We observed nonenzymic peaks when serum isoenzymes of lactate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.27; LD) and creatine kinase (EC 2.7.3.2.; CK) were separated by "high-performance" liquid chromatography and detected by continuously monitoring the column effluent for enzyme activity. Such background peaks were particularly apparent in CK isoenzyme profiles obtained from human sera. We observed two nonenzymic peaks with fluorescence detection, one in the CK-MB region, the other in the CK-BB region. Serum albumin was a major component in the artifactual CK-MB peak, with lipoprotein as a minor component. We present evidence that the material responsible for the other peak fluoresced quite strongly and is mostly pre-albumin.

Dichloroacetate: A metabolic game-changer in alleviating macrophage inflammation and enhancing recovery after myocardial infarction.
Cell Signal
January 2025
Department of Cardiovascular Surgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China; Future Medical laboratory, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University, Harbin, Heilongjiang, China. Electronic address:
Background: Dichloroacetate (DCA) has shown potential in modulating cellular metabolism and inflammation, particularly in cardiac conditions. This study investigates DCA's protective effects in a mouse model of myocardial infarction (MI), focusing on its ability to enhance cardiac function, reduce inflammation, and shift macrophage polarization from the pro-inflammatory M1 to the anti-inflammatory M2 phenotype.
Methods: An acute MI model was created using left anterior descending coronary artery ligation.
Efficacy and compatibility mechanism of bear bile powder in Shexiang Tongxin dropping pills for acute myocardial infarction treatment.

January 2025
Pharmaceutical Informatics Institute, College of Pharmaceutical Sciences, Zhejiang University, Hangzhou, 310058, China.
Background: Bear bile powder (BBP), a unique animal-derived medicine with anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects, is used in Shexiang Tongxin dropping pills (STDP), which is applied to treat cardiovascular diseases, including acute myocardial infarction (AMI). The efficacy and compatibility mechanisms of action of BBP in STDP against cardiovascular diseases remain unclear. This study aimed to investigate the compatibility effects of BBP in STDP in rats with AMI.

Objectives: The study aimed to examine the effects of exercise-induced muscle damage on running kinetics.
Design: Twenty-six adult recreational male runners performed 60 min of downhill running (-10 %) at 65 % of maximal heart rate. Running gait changes, systemic and localized muscle damage markers were assessed pre - and post-exercise induced muscle damage protocol.
Inhibition of p70 Ribosomal S6K1 Protects the Myocardium against Ischemia/Reperfusion-Induced Necrosis through Downregulation of RIP3.
Front Biosci (Landmark Ed)
January 2025
Department of Cardiology, Affiliated Hospital of Jiangnan University, 214122 Wuxi, Jiangsu, China.
Background: Myocardial ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury refers to cell damage that occurs as a consequence of the restoration of blood circulation following reperfusion therapy for cardiovascular diseases, and it is a primary cause of myocardial infarction. The search for nove therapeutic targets in the context of I/R injury is currently a highly active area of research. p70 ribosomal S6 kinase (S6K1) plays an important role in I/R induced necrosis, although the specific mechanisms remain unclear.

Background/objectives: Differential diagnosis of sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains challenging, particularly in cases lacking evident structural abnormalities. Cardiac markers have been proposed as useful tools for this differentiation in forensic contexts. However, key issues include the influence of postmortem interval (PMI) on marker stability and the limitations of traditional approaches that focus on pericardial fluid, which requires invasive sampling compared to peripheral blood.
