Primary dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a non-ischemic heart disease with impaired pumping function of the heart. In this study, we used human induced pluripotent stem cell-derived cardiomyocytes (iPSC-CMs) from a healthy volunteer and a primary DCM patient to investigate the impact of DCM on iPSC-CMs׳ responses to different types of anisotropic strain. A bioreactor system was established that generates...
Background. Lung injury in severe acute pancreatitis is mediated by infiltrating leukocytes. Our laboratory has previously demonstrated that acute lung injury in acute pancreatitis results in an up-regulation of vascular adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) cell surface receptor expression on pulmonary vascular endothelium and neutrophil sequestration. The objective of this study was to determine whether...
This project was designed to test the hypothesis that long-chain saturated fatty acids (myristate, palmitate, and stearate) are metabolized differently in human subjects, and that these differences may therefore account for the changes in plasma lipoprotein composition when these fatty acids are altered in the diet. Ethyl esters of each of the stable-isotope-labeled fatty acids ( 2 H 3...
