Right Ventricular Function and Failure Report of a National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Working Group on Cellular and Molecular Mechanisms of Right Heart Failure

TL;DR: A working group charged with delineating in broad terms the current base of scientific and medical understanding about the right ventricle and identifying avenues of investigation likely to meaningfully advance knowledge in a clinically useful direction is convened.
Journal ArticleDOI

Changes in gene expression in the intact human heart. Downregulation of alpha-myosin heavy chain in hypertrophied, failing ventricular myocardium.

TL;DR: Both nonfailing intact and explanted human ventricular myocardium expressed substantial amounts of alpha-myosin heavy chain mRNA (alpha-MHC, 23-34% of total), and it is concluded that at the mRNA level nonf failing human heart expresses substantial alpha-M HC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rapid prototyping: a new tool in understanding and treating structural heart disease.

TL;DR: The cardiovascular applications of rapid prototyping are discussed, a new technology that may not only play a significant role in the planning of catheter-based interventions but also may serve as a valuable educational tool to enhance the medical community’s understanding of the many forms of structural heart disease.
