Cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the
world. Although considerable progress has been made in the diagnosis, treatment and …

The onset of heart failure is typically preceded by cardiac hypertrophy, a response of the
heart to increased workload, a cardiac insult such as a heart attack or genetic mutation …

The majority of the human genome encodes RNAs that do not code for proteins. These non-
coding RNAs (ncRNAs) affect normal expression of the genes, including oncogenes and …

The age-related vasculature alteration is the prominent risk factor for vascular diseases
(VD), namely, atherosclerosis, abdominal aortic aneurysm, vascular calcification (VC) and …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that block translation or induce
degradation of mRNA and thereby control patterns of gene expression. Acute myocardial …

miRNAs are small non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), which regulate gene expression. Here, the
authors describe the contribution of miRNAs to cardiac biology and disease. They discuss …

miRNAs are responsible for post-transcriptional control of gene expression, and are
frequently downregulated in cancer. It has become well established that restoring miRNA …

Rationale: In response to injury, the rodent heart is capable of virtually full regeneration via
cardiomyocyte proliferation early in life. This regenerative capacity, however, is diminished …

The benefits of exercise on the heart are well recognized, and clinical studies have
demonstrated that exercise is an intervention that can improve cardiac function in heart …

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are still the main cause of morbidity and mortality
worldwide and include a group of disorders varying from vasculature, myocardium …
