Heart transplantation in 7 patients from a single family with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy caused by lamin A/C mutation.

Abstract:

:We describe 7 transplanted heart recipients from a single family with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy type 1B linked to a mutation of the LMNA gene in the splice donor site of the exon 9 (IVS 9+1:g>a). These patients did not display higher early postoperative or late complications than other heart transplant recipients at a mean follow-up of 8 years (range 1-17 years). Noticeably, there was no case of rhabdomyolysis and skeletal muscle symptoms were not markedly impaired.

  • Cross-talk between mineralocorticoid receptor/angiotensin II type 1 receptor and mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways underlies aldosterone-induced atrial fibrotic responses in HL-1 cardiomyocytes.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Aldosterone is increasingly recognized for its involvement in atrial structural remodeling. However, the precise molecular mechanisms and signal pathways underlying aldosterone-induced atrial fibrosis are unknown. METHODS:Western blotting was used to investigate the effects of aldosterone on the expression ...
