Myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury leads to irreversible cardiomyocyte death and aggravates myocardial infarction. Deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) are essential for maintaining substrate protein stability and functionality, playing significant roles in cardiac pathophysiology. In this study, we aimed to clarify the regulatory role of a DUB, Myb-like, SWIRM, and MPN domains 1 protein (MYSM1), in myocardial I/R injury and explore the molecular mechanism behind.

This study presents two on-orbit calibration techniques for optical payloads. Self-calibration of the orientation of the optical axis of an optical payload can be achieved through on-orbit observation and imaging of star points based on the pinhole imaging principle.

Percutaneous coronary intervention with stent implantation is often considered as the first-choice treatment, especially in emergency cases. Current guidelines recommend delayed elective noncardiac surgery for such vulnerable patients.

Background/aims: Amiodarone, a thyroid hormone-like molecule, can induce dyslipidemia and thyroid dysfunction. However, the effects of dronedarone on lipid metabolism and of both dronedarone and amiodarone on thyroid function and lipid metabolism remain unknown.
Methods: Fifty male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 5 groups (10 in each group): normal control (NC), amiodarone-treated (AMT), dronedarone-treated (DRT), rats treated with amiodarone combined with polyene phosphatidylcholine (AC), and rats treated with dronedarone combined with polyene phosphatidylcholine (DC).
