Cardiomyocytes (CMs) lost during ischemic cardiac injury cannot be replaced due to their limited proliferative capacity. Calcium is an important signal transducer that regulates key cellular processes, but its role in regulating CM proliferation is incompletely understood. Here we show a robust pathway for new calcium signaling-based cardiac regenerative strategies.

Pyruvate Dehydrogenase Kinase1 (PDK1) belongs to the family of kinases, regulates diverse metabolic processes. PDK1 is a susceptibility locus for heart failure via thinning of ventricle walls, and enlarged atria and ventricles. We successfully developed a PDK1 knockout (PDK1/) human embryonic stem cell (hESC) line using an episomal vector-based CRISPR/Cas9 system explore the role of PDK in human heart development.

Background: The incorporation of anti-GD2 antibodies such as ch14.18/SP2/0 into the multimodal treatment of high-risk neuroblastoma (HR-NB) patients has improved their outcomes. As studies assessing the long-term outcomes, long-term sequelae, and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) of this treatment are limited, this retrospective analysis aimed to explore these.

Mammalian blood cells originate from specialized 'hemogenic' endothelial (HE) cells in major arteries. During the endothelial-to-hematopoietic transition (EHT), nascent hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) bud from the arterial endothelial wall and enter circulation, destined to colonize the fetal liver before ultimately migrating to the bone marrow. Mechanisms and processes that facilitate EHT and the release of nascent HSCs are incompletely understood, but may involve signaling from neighboring vascular endothelial cells, stromal support cells, circulating pre-formed hematopoietic cells, and/or systemic factors secreted by distal organs.

Myocardial infarction (MI) is a highly challenging and fatal disease, with diverse challenges arising at different stages of its progression. As such, non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which can broadly regulate cell fate, and stem cells with multi-differentiation potential are emerging as novel therapeutic approaches for treating MI across its various stages. NcRNAs, including microRNAs (miRNAs) and long non-coding RNAs (LncRNAs), can directly participate in regulating intracellular signaling pathways, influence cardiac angiogenesis, and promote the repair of infarcted myocardium.
