Pulmonary Vascular Endothelial Dysfunction is Induced by Non-Pulsatile Pulmonary Blood Flow in an Ovine Classic Glenn Model

This study shows that non-pulsatile pulmonary blood flow after a Glenn procedure causes endothelial dysfunction in lambs, independent of hypoxemia and polycythemia.

Microvascular preservation and cardiomyocyte hyperplasia underlie adaptive right ventricular development in congenital heart disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension

This study investigates adaptive right ventricular development in congenital heart disease-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension, finding preserved microvascular density and increased cardiomyocyte hyperplasia support RV function.

The Gag Protein PEG10 Binds to RNA and Regulates Trophoblast Stem Cell Lineage Specification.

This study shows that PEG10 binds RNA and regulates trophoblast stem cell differentiation into placental lineages by stabilizing key RNAs like Hbegf.
