Abstract
Heart failure (HF) is a condition with high mortality worldwide characterized by persistent progression. Myocardial hypertrophy is a dominant feature during the early stage of HF. The development of HF is a complex process related to a series of physiologic and molecular factors. Although the treatment of HF has been changed during the past century, the knowledge on its molecular mechanism is still very limited. The review herein tries to touch the molecular basis underlying HF and discusses the relevance between HF and other diseases such as thrombosis. Furthermore, we believe that the global alterations during progression of HF revealed by high content screening techniques may facilitate our understanding on HF, and thereby the development of new therapeutics with less side effect.
Keywords: Extracellular matrix, heart failure, integrin, myocardial hypertrophy, signaling pathway, and thrombosis.

Nutrition and Metabolism in Musculoskeletal Diseases
The musculoskeletal system consists mainly of cartilage, bone, muscles, tendons, connective tissue and ligaments. Balanced metabolism is of vital importance for the homeostasis of the musculoskeletal system. A series of musculoskeletal diseases (for example, sarcopenia, osteoporosis) are resulted from the dysregulated metabolism of the musculoskeletal system. Furthermore, metabolic diseases (such ...read more
Protein Folding, Aggregation and Liquid-Liquid Phase Separation
Protein folding, misfolding and aggregation remain one of the main problems of interdisciplinary science not only because many questions are still open, but also because they are important from the point of view of practical application. Protein aggregation and formation of fibrillar structures, for example, is a hallmark of a ...read more
