Caveolin, a structural protein of caveolae, play roles in the regulation of endothelial function, cellular lipid homeostasis, and cardiac function by affecting the activity and biogenesis of nitric oxide, and by modulating signal transduction pathways that mediate inflammatory responses and oxidative stress. In this review, we present the role of caveolin in cardiac and vascular diseases and the relevant signaling pathways involved. Furthermore, we discuss a novel therapeutic perspective comprising crosstalk between caveolin and autophagy.

Importance: Patients with transthyretin (ATTR) cardiac amyloid infiltration are increasingly diagnosed at earlier disease stages with no heart failure (HF) symptoms and a wide range of cardiac amyloid infiltration.

Objective: To characterize the clinical phenotype and natural history of asymptomatic patients with ATTR cardiac amyloid infiltration.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This cohort study analyzed data of all patients at 12 international centers for amyloidosis from January 1, 2008, through December 31, 2023.

Capillary refill time paradoxically decreases in a blood loss shock model.

Intensive Care Med Exp

January 2025

Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, and Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Linköping University, 582 25, Linköping, Sweden.

Background: This study aimed to investigate whether changes in capillary refill (CR) time precede macrovascular signs of deterioration in a human model of blood loss shock. The study was conducted at the Department of Emergency Medicine in Linköping, Sweden, and involved 42 healthy volunteers aged 18-45. Participants were randomized into two provocations of applied lower body negative pressure (LBNP): a stepwise escalation protocol and a direct application protocol, to simulate gradual and acute blood loss.

Peptide Nanofibers and Skin Regeneration.

Adv Exp Med Biol

January 2025

Requalite GmbH, Gräfelfing, Germany.

Peptide nanofibers have been attractive targets for regenerative medicine applications due to their tailorability to be easily functionalized for specific bioactivity, biocompatibility, ease of synthesis, adjustability of their physicochemical characteristics, and lack of biological contamination. Research groups have investigated their use for the regeneration of various tissues, such as bone, cartilage, brain, peripheral nerves, cardiac tissue, vascular tissues, endocrine cells, muscles, etc., for the treatment of degenerative diseases or tissue loss due to accidents or aging.

Pregnancy is a vulnerable time with significant cardiovascular changes that can lead to adverse outcomes, which can extend into the postpartum window. Exposure to emissions from electronic cigarettes (Ecig), commonly known as "vaping," has an adverse impact on cardiovascular function during pregnancy and post-natal life of offspring, but the postpartum effects on maternal health are poorly understood. We used a Sprague Dawley rat model, where pregnant dams are exposed to Ecigs between gestational day (GD)2-GD21 to examine postpartum consequences.

Attenuated cardiac autonomic function in patients with long-COVID with impaired orthostatic hemodynamics.

Clin Auton Res

January 2025

Department of Cardiac Sciences, Libin Cardiovascular Institute, University of Calgary, GAC70 HRIC Building, 3280 Hospital Dr NW, Calgary, AB, T2N 4Z6, Canada.

Purpose: Long-coronavirus disease (long-COVID) is associated with initial orthostatic hypotension and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. Whether altered autonomic tone underlies these abnormalities is unknown. We compared autonomic function between patients with long-COVID and healthy controls, and within patients with long-COVID with different orthostatic hemodynamic phenotypes.
