Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a major health problem with limited treatment options. Although optimizing cardiac energy metabolism is a potential approach to treating heart failure, it is poorly understood what alterations in cardiac energy metabolism actually occur in HFpEF. To determine this, we used mice in which HFpEF was induced using an obesity and hypertension HFpEF protocol for 10 weeks.

Ketamine is a new, potent and rapid-acting antidepressant approved for therapy of treatment-resistant depression, which has a different mechanism of action than currently-available antidepressant therapies. It owes its uniquely potent antidepressant properties to a complex mechanism of action, which currently remains unclear. However, it is thought that it acts by modulating the functioning of the glutamatergic system, which plays an important role in the process of neuroplasticity associated wi

NK cells are among the front line of protection from infected and abnormal cells as part of the ‘innate immune response’. They recognise ‘cell stress molecules’ on the surface of infected, old, injured and cancerous cells without the need for complex pre-stimulation signals of the adaptive immune system (eg, T cells). They do not induce ‘graft versus host’ disease when transplanted for allogeneic therapy and there appears little sign of immune rejection.

Creatinine, a clinical marker for kidney function, is predominantly cleared by glomerular filtration, with active tubular secretion contributing to about 30% of its renal clearance. Recent studies suggested the potential involvement of organic anion transporter (OAT)2, in addition to the previously known organic cation transporter (OCT)2-mediated basolateral uptake, in creatinine active secretion.

Botulinum neurotoxin (BoNT) is a potent protein toxin that causes muscle paralysis and death by asphyxiation. Treatments for symptomatic botulism are intubation and supportive care until respiratory function recovers. Aminopyridines have recently emerged as potential treatments for botulism. The clinically approved drug 3,4-diaminopyridine (3,4-DAP) rapidly reverses toxic signs of botulism and has antidotal effects when continuously administered in rodent models of lethal botulism.

Unfortunately, no specific pediatric OP neurotoxicity model currently exists. In this study, we developed and characterized a pediatric rat model of status epilepticus (SE) induced by the OP diisopropylfluorophosphate (DFP) and examined its impact on long-term neurological outcomes.
