Functional divergence of protein kinase A regulatory subunit Iβ variants: the importance of N3A motifs in PKA regulation

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The regulatory subunit RIβ of protein kinase A occurs in two variants that differ at residue 268 (A268 versus R268). This seemingly small substitution significantly changes cAMP sensitivity, basal kinase activity, and the dynamic behavior of the regulatory domains.

Brain serotonin depletion enhances the sodium appetite induced by sodium depletion or beta-adrenergic stimulation

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2004
We investigate the influence of brain serotonin depletion on the sodium appetite. Rats depleted of serotonin through the systemic administration of p-chlorophenylalanine (300 mg/kg, ip, for 2 days) showed an intense natriorexigenic response induced by ...

Sarcospan Regulates Cardiac Isoproterenol Response and Prevents Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy-Associated Cardiomyopathy. [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundDuchenne muscular dystrophy is a fatal cardiac and skeletal muscle disease resulting from mutations in the dystrophin gene. We have previously demonstrated that a dystrophin-associated protein, sarcospan (SSPN), ameliorated Duchenne muscular ...

Premature Ventricular Contractions From the Proximal Left Anterior Fascicle: Insight From the Electrophysiologic and Anatomic Parameters

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Premature ventricular contractions (PVCs) originating from the proximal left anterior fascicle (LAF) are rarely discussed. We aimed to describe the characteristics and ablation outcome of PVCs originating from the proximal LAF and propose a stepwise approach.

Effect of exogenous adiponectin on myocardial fibrosis in mice models with myocardial fibrosis

Cardiology Plus, 2016
Background: Myocardial fibrosis is closely associated with cardiac dysfunction, arrhythmia, and sudden cardiac death. A model of myocardial fibrosis induced by isoprenaline was used to determine the influence of exogenous adiponectin on myocardial ...

Coexistence of Atrioventricular Nodal Reentrant Tachycardia and Idiopathic Left Ventricular Outflow-Tract Tachycardia [PDF]

, 2005
Double tachycardia is a relatively rare condition. We describe a 21 year old woman with history of frequent palpitations. In one of these episodes, she had wide complex tachycardia with right bundle branch and inferior axis morphology.

Acute Efficacy of Pulsed‐Field Ablation of the Mitral Isthmus Using a Pentaspline Catheter and Two Different Ablation Settings

Journal of Cardiovascular Electrophysiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction There is limited data regarding the use of pulsed‐field ablation (PFA) for mitral isthmus (MI) ablation in patients with non‐paroxysmal atrial fibrillation (AF). Our aim was to assess the acute efficacy of MI ablation using a pentaspline PFA catheter with two different ablation settings.
