Involvement of Inflammatory Cytokines in Antiarrhythmic Effects of Clofibrate in Ouabain-Induced Arrhythmia in Isolated Rat Atria

open access: yesAdvances in Pharmacological Sciences, 2016
Considering the cardioprotective and anti-inflammatory properties of clofibrate, the aim of the present experiment was to investigate the involvement of local and systemic inflammatory cytokines in possible antiarrhythmic effects of clofibrate in ouabain-

Antiapoptotic effect of ouabain on human umbilical vein endothelial cells

open access: yes, 2004
The present study investigates the effect of ouabain on caspase-3 activation in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC). Ouabain (EC(50) 20 nM) reduced caspase-3 activity in HUVEC treated for 24h in a medium deprived of fibroblast growth factor ...

Ouabain Counteracts Retinal Ganglion Cell Death Through Modulation of BDNF and IL-1 Signaling Pathways

open access: yesBrain Sciences
Background: Ouabain is a steroid hormone that binds to the sodium pump (Na+, K+-ATPase) at physiological (nanomolar) concentrations, activating different signaling pathways.

Novel Receptors for Ouabain: Studies in Adrenocortical Cells and Membranes

open access: yes, 2002
Sodium-potassium pumps (Na pumps) are the only known plasma membrane receptors for cardiac glycosides. However, adrenocortical cells secrete an endogenous ouabain via an unknown mechanism that is subject to feedback inhibition via the cell ...

Ouabain modulates ciliogenesis in epithelial cells

open access: yes, 2011
The exchange of substances between higher organisms and the environment occurs across transporting epithelia whose basic features are tight junctions (TJs) that seal the intercellular space, and polarity, which enables cells to transport ...

Mechanisms of ouabain-induced arterial muscle contraction

open access: yes, 1980
Ouabain caused dose-related contractions in helically cut strips of cerebral, mesenteric, renal, and femoral arteries isolated from dogs and monkeys; the contractions were elicited at lower concentrations in cerebral than in the peripheral arteries ...

Ouabain - the insulin of the heart.

open access: yesInternational journal of clinical practice, 2010
Prior to the introduction of modern drugs like angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors and β-adrenergic receptor antagonists, the cardiac glycoside ouabain (referred to as g-Strophanthin in German) has routinely been used in treatment of heart diseases.
