Liquid biopsy refers to the sampling and molecular analysis of the biofluids of circulating
tumor cells, extracellular vesicles, nucleic acids, and so forth. Exosomes are small …

The discovery of microRNAs and their role in diseases was a breakthrough that inspired
research into microRNAs as drug targets. Cardiovascular diseases are an area in which …

Background: Cardiomyopathies are a heterogeneous group of pathologies characterized by
structural and functional alterations of the heart. Aims: The purpose of this narrative review is …

Peripartum cardiomyopathy (PPCM) is a potentially life‐threatening condition typically
presenting as heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF) in the last month of …

Exosomes are small membrane-bound vesicles of endocytic origin that are actively
secreted. The potential of exosomes as effective communicators of biological signaling in …

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) comprise apoptotic bodies, microvesicles and exosomes, and
they perform as key regulators in cell-to-cell communication in normal as well as diseased …

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are members of a non-coding RNA family. They act as negative
regulators of protein translation by affecting messenger RNA (mRNA) stability; they …

The use of extracellular vesicles (EV) in nano drug delivery has been demonstrated in many
previous studies. In this study, we discuss the sources of extracellular vesicles, including …

Background Peripartum cardiomyopathy shares some clinical features with idiopathic
dilated cardiomyopathy, a disorder caused by mutations in more than 40 genes, including …

In response to stress, the heart undergoes extensive cardiac remodeling that results in
cardiac fibrosis and pathological growth of cardiomyocytes (hypertrophy), which contribute …
