Engineered heart muscle allografts for heart repair in primates and humans.
Nature
January 2025
German Centre for Cardiovascular Research (DZHK), Partner Site Lower Saxony, Göttingen, Germany.
Cardiomyocytes can be implanted to remuscularize the failing heart. Challenges include sufficient cardiomyocyte retention for a sustainable therapeutic impact without intolerable side effects, such as arrhythmia and tumour growth. We investigated the hypothesis that epicardial engineered heart muscle (EHM) allografts from induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes and stromal cells structurally and functionally remuscularize the chronically failing heart without limiting side effects in rhesus macaques.

Purpose: The study aims to investigate the therapeutic effects of the aqueous extract of Atractylodes macrocephala Koidz. (AEA) on dexamethasone (Dex) -induced sarcopenia in mice and to explore its possible mechanisms of action.
Methods: This study utilized bioinformatics analysis to explore the primary pathogenic mechanisms of age-related sarcopenia and Dex-induced muscle atrophy.
Development and testing the psychometric properties of 20 bolt-on items for the EQ-5D-5L across 31 rare diseases.

Department of Cardiology and State Key Laboratory of Complex Severe and Rare Diseases, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences, Beijing, China.
Objective: Our objective was to develop and assess the psychometric properties of relevant bolt-on items for the EQ-5D-5L in patients with rare diseases (RDs).
Methods: Nineteen new EQ-5D-5L bolt-ons were developed based on literature review, expert input and qualitative interviews and focus groups with patients, caregivers and representatives of patient associations. A nationwide, cross-sectional, web-based survey in China included patients or caregivers of patients with 31 RDs in China (n=9,190).

Introduction: Breathing and postural control is reported to be both neuromuscularly and mechanically interdependent. To date, the effects of voluntary abdominal and thoracic breathing (VAB and VTB) on the EMG activity of muscles involved in both respiratory and postural functions, as well as gait biomechanics related to these breathing patterns, have not been investigated in young, healthy adults. The aim of the study was to evaluate the EMG responses of neck and trunk muscles, as well as the kinematic, stability, and kinetic parameters of gait induced by VAB and VTB compared to involuntary breathing (INB).
