Left superior cervical ganglia lymph node mimicry and its role in rat ventricular arrhythmias following myocardial infarction.
Acta Physiol (Oxf)
February 2025
Department of Cardiology, Cheeloo College of Medicine, Shandong Provincial Qianfoshan Hospital, Shandong University, Jinan, China.
Aim: Sympathetic overactivation may lead to severe ventricular arrhythmias (VAs) post-myocardial infarction (MI). The superior cervical ganglion (SCG) is an extracardiac sympathetic ganglion which regulates cardiac autonomic tone. We aimed to investigate the characteristics and functional significance of SCG on neuro-cardiac communication post-MI.

The mechanisms that determine distinct embryonic pallial identities remain elusive. The central role of Wnt signaling in directing dorsal telencephalic progenitors to the isocortex or hippocampus has been elucidated. Here, we show that timely inhibition of MAPK/ERK and BMP signaling in neuralized mouse embryonic stem cells (ESCs) specifies a cell identity characteristic of the allocortex.

Article Synopsis
- Amniotic fluid contains stem cells (AF-SCs) that have potential uses in regenerative medicine for treating various injuries and diseases.
- When exposed to basic Fibroblast Growth Factor (bFGF), AF-SCs show the ability to survive and migrate in a rat brain model, resembling characteristics of neuronal/glial progenitor cells.
- The study employs electrophysiological techniques to identify specific potassium currents in AF-SCs and confirms that histamine can influence calcium dynamics and potassium current activation in these cells.
Genetic Analysis of Retinal Cell Types in Neuropsychiatric Disorders.
JAMA Psychiatry
January 2025
Max Planck Institute of Psychiatry, Munich, Germany.
Importance: As an accessible part of the central nervous system, the retina provides a unique window to study pathophysiological mechanisms of brain disorders in humans. Imaging and electrophysiological studies have revealed retinal alterations across several neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders, but it remains largely unclear which specific cell types and biological mechanisms are involved.
Objective: To determine whether specific retinal cell types are affected by genomic risk for neuropsychiatric and neurological disorders and to explore the mechanisms through which genomic risk converges in these cell types.
Left Atrial Functional and Structural Characteristics in Patients After Total and Bicaval Orthotopic Heart Transplantation.
J Clin Med
December 2024
Institute of Heart Diseases, Wrocław Medical University, 50-556 Wrocław, Poland.
: Currently, the most popular techniques for orthotopic heart transplantation (OHTx) are bicaval and total OHTx. Although bicaval OHTx has shown advantages over the biatrial approach, comparisons between bicaval and total OHTx reain limited. To compare the functional and morphological characteristics of the left atrium (LA) in patients after bicaval and total OHTx.
