Stigmasterol accumulation causes cardiac injury and promotes mortality

CAUSES OF MORTALITY IN CARDIAC SURGERY REOPERATIONS

From March 1990 to May 1993,309 patients underwent redo cardiac surgery operation at the Shahid Rajai Heart Hospital in Tehran. Early mortality rates in these patients showed a significant increase in comparison to patients undergoing open heart surgery for the first time. Late mortality (at least one month after surgery) in the patients was slightly increased also but less than early morta...

Acute Catecholamine Exposure Causes Reversible Myocyte Injury Without Cardiac Regeneration.

RATIONALE Catecholamines increase cardiac contractility, but exposure to high concentrations or prolonged exposures can cause cardiac injury. A recent study demonstrated that a single subcutaneous injection of isoproterenol (ISO; 200 mg/kg) in mice causes acute myocyte death (8%-10%) with complete cardiac repair within a month. Cardiac regeneration was via endogenous cKit(+) cardiac stem cell-m...
