    El podcast de JHLT en Español: Abril 2023

    El podcast de JHLT en Español: Abril 2023

    El podcast de JHLTenEspañol: presentamos por primera vez un podcast de JHLT en Español, conducido por Marta Farrero, MD, PhD, en el que repasamos 4 artículos destacados de 2022, cada uno centrado en el foco de interés de las redes interdisciplinarias de ISHLT.

    El artículo sobre soporte circulatorio se titula La recuperación de la función ventricular se asocia con mejores resultados en asistencia ventricular”, con Cameron Olsen, MD, como primer firmante, y es comentado por el Sebastián Rojas, MD. Se analiza el impacto clínico favorable de la recuperación de la fracción de eyección por encima del 40% en una cohorte retrospectiva de pacientes con implante de asistencia ventricular de larga duración.

    El artículo sobre trasplante pulmonar se titula Síndrome del injerto restrictivo vs bronquiolitis obliterante: caracterización inmunológica y molecular de exosomas circulantes”, con Sandhya Bansal, PhD primer firmante, comentado por Alejandro Bertolotti, MD. Este trabajo se propone tratar de caracterizar la patogenia del rechazo crónico analizando el contenido de moléculas proinflamatorias y potencialmente inmunogénicas contenidas en exosomas aislados del plasma de receptore de trasplante pulmonar.

    El artículo sobre hipertensión pulmonar se titula “Escalas de riesgo y predicción clínica en hipertensión arterial pulmonar, un análisis del freedom-EV” con de Raymond L. Benza, MD como primer firmante y Roberto Bernardo, MD, MS para realizar los comentarios. En este subanálisis se observa como las escalas de riesgo de los pacientes con hipertensión pulmonar mejoran tras la administración de treprostinil oral.

    El cuarto y último artículo se titula MicroRNA circulante y rechazo mediado por anticuerpos en el trasplante cardíaco”, con Palak Shah, MD, MS como primer firmante y comentado por Vanessa Blumer, MD. En este trabajo se identificó qué microRNA se asocian a rechazo celular y mediado por anticuerpos, permitiendo hacer el diagnóstico con una buena sensibilidad y especificidad.

    Tumori Journal – Open Science Bar: From tissue to liquid biopsy in lung cancer

    Tumori Journal – Open Science Bar: From tissue to liquid biopsy in lung cancer

    Dr Paola Perego and Dr Mattia Boeri discuss the usefulness of liquid biopsy for the management of lung cancer and the next frontiers of its clinical application. From an overview of what liquid biopsy means today, the two researchers debate the pros and cons of this technology and its use for early diagnosis, talking about the results of the BioMILD lung cancer screening study on more than 4000 volunteers.

    TWiV 580: Noncoding RNA with Chris Sullivan

    TWiV 580: Noncoding RNA with Chris Sullivan

    From the University of Texas at Austin, Vincent and Rich speak with Chris Sullivan about his work on miRNAs encoded in the genomes of polyomaviruses and papillomaviruses, and how an RNA triphosphatase restricts hepatitis C virus replication.

    Hosts: Vincent Racaniello and Rich Condit

    The Salamander Study

    The Salamander Study
    Movement is life, as Karel says, and today you’ll learn that you have more in common with a salamander than you thought!

    This week you’ll learn:
    - What micro RNA is doing to help you heal
    - What you can do to increase the health of your joints by improving the health of your micro RNA
    - A tiny bit about what steroids are doing to help and harm you
    Join us next week as we continue to Challenge Aging!

    How Chlamydia help mitochondria keep it together

    The obligate intracellular bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis must keep its host cell alive, even though it produces reactive oxygen species that expose the host cell to oxidative stress. Chowdhury et al. reveal that Chlamydia mitigates this oxidative stress by down-regulating the mitochondrial fission protein DRP1 via a microRNA- and p53-dependent pathway, thereby maintaining the mitochondrial network and ATP production to promote host cell survival and bacterial growth. This biosights episode presents the paper by Chowdhury et al. from the April 3rd, 2017, issue of The Journal of Cell Biology and includes an interview with two of the paper's authors, Suvagata Roy Chowdhury and Thomas Rudel (University of Würzburg, Würzburg, Germany). Produced by Caitlin Sedwick and Ben Short. See the associated paper in JCB for details on the funding provided to support this original research.

    Circulating MicroRNAs: What Is Their Relevance?

    Circulating MicroRNAs: What Is Their Relevance?

    A paper in the May 2013 issue of Clinical Chemistry found that circulating microRNAs were deregulated in severe obesity, and the lead author of that study Dr. Francisco José Ortega from Spain joined us earlier for a separate podcast. That paper was accompanied by an editorial addressing the relevance of circulating microRNAs in plasma. The lead author of that commentary, Dr. Catriona Hilton from the Oxford Centre for Diabetes, Endocrinology, and Metabolism in Oxford, England, joins us today in this podcast.
