Abstract figure legend Blebbistatin reduces Ca2+ buffering in induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived atrial cardiomyocytes. Blebbistatin, a widely used excitation–contraction uncoupling agent, decreases calcium (Ca2+) buffer affinity (increased buffer dissociation constant), leading to elevated diastolic Ca2+ levels, increased sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+

Abstract figure legend ACE I/D genotype, enzyme activity and integrated physiological adaptations. Upper panel: Conceptual framework linking the ACE I/D polymorphism (left) with circulating/tissue ACE activity (centre; violin plots based on hypothetical data for illustration) and strength/power versus endurance phenotypes (right).

Insights from electromechanical simulations to assess omecamtiv mecarbil efficacy in heart failure
Abstract figure legend Impact of Omecamtiv Mecarbil (OM) on in‐silico models of heart failure. A mathematical electromechanical model of human ventricular tissue is used to simulate the effects of OM in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF).

Abstract figure legend In this study, we used mathematical modelling to explore the effect of diabetes on muscle mechanoenergetics. Our parameterisation of cross‐bridge models using data from non‐diabetic and diabetic human atrial tissues revealed lower values for cross‐bridge stiffness, detachment rates, attachment rates and lower ATP sensitivity in ...

Abstract figure legend A study described in this paper describes a new tool for hiPSC‐CM electromechanical behaviour simulations using mathematical modelling. The model enables in silico assays making drug testing quick, comprehensive and accurate. New hiPSC‐CM models can be used as a platform to integrate in vitro and in silico findings.

Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session

Unique Contractile and Structural Protein Expression in Dog Ileal Inner Circular Smooth Muscle [PDF]
This study was designed to test the hypothesis that there is heterogeneous expression of contractile and structural proteins between the smooth muscle cells (SMCs) in the inner and outer circular muscle (ICM and OCM) layers of the ileum ...

Deciphering pro‐arrhythmogenic mechanisms of EPAC in human atrial cardiomyocytes
Abstract figure legend This study aimed to investigate the effect of exchange proteins directly activated by cAMP (EPAC) on the regulation of human atrial cardiomyocyte electrophysiology and their potential involvement in the onset of atrial fibrillation (AF).

Modulation of contractility in human cardiac hypertrophy by myosin essential light chain isoforms [PDF]
Cardiac hypertrophy is an adaptive response that normalizes wall stress and compensates for increased workload. It is accompanied by distinct qualitative and quantitative changes in the expression of protein isoforms concerning contractility ...
