CaMKII-dependent regulation of cardiac Na(+) homeostasis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Na(+) homeostasis is a key regulator of cardiac excitation and contraction. The cardiac voltage-gated Na(+) channel, NaV1.5, critically controls cell excitability, and altered channel gating has been implicated in both inherited and acquired arrhythmias.

An open‐label, single‐arm, dose‐escalating concentration–QT study to investigate the cardiac effects and safety of paroxetine in healthy adults

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Aims Paroxetine is a selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI), approved for treatment of major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders. Some SSRIs are known to prolong the QT interval; however, clinical evidence to establish a lack of association between paroxetine and corrected QT interval (QTc) prolongation is limited. Therefore, this
