Recent animal studies showed T cells have a direct pathogenic role in the development of heart failure (HF). However, which subsets of T cells contribute to human HF pathogenesis and progression remains unclear. We characterized immunologic properties of various subsets of T cells and their clinical implications in human HF. Thirty-eight consecutive patients with newly diagnosed acute HF (21 males, mean age 66 ± 16 years) and 38 healthy control subjects (21 males, mean age 62 ± 12 years) were enrolled. ...

In Brief Background This study aimed to evaluate risk factors and postoperative clinical outcome associated with myocardial injury detected by an elevated high-sensitivity cardiac troponin I (hs-cTnI) immediately after living donor liver transplantation (LDLT). Methods Between January 2011 and December 2016, 313 adult recipients undergoing LDLT, with normal preoperative hs-cTnI were selected. Hs-cTnI level above 0.04 ng/mL according to 99th percentile reference limit was defined as myocardial injury. ...

Lactarius and Lactifluus are milkcaps that are characterized by the secretion of latex. These two genera are part of a globally distributed cosmopolitan group of ectomycorrhizal fungi that is an important food resource in various ecosystems. Recently, the taxonomy of Lactarius and Lactifluus has been revised based on molecular phylogenetics. Despite the importance of these taxa, Korean species of both genera are poorly understood. In an effort to describe milkcap species that are indigenous to Korea, ...
