Inhibitory effect of oestradiol on the cardiac KV7.1/KCNE1 channel is species dependent
Abstract Oestradiol (17β‐E2) is reported to prolong the cardiac action potential duration and QT interval, in part by affecting cardiac ion channels. Previous studies found inhibiting 17β‐E2 effects on the repolarizating cardiac KV7.1/KCNE1 channel, or its native current, in heterologous expression systems or tissue from animal species.

Structure mirroring function: What's the ‘matter’ with the funny current?
Abstract figure legend The ‘funny’ (If) current of cardiac pacemaker cells has been first identified in the late 1970s as a major mechanism in the generation and control of cardiac pacemaking. Decades of studies have since described the properties of the funny current and of its molecular components, HCN channels, in the heart and brain, providing the ...

A QUANTUM CHEMICAL STUDY OF THE CONFORMATION OF ALINIDINE A NEW ANTIARRHYTHMIC AGENT [PDF]
The conformation of alinidine a new and specific bradycardic agent was studied using MNDO method. It has been found that the rotation of both phenyl and imidazoline ring of this compound is restricted.

Abstract figure legend Sex‐specific models of the human atrial myocyte in normal sinus rhythm (nSR) and chronic atrial fibrillation (cAF) revealed increased alternans susceptibility in cAF males and DADs in females, driven primarily by ICaL and ryanodine receptor remodelling.
