BACKGROUND The diseased human myocardium is highly susceptible to ischemia/reoxygenation (I/R)-induced injury but its response to protective interventions such as ischemic preconditioning (IPreC) is unclear. Cardiac and other pre-existing clinical conditions as well as previous or ongoing medical treatment may influence the myocardial response to I/R injury and protection. This study investigat...
We applied the pseudostrain energy function of Humphrey et al. [J. biomech. Engng 112, 333-346 (1990a, b)] to characterize the passive biaxial mechanical properties of the right ventricle free wall myocardium [Sacks and Chuong, J. biomech. Engng 115,202-205 (1993)]. The myocardium was assumed to be incompressible, pseudoelastic, and transversely isotropic, with transmural variations in fiber or...
FGF10/FGFR2b signaling is essential for cardiac fibroblast development and growth of the myocardium.
The epicardium serves as a source of growth factors that regulate myocardial proliferation and as a source of epicardial-derived cells (EPDC), which give rise to interstitial cardiac fibroblasts and perivascular cells. These progenitors populate the compact myocardium to become part of the mature coronary vasculature and fibrous skeleton of the heart. Little is known about the mechanisms that r...
The purpose of this study was to ultrasonically characterize infarcted human myocardial tissue at the microscopic level by scanning acoustic microscopy. Infarcted myocardial specimens from ten cases with acute myocardial infarction were studied. Specimens were formalin fixed, paraffin embedded and sectioned to 10-micron thickness. A specially developed scanning acoustic microscope system, opera...
Cardiac rehabilitation is believed to increase myocardial perfusion reserve (MPR), but this has not been adequately studied because of poor delineation of infarcted myocardium in previous studies. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of cardiac rehabilitation on MPR in the remote and infarcted myocardium with contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging; 39 postinfarction patie...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important roles in the occurrence and development in diabetic cardiomyopathy (DC). Ferulic acid is one of the ubiquitous compounds in diet. Sodium ferulate (SF) is its sodium salt. SF has potent free radical scavenging activity and can effectively scavenge ROS. The study investigated the effect of SF on cardioprotection in diabetic rats. The diabetic rats indu...
The identification of cardiac progenitor cells in mammals raises the possibility that the human heart contains a population of stem cells capable of generating cardiomyocytes and coronary vessels. The characterization of human cardiac stem cells (hCSCs) would have important clinical implications for the management of the failing heart. We have established the conditions for the isolation and ex...
Using a quantitative, computer-aided circumferential profile technique, we have shown that thallium-201 scintigrams with large defects can identify a group of patients with a high mortality after acute myocardial infarction. To determine whether high-risk thallium scintigrams predict poor survival because of a critical loss of myocardium, we correlated infarct size in 24 autopsied patients with...
