Dantrolene prevents hepatic steatosis by reducing cytoplasmic Ca2+ level and ER stress
Introduction: Our previous studies demonstrated that dantrolene, a ryanodine receptor stabilizer, prevents endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress in the heart.

Malignant hyperthermia when dantrolene is not readily available
Background Malignant hyperthermia is a rare but life-threatening pharmacogenetic muscle disorder characterized by abnormal hypermetabolic reactions and commonly triggered in susceptible individuals by volatile anesthetics or succinylcholine, or both ...

Ryanodine receptors (RyRs), the intracellular Ca2+ release channels, are expressed in T lymphocytes and other types of immune cells. Modulation of RyRs has been shown to affect T cell functions in vitro and immune responses in vivo.

The effect of long-term oral dantrolene on the neuromuscular action of rocuronium: a case report [PDF]
Oral dantrolene causes a dose-dependent depression of skeletal muscle contractility. A 52-year-old man treated with oral dantrolene for spasticity after spinal cord injury was scheduled to undergo irrigation and drainage of a thigh abscess under general ...

Background: Cardiac ryanodine receptor 2 (RyR2) dysfunction and elevated diastolic Ca2+ leak have been linked to arrhythmogenesis not only in inherited arrhythmia syndromes but also in acquired forms of heart disease including heart failure (HF) and ...

Hyperthermia and neurological catastrophe: An interesting case report
Fever is a common symptom encountered in clinical practice. Hyperthermia, though infrequently encountered, can be genetical (malignant hyperthermia) or acquired when the body temperature rises beyond a certain set point that is controlled by the ...

Dantrolene : From Malignant Hyperthermia to Alzheimer's Disease.
Dantrolene, a ryanodine receptor antagonist, is primarily known as the only clinically acceptable and effective treatment for malignant hyperthermia (MH). Inhibition of ryanodine receptor (RyR) by dantrolene decrease the abnormal calcium release from the

Dantrolene enhances the protective effect of hypothermia on cerebral cortex neurons
Therapeutic hypothermia is the most promising non-pharmacological neuroprotective strategy against ischemic injury. However, shivering is the most common adverse reaction. Many studies have shown that dantrolene is neuroprotective in in vitro and in vivo

A case of malignant hyperthermia during anesthesia induction with sevoflurane -A case report- [PDF]
We experienced a case of malignant hyperthermia (MH) in 6-year-old boy during anesthesia induction for strabismus surgery. It has been generally reported that sevoflurane can induce the delayed onset of MH in the absence of succinylcholine.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) is caused by mutations in DMD, resulting in loss of dystrophin, which is essential to muscle health. DMD “exon skipping” uses anti-sense oligo-nucleotides (AONs) to force specific exon exclusion during mRNA processing to
