COVID-19 and persistent symptoms: implications for polycystic ovary syndrome and its management.

The COVID-19 pandemic has left a profound mark on global health, leading to substantial morbidity and mortality worldwide. Beyond the immediate symptoms of infection, the emergence of "long COVID", the long-term effects of SARS-CoV-2, has become a significant public health concern. Long COVID is a multifaceted condition affecting various organs and systems, including the cardiovascular, digestive, nervous, and endocrine systems.

Estradiol contributes to sex differences in resilience to sepsis-induced metabolic dysregulation and dysfunction in the heart via GPER-1-mediated PPARδ/NLRP3 signaling.

Background And Aim: Clinically, septic males tend to have higher mortality rates, but it is unclear if this is due to sex differences in cardiac dysfunction, possibly influenced by hormonal variations. Cardiac dysfunction significantly contributes to sepsis-related mortality, primarily influenced by metabolic imbalances. Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPARδ) is a key player in cardiac metabolism and its activation has been demonstrated to favor sepsis outcomes.

CD73/adenosine axis exerts cardioprotection against hypobaric hypoxia-induced metabolic shift and myocarditis in a sex-dependent manner.

Background: Clinical and experimental studies have shown that the myocardial inflammatory response during pathological events varies between males and females. However, the cellular and molecular mechanisms of these sex differences remain elusive. CD73/adenosine axis has been linked to anti-inflammatory responses, but its sex-specific cardioprotective role is unclear.

A novel model based on necroptosis to assess progression for polycystic ovary syndrome and identification of potential therapeutic drugs.

Background: Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), a common endocrine and reproductive disorder, lacks precise diagnostic strategies. Necroptosis was found to be crucial in reproductive and endocrine disorders, but its function in PCOS remains unclear. We aimed to identify differentially diagnostic genes for necroptosis (NDDGs), construct a diagnostic model to assess the progression of PCOS and explore the potential therapeutic drugs.

Estradiol mitigates stress-induced cardiac injury and inflammation by downregulating ADAM17 via the GPER-1/PI3K signaling pathway.

Stress-induced cardiovascular diseases characterized by inflammation are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in postmenopausal women worldwide. Estradiol (E2) is known to be cardioprotective via the modulation of inflammatory mediators during stress. But the mechanism is unclear.

Detection of cytological abnormalities in urothelial cells from individuals previously exposed or currently infected with Schistosoma haematobium.

Urinary schistosomiasis has long been associated with bladder cancer, but it is still not clear the mechanisms involved. Schistosoma haematobium causes injury and disruptions in the integrity of the urothelium. The cellular and immunologic responses to the infection lead to the formation of granulomata.

Occlusion preconditioned mice are resilient to hypobaric hypoxia-induced myocarditis and arrhythmias due to enhanced immunomodulation, metabolic homeostasis, and antioxidants defense.

Background: Sea-level residents experience altitude sickness when they hike or visit altitudes above ~2,500 m due to the hypobaric hypoxia (HH) conditions at such places. HH has been shown to drive cardiac inflammation in both ventricles by inducing maladaptive metabolic reprogramming of macrophages, which evokes aggravated proinflammatory responses, promoting myocarditis, fibrotic remodeling, arrhythmias, heart failure, and sudden deaths. The use of salidroside or altitude preconditioning (AP) before visiting high altitudes has been extensively shown to exert cardioprotective effects.

Metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 blockade attenuates pathological cardiac remodelling in pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is characterized by cardiac remodelling. Glutaminolysis plays a crucial role in PAH-induced remodelling. The metabotropic glutamate receptor 5 (mGluR5) may mediate this process.

Isoproterenol-Induced Cardiomyopathy Recovery Intervention: Amlexanox and Forskolin Enhances the Resolution of Catecholamine Stress-Induced Maladaptive Myocardial Remodeling.

The increasing incidence of stress-induced cardiomyopathy is due to the complexities of our modern-day lives, which constantly elicit stress responses. Herein, we aimed to explore the therapeutic potential of Amlexanox and Forskolin in promoting the recovery from stress-induced cardiomyopathy. Isoproterenol-induced cardiomyopathy (ICM) models were made, and the following treatment interventions were administered: 5% v/v DMSO as a placebo, Amlexanox (2.

Predominance of Heart Failure With Preserved Ejection Fraction in Postmenopausal Women: Intra- and Extra-Cardiomyocyte Maladaptive Alterations Scaffolded by Estrogen Deficiency.

Heart failure (HF) remains a public health concern as it is associated with high morbidity and death rates. In particular, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) represents the dominant (>50%) form of HF and mostly occurring among postmenopausal women. Hence, the initiation and progression of the left ventricular diastolic dysfunctions (LVDD) (a typically clinical manifestation of HFpEF) in postmenopausal women have been attributed to estrogen deficiency and the loss of its residue cardioprotective effects.

Amlexanox and Forskolin Prevents Isoproterenol-Induced Cardiomyopathy by Subduing Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy and Maladaptive Inflammatory Responses.

Chronic catecholamine stress (CCS) induces the occurrence of cardiomyopathy-pathological cardiac hypertrophy (PCH), which is characterized by left ventricular systolic dysfunction (LVSD). Recently, mounting evidence has implicated myocardial inflammation in the exacerbation of pathological cardiac remodeling. However, there are currently no well-defined treatment interventions or regimes targeted at both the attenuation of maladaptive myocardial hypertrophy and inflammation during CCS to prevent PCH.

The Synergy of ADAM17-Induced Myocardial Inflammation and Metabolic Lipids Dysregulation During Acute Stress: New Pathophysiologic Insights Into Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy.

Due to its reversible nature, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy (TTC) is considered an intriguing and fascinating cardiovascular disease characterized by a transient wall motion abnormality of the left ventricle, affecting more than one coronary artery territory, often in a circumferential apical distribution. Takotsubo cardiomyopathy was discovered by a Japanese cardiovascular expert and classified as acquired primary cardiomyopathy by the American Heart Association (AHA) in 1990 and 2006, respectively. Regardless of the extensive research efforts, its pathophysiology is still unclear; therefore, there are no well-established guidelines specifically for treating and managing TTC patients.

Glutaminolysis: A Driver of Vascular and Cardiac Remodeling in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a decimating ailment described by chronic precapillary pulmonary hypertension, an elevated mean pulmonary arterial pressure with a normal pulmonary capillary wedge pressure, and a raised pulmonary vascular resistance resulting in increased right ventricular afterload culminating in heart failure and death. Current PAH treatments regulate the vasodilatory/vasoconstrictory balance of pulmonary vessels. However, these treatment options are unable to stop the progression of, or reverse, an already established disease.

The cardiovascular aspect of COVID-19.

The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), an infectious disease caused by Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2(SARS-CoV-2), has hit the world very hard by affecting millions of people across countries hence posing a major health threat on a global scale. This novel virus is thought to enter and cause infection in its host through the attachment of its structural protein known as the S-glycoprotein to angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Given the rapid spread of COVID-19 with its consequences globally, it is mandatory that health caregivers and researchers across all disciplines abreast themselves with the potential effects that this novel virus may have on their fields and the medical society at large.
