Takotsubo Cardiomyopathy and Associated Phenomena

Oral administration of Angiotensin-(1-7) included in hydroxypropyl β-cyclodextrin attenuates cardiac hypertrophy and inflammation in a mouse model of Takotsubo cardiomyopathy

Insular hemorrhagic stroke in mice: a model of neurocardiac dysfunction

This study evaluates the effects of rilmenidine on cardiac function and inflammation in a mouse model of insular hemorrhagic stroke, finding it prevents major cardiac changes.

Protein Phosphatase 2A Activation Attenuates Acute Myocardial Injury in Takotsubo Syndrome by Modulating Ferroptosis and Mitochondrial Injury in Cardiomyocytes

This study identifies PP2A inactivation as a key driver of myocardial injury in TTS, showing that restoring PP2A or inhibiting JNK reduces ferroptosis and mitochondrial dysfunction.

Copy number variants implicate cardiac function and development pathways in earthquake-induced stress cardiomyopathy

The paper identifies a high rate of rare copy number variants in women with earthquake-induced stress cardiomyopathy, suggesting potential genetic predisposition.
