Shared and Divergent Features of Cardiac Transcriptome and Glucose Metabolism Markers in Human and Mouse HFpEF

Kajol Thapa, Kleio‐Maria Verrou, Erjola Rapushi, Georgios Siokatas, Karthickeyan Chella Krishnan, Nikë Bharucha, Brendan J. Keating, Markus Meyer, Ioannis Karakikes, Konstantinos Drosatos

This study compares cardiac transcriptome and glucose metabolism markers in human and mouse HFpEF, finding greater conservation in right ventricles and sex-specific differences in left ventricles.

RNA polymerase loss by nuclear rupture drives LMNA cardiomyopathy

Atsuki En, Melanie E. Gucwa, Erjola Rapushi, Cara L Barnett, Wataru Katano, Nonso Nduka, Tatsuya Shiraki, Alyssa Grogan, Aloke Virmani Finn, K. Nicole Weaver, Kohta Ikegami

This study shows that nuclear rupture in LMNA-DCM leads to transcriptional deficiency and identifies resealing as a protective mechanism that is ultimately insufficient.
