Epicardial delivery of human follistatin-like 1 protein (FSTL1) induces significant cardiac benefit following a myocardial infarction (MI). However, the optimal dosing regimen for maximal therapeutic benefit has not yet been elucidated. To investigate the impact of multiple FSTL1 doses, without the confounding effects of multiple surgical procedures for multidose delivery, alternative delivery strategies are needed. Here, we use an epicardial reservoir that allows non-invasive delivery of additional doses after implantation to investigate the impact of single, double, and triple FSTL1 dose regimens in a rat model of MI. Multidose delivery of FSTL1 improves ejection fraction (3 doses), fractional shortening (1, 2 and 3 doses), and chamber stiffness (2 doses) 28 days after MI. Histologically, multiple FSTL1 doses increase ventricular wall thickness (2 and 3 doses) and reduce infarct size (1, 2, and 3 doses). We also demonstrate a dose-dependent increase in blood vessel number and density in the infarct zone, with three FSTL1 doses leading to the highest improvements. This study shows that multidose delivery of FSTL1 improves cardiac function, healing, and angiogenesis following MI. The epicardial delivery platform used here may be essential in optimizing dosing regimens of various bioagent combinations for a range of clinical indications. © 2023, The Authors.

A comprehensive three-dimensional (3D) map of tissue architecture and gene expression is crucial for illuminating the complexity and heterogeneity of tissues across diverse biomedical applications1. However, most spatial transcriptomics (ST) approaches remain limited to two-dimensional (2D) sections of tissue2–4. Although current 3D ST methods hold promise, they typically require extensive tissue sectioning, are complex, are not compatible with non-destructive 3D tissue imaging technologies, and often lack scalability5–8. Here, we present VOlumetrically Resolved Transcriptomics EXpression (VORTEX), an AI framework that leverages 3D tissue morphology and minimal 2D ST to predict volumetric 3D ST. By pretraining on diverse 3D morphology–transcriptomic pairs from heterogeneous tissue samples and then fine-tuning on minimal 2D ST data from a specific volume of interest, VORTEX learns both generic tissue-related and sample-specific morphological correlates of gene expression. This approach enables dense, high-throughput, and fast 3D ST, scaling seamlessly to large tissue volumes far beyond the reach of existing 3D ST techniques. By offering a cost-effective and minimally destructive route to obtaining volumetric molecular insights, we anticipate that VORTEX will accelerate biomarker discovery and our understanding of morphomolecular associations and cell states in complex tissues.

Objective: Magnetic fields switching at kilohertz frequencies induce electric fields in the body, which can cause peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS). Although magnetostimulation has been extensively studied below 10 kHz, the behavior of PNS at higher frequencies remains poorly understood. This study aims to investigate PNS thresholds at frequencies up to 88.1 kHz and to explore deviations from the widely accepted hyperbolic strength-duration curve (SDC). Methods and procedures: PNS thresholds were measured in the head of 8 human volunteers using a solenoidal coil at 16 distinct frequencies, ranging from 200 Hz to 88.1 kHz. A hyperbolic SDC was used as a reference to compare the frequency-dependent behavior of PNS thresholds. Results: Contrary to the predictions of the hyperbolic SDC, PNS thresholds did not decrease monotonically with frequency. Instead, thresholds reached a minimum near 25 kHz, after which they increased by an average of 39% from 25 kHz to 88.1 kHz across subjects. This pattern indicates a significant deviation from previously observed behavior at lower frequencies. Conclusion: Our results suggest that PNS thresholds exhibit a non-monotonic frequency dependence at higher frequencies, diverging from the traditional hyperbolic SDC. These findings offer critical data for refining neurodynamic models and provide insights for setting PNS safety limits in applications like MRI gradient coils and magnetic particle imaging (MPI). Further investigation is needed to understand the biological mechanisms driving these deviations beyond 25 kHz. Clinical impact: These findings call for further basic research into biological mechanisms underlying high frequency PNS threshold trends, and supports refinement of safety guidelines for MRI and MPI systems for clinical implementation. © 2013 IEEE.

We propose a ten-yearMars mission to establish Earth-independence and support efficient, safe, and sustainable science and exploration goals. The campaign begins with a series of precursor missions, starting with the Artemis program, followed by robotic missions to performsite surveys and selection, de-risk technologies, and to start stockpiling in-situ water and propellant. Robotic Cargo Starships would depart first in 2035 to deliver and deploy approximately 5,800 tons of habitats, nuclear microreactors, farmmodules, manufacturing and ISRU systems. In 2040, two Crew Starships carrying 36 persons would land onMars to establish two close-proximity villages. The lifecycle cost is estimated at $81 billion, with a peak annual cost of $6.6 billion. To meet RASC-AL competition requirements, intended to motivate the exploration of highly self-reliant architecture concepts, resupply from Earth was constrained to only 5 metric tons every two years and minimum surface endurance was set at 7 years. The risks to human life and to critical systems increase exponentially over a minimally-resupplied, 7-10 year mission toMars. Our approach focused on identifying capabilities to mitigate known and unknown risks. Using a high-fidelity crew time model, we found that large architectures, with their economies of scale and productivity gains from specialization, are essential to robustly support the necessary capabilities. The model also shows that small 7-year missions of 12 persons or less cannot provide value in terms of free surface traverse time for science and exploration. Given the necessity of a large, complex architecture, we then sought out efficiencies and synergies (value engineering) in order to make the mission feasible and affordable. In the process, we identified more benefits that are enabled only by large missions, including the creation of a true community on Mars with sufficient social complexity for humans to thrive, and the geopolitically compelling option to inclu

Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion: Current Stroke Prevention Strategies and a Shift Toward Data-Driven, Patient-Specific Approaches

引用

Journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Angiography and Interventions 2022年第5期1卷 100405-100405页

作者： Mendez, Keegan Kennedy, Darragh G. Wang, Dee Dee Roche, Ellen T.

The left atrial appendage (LAA) is a complex structure with unknown physiologic function protruding from the main body of the left atrium. In patients with atrial fibrillation, the left atrium does not contract effectively. Insufficient atrial and LAA contractility predisposes the LAA morphology to hemostasis and thrombus formation, leading to an increased risk of cardioembolic events. Oral anticoagulation therapies are the mainstay of stroke prevention options for patients;however, not all patients are candidates for long-term oral anticoagulation. Percutaneous occlusion devices are an attractive alternative to long-term anticoagulation therapy, although they are not without limitations, such as peri-implant leakage and device-related thrombosis. Although efforts have been made to reduce these risks, significant interpatient heterogeneity inevitably yields some degree of device-anatomy mismatch that is difficult to resolve using current devices and can ultimately lead to insufficient occlusion and poor patient outcomes. In this state-of-the-art review, we evaluated the anatomy of the LAA as well as the current pathophysiologic understanding and stroke prevention strategies used in the management of the risk of stroke associated with atrial fibrillation. We highlighted recent advances in computed tomography imaging, preprocedural planning, computational modeling, and novel additive manufacturing techniques, which represent the tools needed for a paradigm shift toward patient-centric LAA occlusion. Together, we envisage that these techniques will facilitate a pipeline from the imaging of patient anatomy to patient-specific computational and bench-top models that enable customized, data-driven approaches for LAA occlusion that are engineered specifically to meet each patient's unique needs. © 2022 The Authors

Interoception, or the perception and regulation of body signals by the central nervous system, is critical for maintaining homeostasis and coordination of behaviors. Deciphering the mechanisms of interoception requires identifying pathways and decoding of diverse signals across the brain-body axis. These studies are enabled by tools to modulate and record physiological processes in the brain and visceral organs. While numerous advanced neurotechnologies are well-established in the brain, these techniques often offer limited utility for other organs, such as the gastrointestinal tract, heart, liver, or bladder. In this review, we highlight recent advances in technologies for recording and modulation of visceral organ physiology in small animals in vivo, with a focus on implantable bioelectronic organ interfaces that can be deployed in behaving animals. We discuss how such interfaces are made possible through innovations in materials and electronics and outline unmet technological challenges in interoception research. © 2025 Elsevier Ltd

BACKGROUND: Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is heritable and a potential consequence of exposure to traumatic stress. Evidence suggests that a quantitative approach to PTSD phenotype measurement and incorporation of lifetime trauma exposure (LTE) information could enhance the discovery power of PTSD genome-wide association studies (GWASs). METHODS: A GWAS on PTSD symptoms was performed in 51 cohorts followed by a fixed-effects meta-analysis (N = 182,199 European ancestry participants). A GWAS of LTE burden was performed in the UK Biobank cohort (N = 132,988). Genetic correlations were evaluated with linkage disequilibrium score regression. Multivariate analysis was performed using Multi-Trait Analysis of GWAS. Functional mapping and annotation of leading loci was performed with FUMA. Replication was evaluated using the Million Veteran program GWAS of PTSD total symptoms. RESULTS: GWASs of PTSD symptoms and LTE burden identified 5 and 6 independent genome-wide significant loci, respectively. There was a 72% genetic correlation between PTSD and LTE. PTSD and LTE showed largely similar patterns of genetic correlation with other traits, albeit with some distinctions. Adjusting PTSD for LTE reduced PTSD heritability by 31%. Multivariate analysis of PTSD and LTE increased the effective sample size of the PTSD GWAS by 20% and identified 4 additional loci. Four of these 9 PTSD loci were independently replicated in the Million Veteran program. CONCLUSIONS: Through using a quantitative trait measure of PTSD, we identified novel risk loci not previously identified using prior case-control analyses. PTSD and LTE have a high genetic overlap that can be leveraged to increase discovery power through multivariate methods.
