Investigation of the Influence of hERG 1b on hERG Channel Pharmacology [PDF]
Biophysical Journal, 2013 hERG channels mediating the rapid delayed rectifier K+ current (IKr) are important for normal ventricular repolarization. In native cardiac tissues, hERG 1a subunit co-assembles with a subunit encoded by an alternate transcript, “ERG1b” which has a shorter N-terminus (1) and influences current kinetics (2).

Proton block of proton-activated TRPV1 current. [PDF]
, 2015 The TRPV1 cation channel is a polymodal nociceptor that is activated by heat and ligands such as capsaicin and is highly sensitive to changes in extracellular pH. In the body core, where temperature is usually stable and capsaicin is normally absent, H(+)

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend In silico trials were conducted in 654 virtual patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) to assess the cardioversion efficacy of three pharmacological treatments: single SK and K2P channel block and combined SK+K2P channel inhibition. Left: representative virtual AF patient with the atria inside the torso.

Clenbuterol Attenuates hERG Channel by Promoting the Mature Channel Degradation [PDF]
International Journal of Toxicology, 2017 Clenbuterol, a β2-selective adrenergic receptor agonist, is illicitly used in weight loss and performance enhancement and animal production. Increasing evidence demonstrates that clenbuterol induces various kinds of arrhythmias and QTc interval prolongation. However, little is known about the underlying mechanism.

Action potential clamp and pharmacology of the variant 1 Short QT Syndrome T618I hERG K⁺ channel.
PLoS ONE, 2012 BackgroundThe familial Short QT Syndrome (SQTS) is associated with an increased risk of cardiac arrhythmia and sudden death. Gain-of-function mutations in the hERG K(+) channel protein have been linked to variant 1 of the SQTS. A hERG channel pore (T618I)

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Overview of multiscale cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes and how to model and simulate these changes using a human‐based, multiscale computational framework. Cardiac remodelling in type 2 diabetes occurs at ionic channel, protein, cellular, tissue and whole‐organ level, affecting the electrophysiological function, mechanical

The 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.
