Role of lactylation-related genes in heatstroke-induced ventricular arrhythmias by integrated transcriptomic and proteomic analysis and experimental validation
This study investigates the molecular mechanisms linking heatstroke to cardiac injury and ventricular arrhythmias in rats. Researchers found that increased protein lactylation and specific gene expression changes are associated with heart complications during heatstroke.
Why it matters
Understanding the biological pathways of heatstroke-induced cardiac damage could lead to better clinical interventions for heat-related illnesses.
