A PKB-SPEG signaling nexus links insulin resistance with diabetic cardiomyopathy by regulating calcium homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Diabetic cardiomyopathy is a progressive disease in diabetic patients, and myocardial insulin resistance contributes to its pathogenesis through incompletely-defined mechanisms.

Role of Mitophagy in Coronary Heart Disease: Targeting the Mitochondrial Dysfunction and Inflammatory Regulation

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Coronary heart disease (CHD) is one of the main causes of death worldwide. In the past few decades, several in-depth research on the pathological mechanisms and effective treatment methods for CHD have been conducted.

Antisense-mediated exon skipping: a therapeutic strategy for titin-based dilated cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Frameshift mutations in the TTN gene encoding titin are a major cause for inherited forms of dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), a heart disease characterized by ventricular dilatation, systolic dysfunction, and progressive heart failure. To date, there are no

Heat Shock Protein 20 (HSP20) is a novel substrate for Protein Kinase D1 (PKD1) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Heat shock protein 20 (HSP20) has cardioprotective qualities, which are triggered by PKA phosphorylation. PKD1 is also a binding partner for HSP20, and this prompted us to investigate whether the chaperone was a substrate for PKD1.

FBPase is in the nuclei of cardiomyocytes [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2003
Intracellular localization of FBPase in the cardiac muscle of the pig was studied by immunohistochemistry. In contrast to data from skeletal muscle [Gizak, A., Rakus, D. and Dzugaj, A. (2003) Histol. Histopathol. 18, 135–142], in cardiomyocytes FBPase was present not only in the cytoplasm, but surprisingly, also in the nucleus.

Protein phosphatase 5 regulates titin phosphorylation and function at a sarcomere-associated mechanosensor complex in cardiomyocytes. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Serine/threonine protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) is ubiquitously expressed in eukaryotic cells; however, its function in cardiomyocytes is unknown. Under basal conditions, PP5 is autoinhibited, but enzymatic activity rises upon binding of specific factors ...

The Regulator of G Protein Signaling Homologous Domain of G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 2 Mediates Short-Term Desensitization of β3-Adrenergic Receptor

open access: yesFrontiers in Pharmacology, 2020
G protein coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) are key regulators of GPCR signaling. Canonical mechanism of GPCR desensitization involves receptor phosphorylation by GRKs followed by arrestin recruitment and uncoupling from heterotrimeric G protein ...

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

open access: yesFrontiers 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

Interval training normalizes cCardiomyocyte function, diastolic Ca2+ control, and SR Ca2+ release synchronicity in a mouse model of diabetic cardiomyopathy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In the present study we explored the mechanisms behind excitation-contraction (EC)-coupling defects in cardiomyocytes from mice with type-2 diabetes (db/db), and determined whether 13-weeks of aerobic interval training could restore cardiomyocyte Ca2 ...
