IL-1α and TNF-α Down-Regulate CRH Receptor-2 mRNA Expression in the Mouse Heart [PDF]

, 2001
Two receptors (CRH receptor type 1 and CRH receptor type 2) have been identified for the stress-induced neuropeptide, CRH and related peptides, urocortin, and urocortin II.

Canonical and non‐canonical functions of proteins regulating mitochondrial dynamics in mammalian physiology

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Mitochondria are highly dynamic organelles that continuously remodel their architecture through coordinated cycles of fusion and fission. This review examines the four key GTPases that orchestrate mitochondrial dynamics in mammals: MFN1, MFN2, OPA1, and DRP1.

Structure mirroring function: What's the ‘matter’ with the funny current?

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The ‘funny’ (If) current of cardiac pacemaker cells has been first identified in the late 1970s as a major mechanism in the generation and control of cardiac pacemaking. Decades of studies have since described the properties of the funny current and of its molecular components, HCN channels, in the heart and brain, providing the ...

TRPC6 counteracts TRPC3-Nox2 protein complex leading to attenuation of hyperglycemia-induced heart failure in mice [PDF]

, 2017
Excess production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) caused by hyperglycemia is a major risk factor for heart failure. We previously reported that transient receptor potential canonical 3 (TRPC3) channel mediates pressure overload-induced maladaptive ...

In silico modelling of multi‐electrode arrays for enhancing cardiac drug testing on hiPSC‐CM heterogeneous tissues

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic overview of the experimental and computational framework for investigating hiPSC‐CM electrophysiology with MEA systems. The MEA‐based model integrates experimental data with phenotype‐specific ionic models and tissue‐level heterogeneity.

New perspectives to repair a broken heart [PDF]

, 2009
The aim of cardiac cell therapy is to restore at least in part the functionality of the diseased or injured myocardium by the use of stem/ progenitor cells.

Models of cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte electrical interactions

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Cardiomyocyte–non‐myocyte (CM–NM) electrotonic coupling. Left: conceptual contact‐based interactions between CM and other NM via connexin (Cx) proteins. Three basic scenarios are proposed: (i) ‘zero‐sided coupling’ where there are no electrical connections between CM and NM, (ii) ‘single‐sided coupling’ where NM are connected to ...

Expression and distribution of ectonucleotidases in mouse urinary bladder.

PLoS ONE, 2011
BackgroundNormal urinary bladder function requires bidirectional molecular communication between urothelium, detrusor smooth muscle and sensory neurons and one of the key mediators involved in this intercellular signaling is ATP.
