Abstract
Background The shape of the left ventricle (LV) is an important index to explore cardiac pathophysiology. A comparison was provided to estimate circumferential, longitudinal, and radial wall stress in LV based on the thick-walled ellipsoidal models of Mirsky and Ghista-Sandler for discriminating significant coronary artery disease (CAD) patients from no CAD patients. Materials and Methods According to the angiography findings, 82 patients with CAD were divided into two groups: 25 patients without significant CAD and 57 patients with significant CAD of single vessel and multivessel. An ellipsoidal LV geometry was used to calculate end-systolic passive stress as the mechanical behavior of LV. Echocardiographic views-based measurements of LV diameters used to estimate the end-systolic wall stress. Results Circumferential wall stress between the control group and significant CAD groups was significantly elevated for the Ghista model (P = 0.008); also, radial and longitudinal stress of the multi-vessel CAD group was significantly higher than the control group (P = 0.01 and P = 0.005, respectively). All stress parameters of the multi-vessel CAD group were statistically significant compared to the control group for the Mirsky model. Receiver operating characteristics curve analysis was shown the circumferential stress of multi-vessel CAD with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.736 for the Ghista model and an AUC of 0.742 for the Mirsky model. Conclusion These results indicated that Ghista and Mirsky model estimates of circumferential passive stress were the potential biomechanical markers to predict patients with multi-vessel CAD. It could be a noninvasive and helpful tool to quantify the contractility of LV.

Abstract
PURPOSE Left ventricular (LV) dysfunction can be assessed by quantifying LV structure. In this study, physical parameters were extracted, including the systolic strain, wall stress, and elastic modulus of LV to diagnose stent candidate patients from the control group. METHODS Based on angiography results, 88 patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) were divided into 64 patients candidates for PCI (percutaneous coronary intervention) and 24 patients in the control group. With the thick-walled ellipsoidal model, the passive wall stresses at end-systole and end-diastole were estimated. Regional circumferential strain and regional longitudinal strain were obtained by speckle tracking technique. RESULTS The inferoseptal circumferential wall stress in end-systole was statistically significant for the PCI group compared to the control group (p = .026). Anterior and inferoseptal circumferential strain for the PCI group (-17.25 ± 4.22 and -18.21 ± 4.04%) compared to the control group (-21.71 ± 4.74 and 20.58 ± 3.04%) were statistically significant, respectively (p = .000 and p = .011). Anterior and inferoseptal circumferential elastic modulus were statistically significant (p = .000 and p = .005). The receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve analysis revealed that anterior and inferoseptal circumferential elastic modulus had the highest area under the curve with 76.6% sensitivity, 83.3% specificity for anterior circumferential, 68.8% sensitivity, and 70.8% specificity for inferoseptal circumferential, for the diagnosis of stent candidate patients. CONCLUSIONS Regional elastic modulus parameter is suggested as a noninvasive and quantitative method for measuring LV function. Strain and stress parameters using the STE method and geometrical model can be helpful for diagnostic stent candidate patients.

Abstract
Mitochondria adapt to different energetic demands reshaping their proteome. Mitochondrial proteases are emerging as key regulators of these adaptive processes. Here, we use a multiproteomic approach to demonstrate the regulation of the m‐AAA protease AFG3L2 by the mitochondrial proton gradient, coupling mitochondrial protein turnover to the energetic status of mitochondria. We identify TMBIM5 (previously also known as GHITM or MICS1) as a Ca2+/H+ exchanger in the mitochondrial inner membrane, which binds to and inhibits the m‐AAA protease. TMBIM5 ensures cell survival and respiration, allowing Ca2+ efflux from mitochondria and limiting mitochondrial hyperpolarization. Persistent hyperpolarization, however, triggers degradation of TMBIM5 and activation of the m‐AAA protease. The m‐AAA protease broadly remodels the mitochondrial proteome and mediates the proteolytic breakdown of respiratory complex I to confine ROS production and oxidative damage in hyperpolarized mitochondria. TMBIM5 thus integrates mitochondrial Ca2+ signaling and the energetic status of mitochondria with protein turnover rates to reshape the mitochondrial proteome and adjust the cellular metabolism.

Abstract
The mitochondrial intermembrane space protein AIFM1 has been reported to mediate the import of MIA40/CHCHD4, which forms the import receptor in the mitochondrial disulfide relay. Here, we demonstrate that AIFM1 and MIA40/CHCHD4 cooperate beyond this MIA40/CHCHD4 import. We show that AIFM1 and MIA40/CHCHD4 form a stable long‐lived complex in vitro, in different cell lines, and in tissues. In HEK293 cells lacking AIFM1, levels of MIA40 are unchanged, but the protein is present in the monomeric form. Monomeric MIA40 neither efficiently interacts with nor mediates the import of specific substrates. The import defect is especially severe for NDUFS5, a subunit of complex I of the respiratory chain. As a consequence, NDUFS5 accumulates in the cytosol and undergoes rapid proteasomal degradation. Lack of mitochondrial NDUFS5 in turn results in stalling of complex I assembly. Collectively, we demonstrate that AIFM1 serves two overlapping functions: importing MIA40/CHCHD4 and constituting an integral part of the disulfide relay that ensures efficient interaction of MIA40/CHCHD4 with specific substrates.

Abstract
Purpose: The goal of the study was to identify earlier pathology of the Left Ventricle (LV) using Speckle Tracking Echocardiography (STE) without angiography results for detecting Coronary Artery Disease (CAD) patients who have need invasive coronary reperfusion.
Materials and Methods: A total of seventy-five referral patients to angiography (mean age 57±9 years) with chest pain, underwent Two-Dimensional Echocardiography (2D-ECG). Conventional echocardiographic parameters were calculated for the assessment of LV function. End systole and early diastole longitudinal strain, strain rate, and velocity with 2D-STE were estimated to evaluate myocardial function. Discriminated analysis was performed to detect CAD patients from the healthy group.
Results: According to the angiography results, patients were divided into CAD group (n=55) and healthy group (n=20). There was a significant decrease in longitudinal strain, strain rate, and velocity in patients with CAD compared to the healthy group (systolic longitudinal strain for CAD group -15.9±2.2% vs. -19.6±2.2% for healthy group and early diastolic longitudinal strain for CAD patients -9.5±1.2% vs. -12.0±1.3% for the healthy group) (P-value<0.05). Discriminate analysis of end-systolic and early diastolic longitudinal strain with 81.8% and 89.1% indicated the highest sensitivity, respectively.
Conclusions: End systolic and early diastolic longitudinal strain parameters derived with the STE method are superior predictors for detecting CAD patients referred to angiography for revascularization.

Abstract
The α-synuclein (αSN) amyloid fibrillization process is known to be a crucial phenomenon associated with neuronal loss in various neurodegenerative diseases, most famously Parkinson's disease. The process involves different aggregated species and ultimately leads to formation of β-sheet rich fibrillar structures. Despite the essential role of αSN aggregation in the pathoetiology of various neurological disorders, the characteristics of various assemblies are not fully understood. Here, we established a fluorescence-based model for studying the end-parts of αSN to decipher the structural aspects of aggregates during the fibrillization. Our model proved highly sensitive to the events at the early stage of the fibrillization process, which are hardly detectable with routine techniques. Combining fluorescent and PAGE analysis, we found different oligomeric aggregates in the nucleation phase of fibrillization with different sensitivity to SDS and different structures based on αSN termini. Moreover, we found that these oligomers are highly dynamic: after reaching peak levels during fibrillization, they decline and eventually disappear, suggesting their transformation into other αSN aggregated species. These findings shed light on the structural features of various αSN aggregates and their dynamics in synucleinopathies.
