3D Contractile and Remodeling Behaviors of Functionally Normal and Prolapsed Human Mitral Valve Interstitial CellsNARA Subscribed
Purpose Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) can lead to heart failure, arrhythmia, and death. Current treatments for MVP are strictly surgical, while alternative therapies remain elusive due to lack of knowledge of underlying processes. Importantly, our understanding of cellular mechanisms of post-MVP repair remodeling that can lead to secondary surgery remain limited. We therefore explored how MVP affects human mitral valve interstit...
In situ bioremediation (ISB) is a widely accepted method for eradicating petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) and chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons (CAHs) from contaminated aquifers. To achieve full removal of all toxic compounds that originated from microbial degradation, sequential anaerobic/aerobic bioremediation systems are recommended. While several works based on laboratory analyses targeting sequential bioremediation have bee...
Heart failure is a raising cause of mortality. Heart transplantation and ventricular assist device (VAD) support represent the only available lifelines for end stage disease. In the context of donor organ shortage, the future role of VAD as destination therapy is emerging. Yet, major drawbacks are connected to the long-term implantation of current devices. Poor VAD hemocompatibility exposes the patient to life-threatening even...
