Researchers studied what happens immediately after a stroke in the stem cell niche known as the subventricular zone, using a mouse model. This revealed a mechanism that results in fewer newborn neurons from the stem cell niche surviving after stroke, thereby significantly limiting the neurogenic reaction of the subventricular zone to repair the brain.

Autophagy is the process of reusing the body’s senescent and damaged cell components, which can be regarded as the cellular circulatory system. There are three distinct forms of autophagy: macro-autophagy, micro-autophagy, and chaperone-mediated autophagy. In the heart, autophagy is regulated mainly through mitophagy due to the metabolic changes of cardiomyocytes caused by ischemia and hypoxia.

Abstract Introduction Complete isolation of the left atrial posterior wall (LAPW) is challenging owing to overlapping epicardial conduction. Peak frequency (PF) is a novel parameter that focuses on near- and far-field electrogram components. In this study, we aimed to determine whether transmural block completion is related to the ablation site PF. Methods We analyzed 44 consecutive patients undergoing initial LAPW isolation (LAPWI) between June 2023 and February 2024.
