Efficacy of a Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone Agonist in a Murine Model of Cardiometabolic Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction

R. M. K. Takeuchi, L. M. Takeuchi, R. A. Dulce, K. Kazmierczak, W. Balkan, R. Cai, W. Sha, A. V. Schally, J. M. Hare

This study tests the efficacy of GHRH agonist MR-356 in a murine model of cardiometabolic HFpEF, showing improvements in cardiac function and metabolic inflammation markers.

S-nitrosoglutathione reductase deficiency causes aberrant placental S-nitrosylation and preeclampsia.

S. Kulandavelu, R. A. Dulce, C. I. Murray, M. A. Bellio, J. Fritsch, R. Kanashiro-Takeuchi, H. Arora, E. Paulino, D. Soetkamp, W. Balkan, J. E. Van Eyk, J. M. Hare

This study shows that GSNOR deficiency in mice causes preeclampsia through dysregulated placental S-nitrosylation, which can be reversed by ascorbate.
