Determining properties of human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocytes using spatially resolved electromechanical metrics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend In this study, we use human‐induced pluripotent stem cell‐derived cardiomyocyte (hiPSC‐CM) experiments and computational modelling to identify the mechanism of action of drug compounds. In the hiPSC‐CM experiments, optical measurements of cell collections are recorded in the baseline case and after drug exposure.

Elucidating the cellular determinants of the end‐systolic pressure‐volume relationship of the heart via computational modelling

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Using a multiscale computational model of left ventricular electromechanics, we investigated how sarcomere dynamics influence the end‐systolic pressure‐volume (ESPV) relationship in ejecting beats compared to isovolumetric beats.

Blebbistatin reduces calcium buffering in cardiomyocytes: Consequences for cellular electrophysiology

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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+

Angiotensin‐converting enzyme and exercise adaptations: Genetic variability, pharmacological modulation and future directions

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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).

Metabolite‐sensitive cross‐bridge models of human atria reveal the impact of diabetes on muscle mechanoenergetics

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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 ...

Antioxidant supplementation blunts the proteome response to 3 weeks of sprint interval training preferentially in human type 2 muscle fibres

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
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
