Journal ArticleDOI
Right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery shunt versus modified Blalock-Taussig shunt in the Norwood procedure for hypoplastic left heart syndrome - influence on early and late haemodynamic status.
TL;DR: A stable haemodynamic status due to independent coronary perfusion, higher diastolic and lower pulse pressure is the most advantageous effect of RV-PA, resulting in a lower mortality and morbidity after NP.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell-Derived Microvesicles Transmit RNAs and Proteins to Recipient Mature Heart Cells Modulating Cell Fate and Behavior
Sylwia Bobis-Wozowicz,Katarzyna Kmiotek,Malgorzata Sekula,Sylwia Kedracka-Krok,Elzbieta Kamycka,Marta Adamiak,Urszula Jankowska,Anna Madetko-Talowska,Michal Sarna,Miroslaw Bik-Multanowski,Jacek Kołcz,Dariusz Boruczkowski,Zbigniew Madeja,Buddhadeb Dawn,Ewa K. Zuba-Surma +14 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that hiPSC‐MVs are effective vehicles for transferring iPSC attributes to adult somatic cells, and hiPSCs‐MV‐mediated horizontal transfer of RNAs and proteins to injured tissues may be used for therapeutic tissue repair.
Journal ArticleDOI
Neonatal repair of tetralogy of Fallot results in improved pulmonary artery development without increased need for reintervention
Jacek Kołcz,Christian Pizarro +1 more
TL;DR: Elective repair of TOF in neonates with confluent central pulmonary arteries has excellent results in the absence of significant associated non-cardiac conditions and affords a freedom from reintervention no different from patients repaired during infancy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extracorporeal Life Support in Severe Propranolol and Verapamil Intoxication
Jacek Kołcz,Jacek J Pietrzyk,Katarzyna Januszewska,Malgorzata Procelewska,Tomasz Mroczek,Edward Malec +5 more
TL;DR: The effectiveness of emergency extracorporeal life support in treating life-threatening simultaneous propranolol and verapamil intoxication is shown and should be considered early in cases of near-fatal intoxications with cardiodepressive drugs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diverse impact of xeno-free conditions on biological and regenerative properties of hUC-MSCs and their extracellular vesicles.
Sylwia Bobis-Wozowicz,Katarzyna Kmiotek,Karolina Kania,Elżbieta Karnas,Anna Labedz-Maslowska,Malgorzata Sekula,Sylwia Kedracka-Krok,Jacek Kołcz,Dariusz Boruczkowski,Zbigniew Madeja,Ewa K. Zuba-Surma +10 more
TL;DR: The results show that proliferation, differentiation, phenotype stability, and cytokine secretion by UC-MSCs vary depending on the type of xeno-free media, which may be explained by elevated concentration of several pro-cardiogenic and pro-angiogenic microRNAs present in the EVs.
