Background: Normothermic ex situ heart perfusion (ESHP) has emerged as a valid modality for advanced cardiac allograft preservation and conditioning prior to transplantation though myocardial function declines gradually during ESHP thus limiting its potential for expanding the donor pool. Recently, the utilization of dialysis has been shown to preserve myocardial and coronary vasomotor function. Herein, we sought to determine the changes in myocardial metabolism that could support this improvement.

Background: Diabetes mellitus is associated with morphological and functional impairment of the heart primarily due to lipid toxicity caused by increased fatty acid metabolism. Extracellular signal-regulated protein kinases 1 and 2 (ERK1/2) have been implicated in the metabolism of fatty acids in the liver and skeletal muscles. However, their role in the heart in diabetes remains unclear.

: Up until now, behavioral interventions and pharmacological therapies were the main approach available for the management of obesity. Diet and exercise, when used as a singular therapeutic method, are inadequate for a successful outcome. Research shows promising results for the surgical treatment of obesity, especially in the area of bariatric surgery (BaS).

Metabolic syndrome (MS) represents several diseases encompassing a heterogeneous group of biochemical and physiological abnormalities characterized by structural and functional alterations in the myocardium, including the endothelium of the coronary arteries. MS also affects a substantial portion of the global population. Understanding the risk factors, the development and treatment associated with MS are of paramount importance for early identification, treatment and prevention.

ACSL4 Regulates LPS-Induced Ferroptosis in Cardiomyocytes through FASN.

Objective: Myocardial injury is a prevalent complication of sepsis. This study aims to shed light on the role of Acyl-CoA Synthetase Long Chain Family Member 4 (ACSL4) in regulating Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) to identify the intrinsic molecular mechanisms of sepsis-induced myocardial injury.

Method: H9c2 cells were treated with Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to model sepsis-induced cardiomyocyte injury and were subsequently divided into seven groups: Control, LPS, LPS+sh-NC, LPS+sh-ACSL4, LPS+sh-ACSL4+Erastin, LPS+sh-ACSL4+oe-NC, and LPS+sh-ACSL4+oe-FASN.
