Atrial APD prolongation caused by the upregulation of RAGE and subsequent INaL increase in diabetic patients

open access: yesActa Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a risk factor for the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). The action potential duration (APD) has been demonstrated to be prolonged in the atrium of diabetic mice. In contrast, the APD is generally shortened in AF patients.

Isoproterenol antagonizes drug-induced prolongation of action potential duration in humans

open access: yes, 1993
The effects of an isoproterenol infusion on the duration of the human right ventricular endocardial monophasic action potential at 90% repolarization were recorded in the absence and in the presence of an antiarrhythmic drag regimen containing class III

Nutrient/TOR signaling controls adipose mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) to regulate organismal growth in Drosophila

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Animals must match their growth rate to available nutrients. We show that in Drosophila larvae, the nutrient‐sensing TOR kinase controls growth by regulating levels of TFAM, a key regulator of mitochondrial function, in the adipose tissue. When nutrients are abundant, high TOR activity suppresses TFAM, lowering mitochondrial bioenergetic activity and ...

Lipopolysaccharide prolongs action potential duration in HL-1 mouse cardiomyocytes.

open access: yesAm J Physiol Cell Physiol, 2012
Sepsis has deleterious effects on cardiac function including reduced contractility. We have shown previously that lipopolysaccharides (LPS) directly affect HL-1 cardiac myocytes by inhibiting Ca2+ regulation and by impairing pacemaker funny current, If.

Action potential duration (90), action potential amplitude, and resting membrane potential during simulated reperfusion.

open access: yes, 2012
The evolution of action potential duration (90) () (A), action potential amplitude (APA) (B), and resting membrane potential (RMP) (C) throughout reperfusion are shown for the subset of simulations shown in Fig. 3.

Do KATP channels open as a prominent and early feature during ischaemia in the Langendorff-perfused rat heart? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
The objective was to investigate whether myocardial adenosine triphosphate-sensitive K<sup>+</sup> (K<sub>ATP</sub>) channels open during the first 10 min of regional ischaemia in Langendorff-perfused rat hearts.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

The Impact of the Potential Duration of Unemployment Benefits on the Duration of Unemployment [PDF]

open access: yes
This paper uses two data sets to examine the impact of the potential duration of unemployment insurance (UI) benefits on the duration of unemployment and the time pattern of the escape rate from unemployment in the United States.

Oscillations of conduction, action potential duration, and refractoriness. A mechanism for spontaneous termination of reentrant tachycardias.

open access: yes, 1988
The mechanism of cycle length oscillation and its role in spontaneous termination of reentry was studied in an in vitro preparation of canine atrial tissue surrounding the tricuspid orifice.

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses
