Small‐conductance Ca2⁺‐activated K⁺ channels in cardiac excitation–contraction coupling: Bridging mitochondria, sarcolemma and antiarrhythmic therapy

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondrial SK channel enhancement reduces cardiac arrhythmia trigger. Spontaneous sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release via hyperactive RyR2s underlies an increased arrhythmia trigger, promoting early and delayed afterdepolarizations during stress. Hyperactive RyR2s causes rise in cytosolic [Ca2+] during diastole. Clearance

Effects of Dofetilide and EGIS-7229, an Antiarrhythmic Agent Possessing Class III, IV, and IB Activities, on Myocardial Refractoriness in Hyperkalemia, Hypokalemia, and During β-Adrenergic Activation in the Rabbit Papillary Muscle In Vitro

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2006
.: Lengthening of the effective refractory period (ERP) by EGIS-7229, a class III/Ib/IV drug, and by dofetilide, a selective IKr blocker, was compared in normokalemia (NK), hypokalemia (LK), and hyperkalemia (HK) in right ventricular papillary muscles of

Selective RyR2 inhibition reduces arrhythmia susceptibility in human cardiac slices

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend ent‐Vert selectively inhibits RyR2‐mediated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ leak and prevents triggered activity in human cardiac slices. A, in human ventricular slices exposed to β‐adrenergic stimulation with Iso and RyR2 sensitization with caffeine, RyR2 channels become hyperactive, leading to Ca2+ sarcoplasmic leak and ...

Identifying Drugs Associated With Parkinson's Disease Risk Using Machine Learning

open access: yesBasic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Machine learning (ML)–based methods have been proposed as a potential approach for identifying candidate drugs to be repurposed as disease‐modifying treatments for Parkinson's disease (PD). We applied an ML‐based signal detection method to identify drugs associated with PD and evaluated the method's generalizability.

Refralon (niferidil) is a new class III antiarrhythmic agent for pharmacological cardioversion for persistent atrial fibrillation and atrial flutter

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2015
Aim. To evaluate the efficacy and safety of refralon (niferidil), a new class III antiarrhythmic agent whose activity is related to the block of delayed rectifying potassium current and to the prolongation of atrial and ventricular action potential and ...

Drug‐Induced QT Prolongation: Associations Between Risk Classifications in a Swedish Clinical Decision Support System and Clinical Outcomes

open access: yesClinical Pharmacology &Therapeutics, Volume 119, Issue 2, Page 503-513, February 2026.
Potential adverse drug events can be signaled in Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSSs). This study validated a Swedish CDSS (Janusmed Risk Profile) by investigating associations between calculated risk classifications of drugs with QT‐prolonging potential and registered related clinical outcomes.

Nutritional and Health Potential of Edible Seeds: Micronutrient Bioavailability and Mechanistic Insights

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Their bioactive constituents act through antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory, and metabolic‐regulating mechanisms, validating their classification as functional foods. Evidence from clinical and biochemical studies largely supports these benefits, although some claims stem from preliminary or in vitro findings.

Novel Echocardiographic Index for Risk Stratification of Ventricular Arrhythmias and Mortality Based on Right Ventricular Function

open access: yesJournal of Arrhythmia, Volume 42, Issue 1, February 2026.
Patients undergoing ICD implantation with both preprocedural echocardiography and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) were retrospectively analyzed to assess right ventricular (RV) function. Echocardiographic RV fractional area change (RVFAC) and the contraction pressure index (CPI), as well as CMR‐derived RV ejection fraction (RVEF), predicted ...
