The first, robust, clinically relevant murine model of Trypanosoma brucei-induced myocarditis and cardiac dysfunction. Resulting from a great collaboration between our team @hopkinsheart and @MonicaMugnier from @JohnsHopkinsSPH . https://t.co/7HLoQxLGm9
The Blue Whale possesses the largest heart on Earth, composed of four equally massed chambers. It pumps oxygen to all parts of its colossal body every 10 seconds. This magnificent creature, surpassing the size of any dinosaur, boasts a weight ranging from 100 to 150 tons, akin to approximately 340 elephants or the dimensions of a 10-story building. With a massive 30-meter length, it relies on its substantial heart, weighing approximately 180 kilograms, to fuel its immense body.
The heart of the Blue Whale, characterized by its four equally proportioned chambers, efficiently circulates oxygen, propelling 220 liters of blood throughout its vast frame. Remarkably, its heartbeats resound audibly up to 3 kilometers away when detected by sonar devices. However, the intrigue extends beyond audibility.
While at the water's surface, the Blue Whale's heart typically beats at a rate of 25 to 35 beats per minute. Nevertheless, during deep-sea dives for sustenance, its heart rate can plummet to a mere 4 to 8 beats per minute. This adaptation enables the Blue Whale to reduce its heart's strain while ensuring the even distribution of blood, even in the frigid depths of the ocean.
Very happy to see our work finally in print 🥳😊😀Learn more how aging and senescent cells impairs nerve functions in the heart

Thanks to the entire teams particularly @JulianW27954793 and our great collaborators @dzhk_germany@CPI_ExStra
Ageing can be quite nerve-wracking! This is especially true for the old heart. See my very first Science paper to learn more! 😎

Not all novels should be, or could be, as playful as this one, Dave Eggers writes, "but it wouldn’t hurt to have a few more that allow humans—characters, readers, authors even—to laugh."
