The β2-Subunit of Voltage-Gated Calcium Channels Regulates Cardiomyocyte Hypertrophy

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
L-type voltage-gated calcium channels (LTCCs) regulate crucial physiological processes in the heart. They are composed of the Cavα1 pore-forming subunit and the accessory subunits Cavβ, Cavα2δ, and Cavγ. Cavβ is a cytosolic protein that regulates channel

Critical Roles of Calpastatin in Ischemia/Reperfusion Injury in Aged Livers

Cells, 2021
Ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury unavoidably occurs during hepatic resection and transplantation. Aged livers poorly tolerate I/R during surgical treatment.

Is the expression of [-G93A(+)] human SOD1 a model to study neurodegenerations?

Journal of Biological Research, 2011
To relate the alterations occurring in neurodegenerations with Ca2+ homeostasis dysregulation, we analyzed the functional properties of the Ca2+-dependent calpain/calpastatin system in neuronal cells of transgenic mice overexpressing human mutated -G93A(+

Calpastatin Subdomains A and C Are Activators of Calpain [PDF]

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2002
The inhibitory domains of calpastatin contain three highly conserved regions, A, B, and C, of which A and C bind calpain in a strictly Ca(2+)-dependent manner but have no inhibitory activity whereas region B inhibits calpain on its own. We synthesized the 19-mer oligopeptides corresponding to regions A and C of human calpastatin domain I and tested ...

The calpastatin-derived calpain inhibitor CP1B reduces mRNA expression of matrix metalloproteinase-2 and-9 and invasion by leukemic THP-1 cells [PDF]

, 2003
The ubiquitous proteases μ- and m-calpain are Ca2+-dependent cysteine endopeptidases. Besides involvement in a variety of physio(patho)logical processes, recent studies suggest a pivotal role of calpains in differentiation of hematopoietic cells and ...
