The scent of emotions: A systematic review of human intra‐ and interspecific chemical communication of emotions

open access: yesBrain and Behavior, 2020
Objective The sense of olfaction has been considered of minor importance in human communication. In recent years, evidence has emerged that humans might be influenced by unconscious messages sent through chemosignals in body odors.

Impairment of β-adrenergic regulation and exacerbation of pressure-induced heart failure in mice with mutations in phosphoregulatory sites in the cardiac CaV1.2 calcium channel

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2023
The cardiac calcium channel CaV1.2 conducts L-type calcium currents that initiate excitation-contraction coupling and serves as a crucial mediator of β-adrenergic regulation of the heart.

Aversive emotion rapidly activates orexin neurons and increases heart rate in freely moving mice

open access: yesMolecular Brain, 2021
The perifornical area of the hypothalamus has been known as the center for the defense response, or fight-or-flight response, which is characterized by a concomitant rise in arterial blood pressure, heart rate, and respiratory frequency.

Structures of PKA–phospholamban complexes reveal a mechanism of familial dilated cardiomyopathy

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Several mutations identified in phospholamban (PLN) have been linked to familial dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure, yet the underlying molecular mechanism remains controversial.

A-Kinase Anchoring Proteins in Cardiac Myocytes and Their Roles in Regulating Calcium Cycling

open access: yesCells, 2023
The rate of calcium cycling and calcium transient amplitude are critical determinants for the efficient contraction and relaxation of the heart. Calcium-handling proteins in the cardiac myocyte are altered in heart failure, and restoring the proper ...

The Popeye Domain Containing Genes and cAMP Signaling

open access: yesJournal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 2014
3'-5'-cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) is a second messenger, which plays an important role in the heart. It is generated in response to activation of G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).
