Restrictive loss of plakoglobin in cardiomyocytes leads to arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy.
Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) is an inheritable myocardial disorder associated with fibrofatty replacement of myocardium and ventricular arrhythmia. A subset of ARVC is categorized as Naxos disease, which is characterized by ARVC and a cutaneous disorder. A homozygous loss-of-function mutation of the Plakoglobin (Jup) gene, which encodes a major component of the desmoso...
متن کاملTargeted deletion of Dicer in the heart leads to dilated cardiomyopathy and heart failure.
Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of human morbidity and mortality. Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is the most common form of cardiomyopathy associated with heart failure. Here, we report that cardiac-specific knockout of Dicer, a gene encoding a RNase III endonuclease essential for microRNA (miRNA) processing, leads to rapidly progressive DCM, heart failure, and postnatal lethality. Di...
متن کاملThe splitting design that leads to simple random sampling
Implementing unequal probability sampling, without replacement, is very complex and several methods have been suggested for its performance, including : Midseno design and systematic design. One of the methods that have been introduced by Devil and Tille (1998) is the splitting design that leads to simple random sampling .in this paper by completely explaining the design, with an example, we ha...
متن کاملPerhexiline: lessons for heart failure therapeutics.
SEE PAGE 202 I n heart failure with reduced ejection fraction, mechanical work produced by the left ventricle to support the systemic circulation decreases over time despite relatively constant myocardial oxygen consumption. The resulting decrease in the ratio of mechanical work to oxygen consumed, or mechanical efficiency, is a cardinal feature of heart failure (1). Extensive research in exper...
متن کاملDevelopment of Therapeutics for Heart Failure
One of the most feared complications in medicine is sudden death caused by drug-induced proarrhythmia. Accordingly, concerted efforts have been made to define a drug’s proarrhythmic potential before regulatory approval. Monitoring for QT prolongation is one such method. Patients with heart failure represent a particularly high-risk population for torsade de pointes because of structural and ele...
