SGCB and aortic valve stenosis: This study aimed to investigate the effects of DM on the left ventricle in AS patients, specifically focusing on the inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and their implications for cardiomyocyte function, titin phosphorylation, and the nitric oxide (NO)-soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC)-cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)-protein kinase G (PKG) signaling pathway.
