A woman with lactate dehydrogenase M-subunit deficiency underwent two cesarean sections because of the risk of dystocia due to decreased adenosine triphosphate production in anaerobic glycolysis including uterine muscles. Frequent pains with increased serum pyruvate levels were observed during the third trimester of her pregnancies.

Zn protects H9C2 cardiomyocytes by alleviating MAMs-associated apoptosis and calcium signaling dysregulation.

Purpose: This study aims to investigate whether zinc ion (Zn) alleviates myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) through the MAM-associated signaling pathway and to explore its impact on ERS and calcium overload.
Methods: H9C2 cells were cultured in a DMEM supplemented with 10 % fetal bovine serum and 1 % antibiotic solution. A MIRI model was established through simulated ischemia and reoxygenation with Zn treatment in a complete medium.

Background: Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is a critical enzyme widely used in clinical diagnostics. However, variations in measurement systems can lead to inconsistent results, potentially impacting clinical decision-making. This study aimed to evaluate the comparability of lactate dehydrogenase measurements by comparing routine methods with the IFCC reference method, and to analyze the standardization status of LDH testing through external quality assessment (EQA).

Due to the difference of estrogen levels in different phases of estrous cycle, it is necessary to exclude the influence of endogenous estrogen when studying the cardiovascular effects of estrogen and its analogues. In this study, the ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of isolated heart were investigated in female rats during different phases of estrous cycle with male rats as comparison. The results indicated that the estrogen content in blood of rats during metestrus and diestrus (MD) was lower than those during proestrus and estrous (PE).

The role of epigenetics and chromatin in the maintenance of postmitotic neuronal cell identities is not well understood. Here, we show that the histone methyltransferase Trithorax (Trx) is required in postmitotic memory neurons of the Drosophila mushroom body (MB) to enable their capacity for long-term memory (LTM), but not short-term memory (STM). Using MB-specific RNA-, ChIP-, and ATAC-sequencing, we find that Trx maintains homeostatic expression of several non-canonical MB-enriched transcripts, including the orphan nuclear receptor Hr51, and the metabolic enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (Ldh).
