TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains in the regulation of vascular function
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of TMEM16A channel signalling microdomains. Calcium influx or calcium release from the endoplasmic/sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR) activates TMEM16A channels through interactions with regulatory proteins in vascular smooth muscle cells or endothelial cells. TMEM16A channel activation drives chloride efflux,

Update on cellular expression and function of ANO1 channels in urethral smooth muscle
Abstract figure legend Activation of ANO1 channels and resulting Cl− efflux are suggested to modulate urethral smooth muscle contractility by enhancing Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ entry and resulting contraction in urethral smooth muscle cells.

Cannabinoid exposure during pregnancy: Cardiorespiratory effects and offspring outcomes
Abstract figure legend Prenatal exposure to cannabinoids has been investigated across human and animal studies to understand its impact on physiological development. Evidence suggests that early‐life cannabinoid exposure influence multiple developmental processes, extending beyond neurodevelopmental outcomes to potentially affect placental function ...

Potential health benefits of cold‐water immersion: the central role of PGC‐1α
Abstract figure legend Cold‐water immersion (CWI) elicits autonomic, somato‐motoric (shivering thermogenesis), endocrine and metabolic, sensory transduction, and local biophysical effects that may converge on the transcriptional co‐activator PGC‐1α (centre).

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

Abstract figure legend Schematic diagram illustrating the proposed pathway in which regulatory defects might occur in sympathetic neurons derived from hiPSC in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT). Specifically, enhanced calcium transients appeared to derive from three sources: enhanced membrane excitability (due to loss of ...

Innate Lymphoid Cells in Tissue Homeostasis and Diseases
Innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) are a heterogeneous group of immune cells with phenotypic and functional plasticity. ILCs dynamically regulate various immune cell types and play a crucial role in the pathophysiological processes of specific organs during sepsis. Targeting ILCs is a promising strategy for treating sepsis.

Myocardial toxicity in two dogs with natural exposure to ractopamine
Abstract Two dogs that lived in a farm setting were presented to the Texas A&M University Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital's Emergency Service exhibiting muscle tremors and ventricular arrhythmias following ingestion of ractopamine, a ß‐2 agonist feed‐additive used in beef cattle, pigs and turkeys intended for slaughter to increase muscle mass.
