The Efficacy of Etoposide on H9c2 Cardiomyoblasts Against Doxorubicin Induced Cardiotoxicity
Shabana, Sara; Aden, Suad; Abdulrahman, Nabeel; Riaz, Sadaf; Jaballah, Maiy; Mohamed, Iman A.; Mraiche, Fatima... more authors ... less authors ( OMICS International , 2015 , Article)Background: Doxorubicin (DOX), a widely used anticancer drug, has been associated with cardiotoxicity. Recently, DOX-induced cardiotoxicity has been attributed to topoisomerase II (TOPII)-β expression and activity. In our ... -
Functional characterization of human myosin-binding protein C3 variants associated with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy reveals exon-specific cardiac phenotypes in zebrafish model
Da'as, Sahar I.; Yalcin, Huseyin C.; Nasrallah, Gheyath K.; Mohamed, Iman A.; Nomikos, Michail; Yacoub, Magdi H.; Fakhro, Khalid A.... more authors ... less authors ( Wiley , 2020 , Article)© 2020 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Myosin-binding protein C 3 (MYBPC3) variants are the most common cause of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). HCM is a complex cardiac disorder due to its significant genetic and clinical ... -
Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy involves activation of p90 ribosomal S6 Kinase
Jaballah, Maiy; Mohamed, Iman A.; Alemrayat, Bayan; Al-Sulaiti, Fatima; Mlih, Mohamed; Mraiche, Fatima... more authors ... less authors ( Public Library of Science , 2015 , Article)Studies using pharmacological and genetic approaches have shown that increased activity/expression of the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) play a critical role in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy. Despite the ... -
Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 induced osteopontin expression in cardiomyocytes involves NFAT3/Gata4
Mlih, Mohamed; Abdulrahman, Nabeel; Gadeau, Alain-Pierre; Mohamed, Iman A.; Jaballah, Maiy; Mraiche, Fatima... more authors ... less authors ( Springer-Verlag , 2015 , Article)Osteopontin (OPN), a multifunctional glycophosphoprotein, has been reported to contribute to the development and progression of cardiac remodeling and hypertrophy. Cardiac-specific OPN knockout mice were protected against ... -
Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1-induced osteopontin expression facilitates cardiomyocyte hypertrophy
Mohamed, Iman A.; Gadeau, Alain-Pierre; Fliegel, Larry; Lopaschuk, Gary; Mlih, Mohamed; Abdulrahman, Nabeel; Fillmore, Natasha; Mraiche, Fatima... more authors ... less authors ( Public Library of Science , 2015 , Article)Enhanced expression and activity of the Na+/H+ exchanger isoform 1 (NHE1) has been implicated in cardiomyocyte hypertrophy in various experimental models. The upregulation of NHE1 was correlated with an increase in osteopontin ... -
The Role of Cardiac Myosin Binding Protein C3 in Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy- Progress and Novel Therapeutic Opportunities
Mohamed, Iman A.; Krishnamoorthy, Navaneethakrishnan T.; Nasrallah, Gheyath K.; Da'as, Sahar ( Wiley , 2016 , Article)Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common autosomal dominant genetic cardiovascular disorder marked by genetic and phenotypic heterogeneity. Mutations in the gene encodes the cardiac myosin-binding protein C, cMYBPC3 ... -
Targeting Osteopontin, the Silent Partner of Na+/H+ Exchanger Isoform 1 in Cardiac Remodeling
Mohamed, Iman A.; Mraiche, Fatima ( Wiley Periodicals, Inc. , 2015 , Article)Cardiac hypertrophy (CH), characterized by the enlargement of cardiomyocytes, fibrosis and apoptosis, contributes to cardiac remodeling, which if left unresolved results in heart failure. Understanding the signaling pathways ... -
