NCLX, the mitochondrial Na/Ca transporter is a key player in Ca signaling. However, its role in Na signaling is poorly understood. In this review we focus on Na signaling by NCLX, and discuss recent physiological and pathophysiological roles attributed to the Na influx into mitochondria.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulators of gene expression and control cellular functions in physiological and pathophysiological states. miRNAs play important roles in disease, stress, and development, and are now being investigated for therapeutic approaches. Alternative processing of miRNAs during biogenesis results in the generation of miRNA isoforms (isomiRs) which further diversify miRNA gene regulation.

Cardiovascular complications claim the lives of up to 70% of patients with diabetes mellitus (DM). The mechanisms increasing cardiovascular risk in DM remain to be fully understood and successfully addressed. Nonetheless, there is increasing evidence in the scientific literature of the participation of platelets in the cardiovascular complications of DM.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is an emerging global health concern, and it is not only the keystone precursor of eventual liver-related morbidity, but it also places patients at considerably higher cardiovascular risk, which is still a leading cause of death in these patients. The most important common underlying pathophysiological mechanisms in these diseases are primarily related to insulin resistance, chronic inflammation and oxidative stress. The presence of MASLD with cardiovascular disease (CVD) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) elevates the risk for poor outcomes, thus this review highlights a method to the therapeutic approaches.

Frailty and severe aortic stenosis (AoS) are critical conditions in older adults, both of which share pathophysiological mechanisms including chronic inflammation and calcium metabolism dysregulation, potentially influencing the development and progression of these conditions. This study aimed to analyze systemic inflammation and calcium homeostasis biomarkers and their associations with frailty in older adults with severe AoS. : This prospective study included 191 patients aged ≥75 years with severe AoS who were candidates for aortic valve replacement and were evaluated at a Geriatrics Frailty Assessment and Intervention Clinic.
