Protein That Can Be Toxic in the Heart and Nerves May Help Prevent Alzheimer’s
A new study led by a UT Southwestern researcher shows. The findings, published recently in the Journal of Biological Chemistry, could lead to new treatments for this brain-ravaging condition, which currently has no truly effective therapies and no cure.

Even with Regular Exercise, Astronaut’s Heart Left Smaller After a Year in Space
With NASA preparing to send humans to Mars in the 2030s, researchers are studying the physical effects of spending long periods in space. Now a new study by scientists at UT Southwestern shows that the heart of an astronaut who spent nearly a year aboard the International Space Station shrank, even with regular exercise, although it continued to function well.

SGLT2 Inhibition in Acute Decompensated Heart Failure: Another Win for this Remarkable Class of Medications
The data as presented strongly support initiating SGLT2 inhibition during hospitalization for acute decompensated heart failure. Such an approach would be a change in the current standard of care for this large and ill population.

Hemodynamic Support in Management of Cardiogenic Shock
Observational studies suggest that a shock team approach is associated with higher PA catheter use, more appropriate MCS use (and paradoxically, a lower MCS use overall), and potentially lower mortality.

Single Protein Prompts Mature Brain Cells to Regenerate Multiple Cell Yypes Published on:
A single protein can reverse the developmental clock on adult brain cells called astrocytes, morphing them into stem-like cells that produce neurons and other cell types, UT Southwestern researchers report in a PNAS study. The findings might someday lead to a way to regenerate brain tissue after disease or injury.

UTSW Study Finds It Safe to Give Clot-busting Drug to Stroke Patients Who Took Blood Thinners
Stroke patients on long-term blood thinners who were given the clot-busting drug alteplase enjoyed better recoveries than those who did not receive the drug and had no increased risk of bleeding, a new study led by UTSW researchers shows. The results run counter to the common practice of withholding the clot-busting drug to these patients due to concerns over complications from bleeding.

UTSW Researchers Identify Key Complex for Ribosome Generation
UT Southwestern researchers have identified a four-protein complex that appears to play a key role in generating ribosomes – organelles that serve as protein factories for cells – as well as a surprising part in neurodevelopmental disorders. These findings, published in Cell Reports, could lead to new ways to manipulate ribosome production, which could impact a variety of conditions that affect human health.
