Long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) is widely reported to be involved in cardiac (patho)
physiology. Acute myocardial infarction, in which cardiomyocyte apoptosis plays an …

It has been well established that high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-TnT) is a specific and
highly sensitive marker in acute coronary syndromes. On the other hand, studies on serum …

Chloride (Cl-) channels participate in the regulation of cardiac function in response to stress
although the underlying regulatory mechanism remains poorly understood. This study was …

Background: nocturnal sustained hypoxia during sleeping time has been reported in severe
obesity, but no information regarding the cardiac molecular mechanism in the coexistence of …

Introduction and objectives Extracellular matrix turnover is a major determinant of cardiac
remodeling in heart failure. Sacubitril/valsartan decreases serum levels of procollagen type I …

Background and objective Periodontal pathogen Porphyromonas gingivalis (P. gingivalis)

Human heart failure is preceded by a process called cardiac remodeling, in which heart
chambers progressively enlarge and contractile function deteriorates. Programmed cell …

Porphyromonas gingivalis cause increased cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis …

Left ventricular (LV) remodeling constitutes the final common pathway for the progression of
systolic dysfunction to end-stage heart failure (HF)[1, 2]. The renin–angiotensin system …
