Background: Human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) and their derivative cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) have been successfully used to study the electrical phenotype of cardiac ion channel diseases. However, strategies to mature CMs and more comprehensive systems recapitulating the heart complexity are required to advance our ability to capture adult phenotypes.
Methods: We differentiated wild-type (WT) and long QT syndrome type 1 (LQT1) hiPSCs into CMs, endothelial cells and cardiac fibroblasts.

Peptidergic signaling regulates various physiological processes in insects. Neuropeptides are important messenger molecules that act as neurotransmitters, neuromodulators or hormones. Neuropeptides with myotropic properties in insects are known as FMRFamide-like peptides (FaLPs).

Background: Hypertension, one of the most common cardiovascular diseases that can cause coronary disease, stroke, myocardial infarction, and sudden death, it is the major contributor to cardiac failure as well as renal insufficiency.
Objectives: As there are many cardio-active pyridazinone-base derivatives in clinical use, therefore, we aimed to synthesize a new series of pyridazin-3-ones and evaluate their vasorelaxant activity.
Methods: A new series of synthesized compounds were carried out first by the synthesis of 6- flouroarylpyridazinones by cyclization of 3-(4-flourobenzoyl) propionic acid with hydrazine hydrate or arylhydrazines to provide the corresponding pyridazinone derivatives 2a-d.

The fish heart represents an established natural model for evaluating basic mechanisms of the coordinated physiological reactions which maintain cardiac steady-state. This is due to its relatively simple design, but also to its multilevel morpho-functional flexibility which allows adequate responses to a variety of intrinsic (body size and shape, swimming performance, etc.), and extrinsic (temperature, salinity, oxygen level, water chemistry, etc.
