Advances in the Study of Exosomes in Cardiovascular Diseases

Advances in the Study of Exosomes in Cardiovascular Diseases

Source : https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38123019/

Exosomes are nanoscale vesicles surrounded by lipid bilayers that are secreted by most cells in the body. They are heterogeneous, varying in size and composition, with a diameter typically ranging...

This review emphasizes the potential clinical use of exosomes as biomarkers for diagnosing CVDs.

Within this study, preventing the development of AMD might cut down the incidence of several CVDs, in particular, significantly lowering the stroke risk. These findings indicate that interventions to prevent...

These findings indicate that interventions to prevent AMD may also help to prevent CVD.

Statins and risk of venous thromboembolic diseases: A two-sample mendelian randomization study

Statins and risk of venous thromboembolic diseases: A two-sample mendelian randomization study

In observational studies, statins have been suggested to have protective effects on venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE). To this aim, we performed a...

Conclusion: Our findings provide direct evidence that statins might decrease the risk of VTE, PE and LEDVT in agreement with observational studies. The specific mechanism of statin therapy for venous thromboembolism needs to be further studied.

Conclusions/Relevance: Critical gaps in implementation of exercise-based therapies for patients with HFpEF, including exercise setting, training modalities, combinations with other strategies such as diet and medications, long-term adherence, incorporation of innovative and more accessible delivery methods, and management of recently...
