It is possible to safely achieve optimal commissural alignment of a self-expanding transcatheter heart valve (THV) in the majority of patients undergoing TAVI, a new study suggests. The implantation ...
Commissural axons of the developing spinal cord are guided to the ventral midline by a collaboration of chemoattractants (Netrin-1 and Shh) and chemorepellents (bone morphogenetic proteins) secreted ...
Percutaneous mitral commissurotomy (PMC) is safe and effective for patients with mitral valve stenosis even in the presence of significant commissural calcification, according to a study published ...
Commissural axons cross the ventral midline of the neural tube in a Slit-dependent manner. The underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. We found that the deubiquitinating enzyme USP33 interacts ...
For patients undergoing transcatheter aortic valve replacement, using a specific orientation at deployment may optimize valve alignment and potentially preserve coronary access, at least for some ...
