Cardiac adrenergic control and atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common cardiac arrhythmia, and it causes substantial mortality. The autonomic nervous system, and particularly the adrenergic/cholinergic balance, has a profound influence on the occurrence of AF ...

Nitric oxide-dependent activation of CaMKII increases diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release in cardiac myocytes in response to adrenergic stimulation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Spontaneous calcium waves in cardiac myocytes are caused by diastolic sarcoplasmic reticulum release (SR Ca(2+) leak) through ryanodine receptors.

Glycyrrhetic acid synergistically enhances β₂-adrenergic receptor-Gs signaling by changing the location of Gαs in lipid rafts. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Glycyrrhetic acid (GA) exerts synergistic anti-asthmatic effects via a β₂-adrenergic receptor (β₂AR)-mediated pathway. Cholesterol is an important component of the structure and function of lipid rafts, which play critical roles in the β₂AR-Gs-adenylate ...

Inhibition of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase by polyanions.

open access: yesThe Journal of biological chemistry, 1989
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase, which specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied beta-adrenergic receptor, is strongly inhibited by polyanions. Heparin and dextran sulfate inhibit the enzyme with an IC50 of approximately 0.15 microM. De-N-sulfated heparin is approximately 8-fold less potent.

Phosphorylation and Activation of β-Adrenergic Receptor Kinase by Protein Kinase C [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
The aim of this study was to test the possible modification of beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta ARK) activity by second messengers and/or their downstream components. Using human mononuclear leukocytes (MNL), we found that calcium ionophores could elevate beta ARK activity by about 80% in a protein kinase C (PKC)-dependent manner.

ROLE OF SUSTAINED SYMPATHETIC OVERACTIVATION IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF STRUCTURAL AND FUNCTIONAL MYOCARDIAL CHANGES IN HEART FAILURE

open access: yesКубанский научный медицинский вестник, 2018
Heart failure is associated with profound sympathetic overactivation, which initially develops as an adaptive effect that supports cardiac contractile function.

Accumulation of Carbonyl Proteins in the Brain of Mouse Model for Methylglyoxal Detoxification Deficits

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2021

Purification and characterization of the beta-adrenergic receptor kinase.

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1987
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta-ARK) is a recently discovered enzyme which specifically phosphorylates the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic receptor (beta-AR) as well as the light-bleached form of rhodopsin. beta-ARK is present in a wide variety of mammalian tissues.

Beta 2 adrenergic receptor and mu opioid receptor interact to potentiate the aggressiveness of human breast cancer cell by activating the glycogen synthase kinase 3 signaling

open access: yesBreast Cancer Research, 2022
Background Opioid and beta-adrenergic receptors are recently shown to cross talk via formation of receptor heterodimers to control the growth and proliferation of breast cancer cells.

Beta-adrenergic receptor kinase: primary structure delineates a multigene family. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
The beta-adrenergic receptor kinase (beta-ARK), which specifically phosphorylates only the agonist-occupied form of the beta-adrenergic and closely related receptors, appears to be important in mediating rapid agonist-specific (homologous ...
