Five post‐ , transthoracic echocardiography revealed that myocardial hypertrophy occurred rats, with...

Background Cardiovascular disease (CVD) poses a tremendous threat to global health, giving rise exceedingly high morbidity and mortality among patients. A migraine is common neurological disorder characterized by recurrent attacks of severe headache, while its cardiovascular burden remains unclear. Therefore, this study aims investigate whether associated with CVD. Methods The cross-sectional data 5,692 subjects aged 20 or above was obtained from the National Health Nutrition Examination...

Abstract The gut microbiota seems to be a major modulator of cardiovascular diseases, such as myocardial infarction. Dapagliflozin, sodium glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitor (SGLT2i), is an antidiabetic agent that was recently utilized in patients with diseases. This study aims investigate the effects dapagliflozin on faecal postinfarction non‐diabetic mice. A total 19 male mice were randomly divided into three groups, where two groups enduced infarction (MI) by left anterior descending...
