The effectiveness of an aquaponic system significantly relies on the habitat provided for both the fish and plants. As an integral component of aquaponics, hydroponic cultivation benefits greatly from the controlled environment of a greenhouse. Within this environment, factors such as temperature, carbon dioxide levels, humidity, and light can be carefully adjusted to maximize plant growth and development.

Morbidity and mortality of myocardial infarction remains significant with resulting left ventricular function presenting as a major determinant of clinical outcome. Protecting the myocardium against ischemia reperfusion injury has become a major therapeutic goal and the identification of key signaling pathways has paved the way for various interventions, but until now with disappointing results. This article describes the recently discovered new role of G-protein-coupled receptor kinase-2 (GRK2), which is known to critically influence the development and progression of heart failure, in acute myocardial injury.
