Background Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) improves outcomes in patients with ischemic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction, but accurate patient selection remains critical. Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging aids in assessing myocardial viability, a key predictor of surgical outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate the impact of myocardial viability on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing CABG.

Melatonin (MEL), functioning as a circulating hormone, is important for the regulation of ferroptosis in different health scenarios and acts as a crucial antioxidant in cardiovascular diseases. However, its specific function in ferroptosis related to myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury (MIRI) remains to be fully elucidated. In our research, we utilized a rat model of MIRI induced by coronary artery ligation, along with a cell model subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R).

We investigated the protective effect of the NF-κB inhibitor, pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate (PDTC) on cardiomyocyte injury induced by HCN1 channel overexpression, and explored the underlying mechanisms. An HCN1 overexpression vector was constructed and transfected into H9C2 cells, followed by PDTC treatment. The experiments comprised the following groups: control, control + PDTC, overexpression negative control, HCN1 overexpression (HCN1-OE), and combined HCN1-OE + PDTC groups.

Total glucosides of paeony (TGP) have been investigated for their effects on cardiomyocyte hypertrophy induced by angiotensin II (Ang II). In this study, rat cardiomyocyte H9c2 cells were treated with various doses of TGP (0, 12.5, 25, 50, 100, 200, and 400 μmol/L), and cell viability was assessed using the MTT method to determine an optimal dose.

Objectives: To investigate the mechanism through which N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) exacerbates hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) injury in rat cardiomyocytes (H9C2 cells).
Methods: H9C2 cells were cultured in hypoxia and glucose deprivation for 8 h followed by reoxygenation for different durations to determine the optimal reoxygenation time. Under the optimal H/R protocol, the cells were treated with 0, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, and 60 mmol/L Neu5Ac during reoxygenation to explore the optimal drug concentration.
