Multiscale Models of Cardiac Muscle Biophysics and Tissue Remodeling in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathies.

Current opinion in biomedical engineering

Aboelkassem Y, Powers JD, McCabe KJ, McCulloch AD.
PMID: 31886450
Curr Opin Biomed Eng. 2019 Sep;11:35-44. doi: 10.1016/j.cobme.2019.09.005. Epub 2019 Sep 18.

Myocardial hypertrophy is the result of sustained perturbations to the mechanical and/or neurohormonal homeostasis of cardiac cells and is driven by integrated, multiscale biophysical and biochemical processes that are currently not well defined. In this brief review, we highlight...

Qualitative causal analyses of biosimulation models.

CEUR workshop proceedings

Neal ML, Gennari JH, Cook DL.
PMID: 28804276
CEUR Workshop Proc. 2016 Aug;1747. Epub 2016 Nov 29.

We describe an approach for performing qualitative, systems-level causal analyses on biosimulation models that leverages semantics-based modeling formats, formal ontology, and automated inference. The approach allows users to quickly investigate how a qualitative perturbation to an element within a...

Model of Human Fetal Growth in Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome: Reduced Ventricular Growth Due to Decreased Ventricular Filling and Altered Shape.

Frontiers in pediatrics

INTRODUCTION: Hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS) is a congenital condition with an underdeveloped left ventricle (LV) that provides inadequate systemic blood flow postnatally. The development of HLHS is postulated to be due to altered biomechanical stimuli during gestation. Predicting...

Insights and Challenges of Multi-Scale Modeling of Sarcomere Mechanics in cTn and Tm DCM Mutants-Genotype to Cellular Phenotype.

Frontiers in physiology

Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a leading cause of sudden cardiac death characterized by impaired pump function and dilatation of cardiac ventricles. In this review we discuss various

Tellurium notebooks-An environment for reproducible dynamical modeling in systems biology.

PLoS computational biology

Medley JK, Choi K, König M, Smith L, Gu S, Hellerstein J, Sealfon SC, Sauro HM.
PMID: 29906293
PLoS Comput Biol. 2018 Jun 15;14(6):e1006220. doi: 10.1371/journal.pcbi.1006220. eCollection 2018 Jun.

The considerable difficulty encountered in reproducing the results of published dynamical models limits validation, exploration and reuse of this increasingly large biomedical research resource. To address this problem, we have developed Tellurium Notebook, a software system for model authoring,...

Optical Cryoimaging Reveals a Heterogeneous Distribution of Mitochondrial Redox State in ex vivo Guinea Pig Hearts and Its Alteration During Ischemia and Reperfusion.

IEEE journal of translational engineering in health and medicine

Ranji M, Motlagh MM, Salehpour F, Sepehr R, Heisner JS, Dash RK, Camara AK.
PMID: 27574574
IEEE J Transl Eng Health Med. 2016 Jun 15;4:1800210. doi: 10.1109/JTEHM.2016.2570219. eCollection 2016.

Oxidation of substrates to generate ATP in mitochondria is mediated by redox reactions of NADH and FADH2. Cardiac ischemia and reperfusion (IR) injury compromises mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation. We hypothesize that IR alters the metabolic heterogeneity of mitochondrial redox state...

Biomechanics Simulations Using Cubic Hermite Meshes with Extraordinary Nodes for Isogeometric Cardiac Modeling.

Computer aided geometric design

Krishnamurthy A, Gonzales MJ, Sturgeon G, Segars WP, McCulloch AD.
PMID: 27182096
Comput Aided Geom Des. 2016 Mar;43:27-38. doi: 10.1016/j.cagd.2016.02.016.

Cubic Hermite hexahedral finite element meshes have some well-known advantages over linear tetrahedral finite element meshes in biomechanical and anatomic modeling using isogeometric analysis. These include faster convergence rates as well as the ability to easily model rule-based anatomic...

Translation of Cardiac Myosin Activation with 2-deoxy-ATP to Treat Heart Failure via an Experimental Ribonucleotide Reductase-Based Gene Therapy.

Despite recent advances, chronic heart failure remains a significant and growing unmet medical need, reaching epidemic proportions carrying substantial morbidity, mortality, and costs. A safe and convenient therapeutic agent that produces sustained inotropic effects could ameliorate symptoms, and improve...

Integrated Computational Model of Lung Tissue Bioenergetics.
