Delighted to welcome these three new stars to our faculty: Stephen Nageotte and Mark Sklansky to our congenital heart program, and Eli Friedman to lead #SportsCardiology!
For the 12th year in a row, @smidtheart.bsky.social has been ranked #1 in California for Cardiology, Heart, and Vascular Surgery by @usnews.com!

Fascinating @smidtheart.bsky.social research seminar by Farah Sheikh of @ucsandiego.bsky.social on #ARVC— #BenchToBedside journey towards AAV gene therapy with PKP2, now in clinical trials!
Our lab hosts a few select UCLA #undergraduates as #interns. One of our stellar interns, working with #postdoc Junlang Li, just presented her work at the Undergraduate Research & Creativity Showcase— #EVs from #iPSCs— check it out!

@eduardomarban.bsky.social & team discover the long non-coding RNA BCYRN1 contained in extracellular vesicles from cardiosphere-derived cells modulates Tregs and reduces damage in a mouse heart-attack model: buff.ly/n1q0Bac

Pleased to share our paper: #EVs released from #heart #postMI travel to #brain and cause #neuroinflammation, underlying #depression. Work of Ke Liao, PhD
ahajournals.org/doi/epub/10.11…
Wonderful Research In Progress update by NIH T32 Fellow, Jonah Zarrow, on developing novel #ncRNA drugs for #Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Important work for #DMD!

Great #Breakout #Session at Cedars Sinai Faculty Retreat #NewTherapies from #Concept to #Clinic
Fantastic panel ➡️ Dr. Eduardo Marban @eduardomarban.bsky.social describing his pathway to #clinic #CDCs followed by Dr. Anand Karumanchi going over his experiences towards #translation #regulatorypathways
Brilliant @smidtheart.bsky.social research seminar by Rajan Sah MD PhD of Washington University on SWELL channels and their role in #platelet #thrombosis. Big implications for therapeutics of #MI and #stroke.
#CardioSky
Provocative @smidtheart.bsky.social #cardiology grand rounds by Rita Redberg who highlights the low bar set for @fda.gov approval of medical devices. Hard clinical endpoints in adequately powered trials sorely lacking. No wonder investors prefer devices over drugs or novel biological therapies!
Inspiring start to Cedars Sinai’s academic retreat by Shlomo Melmed, MD, who emphasizes how our unique structure enables progress towards science-based clinical innovation.
New discoveries abound in @ahmedgibrahim.bsky.social as evidenced today by #labmeeting on #EVs and #ncRNAs from genetically engineered #fibroblasts that pulled a Jekyll and Hyde, becoming salutary post- #MI. Great work of Hiroaki Komuro!
#CardioSky
Let's get #ACC25 started!
⬇️Check out the agenda and don't miss hearing from @smidtheart.bsky.social!
Follow us all weekend for highlights!
@accintouch.bsky.social
Recent paper published in @jclinical-invest.bsky.social from @eduardomarban.bsky.social & Ke Liao finds a #ncRNA that enhances #Treg cells that could potentially repair heart muscle damage after a #HeartAttack & be applied to a variety of inflammatory disorders.
www.cedars-sinai.org/newsroom/pre...
Check out the in-press preview of our @jclinicalinvest paper on regulatory #Tcells — we discovered a #ncRNA that can enhance #Treg dynamics fast enough to improve #MI healing in vivo. New hope for refractory inflammatory and immune conditions?

We’re ready for day 2 of the #HFpEFSummit listening in on sessions about exercise intolerance and the new and late breaking clinical trials!
Exciting day ahead!
@russellrogers.bsky.social discussed experiments w/Lefer Lab taking advantage of the mechanistic differences between #GLP1RA & #ncRNA #TY1 as therapeutics for #HFpEF. Compelling evidence for synergistic benefits in two rodent models! Potential for less skeletal muscle loss?
@smidtheart.bsky.social
The incomparable @mkittlesonmd.bsky.social teaches us that #HFpEF is a diagnosis of exclusion— rule out AS, HCM, pericardial constriction and, above all, #amyloidosis.
Pleased to share out latest work on cell therapy for #Duchenne. We show #deramiocel therapy initiated early protects against disease-related decline in muscle function.
@eduardomarban.bsky.social @smidtheart.bsky.social @stemcellreports.bsky.social @mda.org
Single nuclei #RNAseq of human #HFpEF heart biopsies by Virginia Hahn of @hopkinsheart.bsky.social reveals interesting #macrophage specific changes. Lots of provocative findings!
Great opening lecture by #HFpEF pioneer @dakheartguy.bsky.social on #sarcomere abnormalities— huge differences in #calcium activated force in #myocytes from obese vs morbidly obese patients. Clinical correlation less evident…
@smidtheart.bsky.social #CardioSky
The final agenda is up!
We can't wait to see you tomorrow.
Follow us Thursday and Friday for meeting highlights!
#HFpEF
We are less than 3 weeks away from the start of the #HFpEF Conference! There's still a few spots left, grab your seat now.

On #RareDiseaseDay, we honor the families who are fighting for a cure.
#DuchenneMD, a disease that weakens muscles & affects the heart. Research led by @eduardomarban.bsky.social offers hope through #CellTherapy slowing #HF. This breakthrough may extend lives & change futures.
