The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2), which mediates intracellular Ca2+ release to trigger cardiomyocyte contraction, participates in development of acquired and inherited arrhythmogenic cardiac disease. This study was undertaken to characterize the network of inter- and intra-subunit interactions regulating the activity of the RyR2 homotetramer. ...

In long QT syndrome (LQTS) patients, modifier genes modulate the arrhythmic risk associated with a disease-causing mutation. Their recognition can improve risk stratification and clinical management, but their discovery represents a challenge. We tested whether a cellular-driven approach could help to identify new modifier genes and especially thei...

B cell functions in the process of atherogenesis have been investigated but several aspects remain to be clarified. In this study, we show that follicular regulatory helper T cells (TFR) control regulatory B cell (BREG) populations in Apoe-/- mice models on a high-cholesterol diet (HCD). Feeding mice with HCD resulted in up-regulation of TFR and BR...

Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is an aggressive form of malignant tumor that originates in the pleural mesothelioma and presents as a local disease in the affected hemithorax. Small intestine metastasis is a rare complication. Herein, the case of a patient with jejunal intussusception caused by small intestine metastasis of MPM has been repor...

Human influenza A virus (hIAV) infection is associated with important cardiovascular complications, although cardiac infection pathophysiology is poorly understood. We aimed to study the ability of hIAV of different pathogenicity to infect the mouse heart, and establish the relationship between the infective capacity and the associated in vivo, cel...

Vascular calcification is a recognized predictor of cardiovascular risk in the diabetic patient, with DNA damage and accelerated senescence linked to oxidative stress-associated pathological calcification. Having previously shown that systemic SIRT1 is reduced in diabetes, the aim was to establish whether SIRT1 is protective against a DNA damage-in...

Background Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air pollution has been linked to increased risk of mortality, especially cardiopulmonary and lung cancer mortality. It is unknown if cancer patients and survivors are especially vulnerable to PM2.5 air pollution exposure. This study evaluates PM2.5 exposure and risk for cancer and cardiopulmona...
