The aim of this study was to evaluate for the effects of forsythiaside A (FA) on myocardial injury in streptozotocin (STZ)-induced diabetes mice. Blood glucose (BG), serum triglycerides (TG), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), creatine kinase isoenzyme (CK-MB), cardiac troponin (cTnI), malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) levels were detected in STZ mice. The structure and function of heart was observed via cardiac ultrasound. Cytokine levels in mouse serum and heart were detected using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) as well as TG, LDH, CK-MB, cTnI, MDA and SOD in high glucose (Glu) induced H9c2 cells. Western blot detection of the expression of endoplasmic reticulum stress-related TXNIP/NLRP3 inflammasome pathways (GRP78, PERK, P-PERK, EIF-α, P-EIF-α, XBP1, ATF6, TXNIP and NLRP3) in SCD mice and LCG induced H9c2 cells. Endoplasmic reticulum stress activator tunicamycin (TM) was used to validate the above pathway for FA. It was also found that FA had protective effects on myocardial injury in STZ mice via restored heart function, improved cardiac pathological changes and suppressed inflammatory response as well as in Glu induced H9c2 cells. In conclusion, FA alleviated myocardial injury in diabetes via endoplasmic reticulum stress-NLRP3 inflammasome pathway.

Microgravity-induced cardiac remodeling and dysfunction present significant challenges to long-term spaceflight, highlighting the urgent need to elucidate the underlying molecular mechanisms and develop precise countermeasures. Previous studies have outlined the important role of miRNAs in cardiovascular disease progression, with miR-199a-3p playing a crucial role in myocardial injury repair and the maintenance of cardiac function. However, the specific role and expression pattern of miR-199a-3p in microgravity-induced cardiac remodeling remain unclear.

Purpose: Cardiomyocyte death is a major cytopathologic response in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) and involves complex inflammatory interactions. Although existing reports indicating that mixed lineage kinase domain-like protein (MLKL) is involved in macrophage necroptosis and inflammasome activation, the downstream mechanism of MLKL in necroptosis remain poorly characterized in AMI.
Methods: MLKL knockout mice (MLKL), RIPK3 knockout mice (RIPK3), and macrophage-specific MLKL conditional knockout mice (MLKL) were established.

To investigate how PD-L1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) affect the left ventricular function in mice with myocardial infarction (MI) and through what mechanisms they exert their effects. In vivo experiments were conducted using 27 female BALB/c mice, which were divided equally into 3 groups. Cardiac function was assessed by ultrasound.

Esmolol has been demonstrated to mitigate inflammation damage and T lymphocyte apoptosis in septic cardiomyopathy. It has been established that the activation of α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) by cluster of differentiation 4(CD4) T lymphocytes expressing choline acetyltransferase (ChAT) can prevent excessive inflammation and reduce splenocyte apoptosis in septic cardiomyopathy. Given the similar anti-inflammatory effects, we hypothesized that esmolol might be associated with α7 nAChR and thereby exert its cardioprotective functions.
