However, before terminal withdrawal from the cell cycle, cardiomyocytes undergo another round of cell cycle during early postnatal life in mice. While a transient wave of increased DNA synthesis in cardiomyocyte has been observed in postnatal mouse hearts, the molecular mechanisms describing cardiomyocyte cell cycle re-entry remain poorly understood. Atrial and B-type natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) are abundantly expressed in embryonic heart ventricles. After birth, the expression of both genes is strongly reduced in the ventricular myocardium. Forkhead O (FOXO) transcription factors are expressed in both embryonic and postnatal heart ventricles. Their transcriptional activity negatively affects cardiomyocyte proliferation. Upon phosphorylation, FOXO is translocated to the cytoplasm and is transcriptionally inactive. Despite these important findings, it remains largely unknown whether natriuret natriuretic peptide and DN-FOXO on promoting cardiomyocyte cell cycle activity and mouse cardiac repair and regeneration after injury. Our data demonstrate the cooperative effects of natriuretic peptide and DN-FOXO on promoting cardiomyocyte cell cycle activity and mouse cardiac repair and regeneration after injury. Amiodarone is an antiarrhythmic drug that has been recognized to induce hepatotoxicity. We report a case of acute-on-chronic liver failure (ACLF) in a patient who was receiving amiodarone for more than 2years. The patient developed cirrhosis and suppurative microabscesses of the liver and died of progressive liver failure. A 69-year-old woman with risk factors for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) was treated with oral amiodarone at a daily dose of 400mg for more than 2years, until she developed epigastralgia and vomiting. Initial laboratory findings included leukocytosis and elevated liver enzy
