Abstract
Lipid deposition has been considered one of the key factors in the occurrence of valvular heart disease (VHD) and a great potential target for the diagnosis of VHD. However, the development of lipid imaging technologies and efficient lipid specific probes is in urgent demand. In this work, we have prepared a lipid droplets (LDs) targeted fluorescence probe CPTM based on a push-pull electronic structure for the imaging of diseased aortic valves. CPTM showed obvious twisted intramolecular charge transfer (TICT) effect and its emission changed from 600 nm in water to 508 nm in oil. CPTM not only exhibited good biocompatibility and high photostability, but also impressive LDs specific imaging performance in human primary valvular interstitial cells and human diseased aortic valves. Moreover, the dynamic changes of intracellular LDs could be monitor in real-time after staining with CPTM. These results were expected to offer new ideals for the designing of novel LDs specific probes for further bioimaging applications.

Eur J Prev Cardiol 2023; 30:1665-1673. [PMID: 37259902 DOI: 10.1093/eurjpc/zwad177] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/17/2023] [Indexed: 06/02/2023]
Abstract
AIMS Genetic and lifestyle factors are both major contributors to valvular heart disease (VHD). However, it is still uncertain whether genetic susceptibility alters the association between lifestyle and VHD. We aimed to investigate the association between lifestyle and VHD in different genetic risk backgrounds. METHODS AND RESULTS A prospective cohort study was carried out on 499 341 participants without VHD at baseline. The assessment of lifestyle included smoking, alcohol consumption, diet, activity, and sleep. Genetic susceptibility was separately measured by polygenic risk scores (PRSs) and family history of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Cox regression models were used to estimate hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (95%CIs) between lifestyle and VHD, as well as aortic stenosis (AS). During a median follow-up of 10.8 years, 12 983 incident VHD cases were diagnosed (incidence rate 2.46 per 1000 person-years), including 3527 AS cases (incidence rate 0.66 per 1000 person-years). The risk of VHD and AS decreased with healthier lifestyles (P value for trend <0.001). Compared to individuals with a unhealthy lifestyle, the HRs of VHD in intermediate and healthy lifestyle groups were 0.81 (0.76-0.86) and 0.81 (0.76-0.87). The negative association between healthy lifestyle and VHD events was independent of genetic risk (P for interaction between healthy lifestyle scores and PRSs/family history of CVD was 0.723/0.763). Similar findings were obtained in analyses of AS, and a stronger negative association was found. CONCLUSION Our study reveals that adherence to a healthy lifestyle is significantly associated with a reduced risk of VHD especially AS, irrespective of genetic susceptibility. SUMMARY Based on a cohort of around 490 000 participants, the study investigated the association between lifestyle and VHD under different stratifications of genetic risk. The study found that a healthy lifestyle was associated with a lower risk of VHD, particularly AS, independent of genetic risk. Our findings suggest that advance interventions for lifestyle may be an effective way to reduce the global burden of VHD.

Abstract
Heart diseases, especially cardiovascular diseases, have brought heavy burden on society for their high morbidity and mortality. In clinical, heart transplantation is recognized as an effective strategy to rescue the lives of patients, while it may suffer from lack of donors and possible immune responses. In view of this, tremendous efforts have been devoted to developing alternative strategies to recover the function and promote the regeneration of cardiac tissues. As an emerging field blending cell biology and material science, tissue engineering technique allows the construction of biomimetic living complexes as organ substitutes for heart repair. In this review, we will present the recent progress in cardiac tissue engineering and artificial hearts. After introducing the critical elements in cardiac tissue engineering, we will present advanced fabrication methods to achieve scaffolds with desired micro/nanostructure design as well as the applications of these bioinspired scaffolds. We will also discuss the current dilemma and possible development direction from a biomedical perspective.

[PMID: 35366293 PMCID: PMC8955830 DOI: 10.3390/pathophysiology29010010] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2022] [Revised: 03/07/2022] [Accepted: 03/07/2022] [Indexed: 12/03/2022] Open
Abstract
Background: Understanding of the risk factors for the development of adverse outcomes after aortic valve replacement is necessary to develop timely preventive measures and to improve the results of surgical treatment. Methods: We analyzed patients with aortic stenosis (n = 742) who underwent surgical treatment in the period 2014−2020. The average age was 63 (57;69) years—men 58%, women 42%. Results: The hospital mortality rate was 3% (22 patients). The following statistically significant threshold values (cut-off points) were obtained in the ROC analysis: aortic cross-clamp time > 93 min AUC (CI) 0.676 (0.640−0.710), p = 0.010; cardiopulmonary bypass time > 144 min AUC (CI) 0.809 (0.778−0.837), p < 0.0001, hemoglobin before op <120 g/L. AUC (CI) 0.762 (0.728−0.793), p < 0.0001, hematocrit before op <39% AUC (CI) 0.755 (0.721−0.786), p < 0.001, end-diastolic dimension index >2.39 AUC (CI) 0.647 (0.607−0.686), p = 0.014, end-systolic dimension index > 1.68 AUC (CI) 0.657 (0.617−0.695), p = 0.009. Statistically significant independent predictors of hospital mortality were identified: BMI > 30 kg/m2 (OR 2.84; CI 1.15−7.01), ischemic heart disease (OR 3.65; CI 1.01−13.2), diabetes (OR 3.88; CI 1.38−10.9), frequent ventricular ectopy before operation (OR 9.78; CI 1.91−50.2), mitral valve repair (OR 4.47; CI 1.76−11.3), tricuspid valve repair (OR 3.06; CI 1.09−8.58), 3 and more procedures (OR 4.44; CI 1.67−11.8). Conclusions: The hospital mortality rate was 3%. The main indicators associated with the risk of death were: diabetes, overweight (body mass index more than 30 kg/m2), frequent ventricular ectopy before surgery, hemoglobin level below 120 g/L, hematocrit level below 39%, longer cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamp time, additional mitral and tricuspid valve interventions.

Abstract
Over the last decade, based on evidence from multiple randomized clinical trials, transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) has become the established treatment for patients with symptomatic severe aortic stenosis. Despite the overwhelming expansion of TAVR in Western countries, the initial uptake and widespread adoption of this procedure have been relatively delayed in Asian countries, owing to the high cost of devices; limited local health and reimbursement policies; and lack of specific training/proctoring program, specialized heart team, or dedicated infrastructure. Furthermore, it has not yet been determined whether there are substantial interracial and ethnic differences in the clinical characteristics, comorbidities, and anatomic features, as well as procedural and long-term outcomes, in patients receiving TAVR. In this review, we provide not only a comprehensive look at the current status and outcomes of TAVR in Asian populations compared with those of Western populations but also a perspective on the future of TAVR in Asia.
