Left ventricular torsional mechanics and myocardial iron load in beta-thalassaemia major: a potential role of titin degradation
BACKGROUND: Iron may damage sarcomeric proteins through oxidative stress. We explored the left ventricular (LV) torsional mechanics in patients with beta-thalassaemia major and its relationship to myocardial iron load. Using HL-1 cell and B6D2F1 mouse models, we further determined the impact of iron...
