Mitigating Cardiotoxicity of Dendrimers: Angiotensin-(1-7) via Its Mas Receptor Ameliorates PAMAM-Induced Cardiac Dysfunction in the Isolated Mammalian Heart by Akhtar, Saghir

“…Aim: The influence of the physiochemical properties of dendrimer nanoparticles on cardiac contractility and hemodynamics are not known. Herein, we investigated (a) the effect of polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimer generation (G7, G6, G5, G4 and G3) and surface chemistry (-NH2, -COOH and -OH) on cardiac function in mammalian hearts following ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury, and (b) determined if any PAMAM-induced cardiotoxicity could be mitigated by Angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7), a cardioprotective agent. …”

Heat stress impairs proprioception but not running mechanics by Mtibaa K.

“…Average error during the proprioception test increased after running in HOT (+11%, p < 0.05) but not in COOL (−2%). There was no significant difference for most segmental and joint angles at heel contact, except for a global increase in pelvis retroversion and decrease in ankle dorsi-flexion angles with time (p < 0.05). …”

Spatio-temporal variation in potential habitats for rare and endangered plants and habitat conservation based on the maximum entropy model by Zongbao, Yang

“…Gap analysis showed that only 35.85% of habitat hotspots are currently included in existing PAs and that this will decrease to 32.26% by 2050. This emphasizes the importance of protecting current and future potential habitats of REPs in a dynamic conservation approach that can adapt to changes in future climate and human activities.…”
