UAB Pathology researchers have found that resolved high blood sugar levels can still lead to long-term cardiac stress in a recently published paper in the Journal of the American Heart Association. @AdamWende @SamuelFChang @CardioMyocyteHa Read more: bit.ly/4AZbQQF

Happy to report we have published a new study on "O-GlcNAc Memory". We hope that the findings will provide insight into the mechanism behind increased susceptibility to heart failure in patients with diabetes. ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/…

Meet Mahima Reddy, a Ph.D. candidate in the @AdamWende Lab in @UABPathology. Her research focuses on O-GlcNAc-driven cardiac remodeling, which is similar to the cardiac pathology seen in diabetes-related heart failure. Read more: go.uab.edu/ucdcmahimareddy

That time of year again, SHVM is just around the corner. This year in Osaka, Japan with an outstanding lineup of speakers. If interested in anything @cardiovascular and @metabolism register and submit your abstract today! shvm2026.azuleon.org/

Made it to this meeting a couple years ago and it was outstanding. I highly recommend it if interested in transcriptional regulation. Especially by KLF and SP family members! eveeno.com/321130283

Excited about our new publication in Epigenetics defining a model to test glycemic memory and the potential role of glucose as a signaling molecule to lead to sustained susceptibility to exacerbated remodeling in response to subsequent pressure overload. tandfonline.com/doi/10.1080/…

There are only a few meetings I like to attend. However, those from the KSoLA in Korea have always been a favorite. Please consider attending if you can! file:///Users/arwende/Library/Containers/com.microsoft.Outlook/Data/tmp/Outlook%20Temp/22nd_DAWAS%20Newsletter.html

Congratulations for another marker passed in your career. Very happy to see all that you've accomplished and eager to see what the next "mile" brings you!
Another big day for the Pepins! Big thanks to @BrighamMedRes for the training, friendships, mentors, and incredible patients. Moving westward isn’t “goodbye,” but perhaps just a longer commute from @StanCVFellows.

One final shout out to @LukeSkyrunner, a large dose of thanks for what he did for our group, and a prayer for the future I know he is going to make for himself in his new role as a bioinformatician! Please join me in congratulating Luke! @UABPathology @UAB_GBS

Happy to have hosted @AaronOlson15 for the @UABPathology Grand Rounds. He gave an outstanding talk on his O-GlcNAcylation & HBP work. Reminding us once again that it is not always glucose flux regulated and contexts in which it can be beneficial. And enjoyed great conversations!

Some of the most important contemporary work being done with LVADs. Bridge to recovery or delay of transplantation can mean many more years of life for some patients. @ISHLT #ISHLT2024 #LVAD #transplant @ReyentovichHFMD @JasonKatzMD
1/. Ten projects from “VAD WEAN” Cardiac Recovery Registry (50 sites worldwide, >600 HF pts) being presented @ #ISHLT2024. Exciting results: ⁃Long-term “Survival Free of VAD/Tx post-VAD weaning” equivalent to propensity matched “ISHLT Registry post-Transplant Survival”

Congratulations to my now former student Dr. Potter! Very proud of how @LukeSkyrunner defended his thesis in his private defense today. It was great having him in @TheWendeLab through his training and I wish him the best of luck as he starts his next stage as a bioinformatician!
