Ischemic Cell Death in Brain Neurons

TL;DR: A major unifying thread of the review is a consideration of how the changes occurring during and after ischemia conspire to produce damaging levels of free radicals and peroxynitrite to activate calpain and other Ca(2+)-driven processes that are damaging, and to initiate the apoptotic process.
Journal ArticleDOI

Creatine and Creatinine Metabolism

TL;DR: A comprehensive survey of the many intriguing facets of creatine (Cr) and creatinine metabolism is presented, encompassing the pathways and regulation of Cr biosynthesis and degradation, species and tissue distribution of the enzymes and metabolites involved, and of the inherent implications for physiology and human pathology.

Skeletal Muscle Fatigue: Cellular Mechanisms

TL;DR: Most of the mechanistic studies of fatigue are on isolated animal tissues, and another major challenge is to use the knowledge generated in these studies to identify the mechanisms of fatigue in intact animals and particularly in human diseases.

The failing heart--an engine out of fuel.

TL;DR: This review describes cardiac energy metabolism, appraises the methods used for its assessment, evaluates the role of impaired energy metabolism in heart failure, and gives options for metabolic therapy.

Myocardial Phosphocreatine-to-ATP Ratio Is a Predictor of Mortality in Patients With Dilated Cardiomyopathy

TL;DR: The myocardial phosphocreatine-to-ATP ratio, measured noninvasively with 31P-MR spectroscopy, is a predictor of both total and cardiovascular mortality in patients with dilated cardiomyopathy.
