Recent studies have identified that N-methyladenosine (mA) extensively participates in the myocardial injury pathophysiological process. However, the role of mA on sepsis-induced myocardial injury is still unclear. Here, we investigated the functions and mechanism of mA methyltransferase METTL3 for septic myocardial injury. Results illustrated that the mA modification level and METTL3 up-regulated in the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced cardiomyocytes (H9C2 cells). Methylated RNA immunoprecipitation sequencing (MeRIP-Seq) revealed the mA profile of the septic myocardial injury cellular model. Functionally, METTL3 knockdown repressed the inflammatory damage of cardiomyocytes induced by LPS. Mechanistically, we found that HDAC4 had remarkable mA modification sites on its 3'-UTR genome, acting as the downstream target of METTL3. Besides, mA reader IGF2BP1 recognized the mA modification sites on HDAC4 mRNA and enhanced its RNA stability. In conclusion, the findings illustrated a role of METTL3/IGF2BP1/mA/HDAC4 axis on sepsis-induced myocardial injury, which might provide novel therapeutic strategy for septic myocardial injury.

Beating-heart CABG in patients with LV dysfunction can provide the best of all words by limiting myocardial injury purported by cardioplegic arrest. Complete revascularization is possible and graft numbers are not different when compared to arrested heart CABG. Furthermore, beating-heart CABG more often reduces the need for intraoperative and postoperative mechanical support reducing the complications and costs associated with these devices.

Mitochondrial dysfunction and ferroptosis play crucial roles in myocardial ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) following heart transplantation. Microsomal glutathione s transferase 1 (MGST1) is widely distributed in mitochondria and has a protective effect against ferroptosis, and its involvement in myocardial I/R injury has not yet been elucidated. In this study, donor hearts from C57BL/6 male mice were subjected to 12 h of ex-vivo cold ischemia treatment and transplanted into the abdomen of recipient mice for 24 h of reperfusion.

Purpose: Targeting mitochondrial ferroptosis presents a promising strategy for mitigating myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of the mitochondrial-targeted ferroptosis inhibitor SS-31@Fer-1 (elamipretide@ferrostatin1) in reducing myocardial I/R injury.
Methods: SS-31@Fer-1 was synthesized and applied to H9C2 cells subjected to hypoxia/reoxygenation (H/R) to assess its protective effects.

Background: Cardiac myosin binding protein C (cMyC) is an emerging new biomarker of myocardial injury rising earlier and cleared faster than cardiac troponins. It has discriminatory power similar to high-sensitive troponins in diagnosing myocardial infarction in patients presenting with chest pain. It is also associated with outcome in patients with acute heart failure.
