New insights into cardiac aging.

All animals have limited life spans, and work in a variety of organisms has established that caloric restriction results in increased longevity. For example, inbred female mice fed an ad libitum diet had an average life span of 27 months, whereas calorie-restricted mice fed a diet with 65% fewer calories had an average life span of 45 months.1 The mechanisms by which caloric restriction retards...

Insights into role of microRNAs in cardiac development, cardiac diseases, and developing novel therapies

Objective(s): MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a subfamily of small noncoding RNAs that play a variety of roles in regulating gene expression in nearly all organisms. They affect different biological pathways by post-transcriptionally regulating mRNAs. Aside from miRNAs’  role in maintaining cellular homeostasis, their perturbation is related to several pathologic states and dis...

New insights into fragile X syndrome: from molecules to neurobehaviors.

Fragile X syndrome - a common form of inherited mental retardation - is caused by the loss of the fragile X mental retardation 1 protein (FMRP). FMRP is an RNA-binding protein which forms a messenger ribonucleoprotein (mRNP) complex that associates with translating polyribosomes. It has been proposed that FMRP is involved in synaptic plasticity through the regulation of mRNA transportation and ...

New Insights into Impaired Muscle Glycogen Synthesis

Perspectives G lucose is the most rapidly accessible substrate in the body. Its storage as glycogen in muscle and liver is of central importance as a first source of energy for muscle contractions and prevention against hypoglycemia. Glycogen synthesis and breakdown are regulated by insulin and catecholamines as well as by glucose-6-phosphate and the amount of glycogen. There are two isoforms o...
