Imaging Calcium Sparks in Cardiac Myocytes [PDF]
, 2010 Calcium ions play fundamental roles in many cellular processes in virtually all type of cells. The use of Ca(2+) sensitive fluorescent indicators has proven to be an indispensable tool for studying the spatio-temporal dynamics of intracellular calcium ([Ca(2+)](i)).

Cardiac Myocytes and Mechanosensation
, 2012 Mechanosensation is a fundamental process in biology and may have been developed by the early cells in response to hypo-osmotic stress [1]. With the evolution of different cell types and the appearance of multi-cellular organisms the mechanisms of mechanosensation and the corresponding transmission of signals became more complex and evolved in ...

Mitochondrial membrane potential in cardiac myocytes
Physiological Research, 2002 Mitochondria are involved in cellular functions that transcend the traditional role of these organelles as the energy factory of the cell. Their relative inaccessibility and the difficulties involved in attempts to study them in their natural environment - the cytosol - has delayed much of this understanding and they still have many secrets to yield ...

Confocal laser scanning microscope, raman microscopy and western blotting to evaluate inflammatory response after myocardial infarction [PDF]
, 2015 Cardiac muscle necrosis is associated with inflammatory cascade that clears the infarct from dead cells and matrix debris, and then replaces the damaged tissue with scar, through three overlapping phases: the inflammatory phase, the proliferative phase

BMEMat, EarlyView.Extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from stem cells show promise for applications in regenerative medicine, but their scalability and yield remain challenges. This review explores the approaches for biophysical modulations within cell niches on EV properties, discusses the current clinical application of EVs, and provides an outlook on the existing ...

Nuclear CaMKII enhances histone H3 phosphorylation and remodels chromatin during cardiac hypertrophy. [PDF]
, 2013 Calcium/calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (CaMKII) plays a central role in pathological cardiac hypertrophy, but the mechanisms by which it modulates gene activity in the nucleus to mediate hypertrophic signaling remain unclear. Here, we report that
