Ouabain affects cell migration via Na,K-ATPase-p130cas and via nucleus-centrosome association. [PDF]
Na,K-ATPase is a membrane protein that catalyzes ATP to maintain transmembrane sodium and potassium gradients. In addition, Na,K-ATPase also acts as a signal-transducing receptor for cardiotonic steroids such as ouabain and activates a number of ...

Effects of Ouabain, Atropine, and Ouabain and Atropine, on A-V Nodal Conduction in Man [PDF]
The prolongation of A-V transmission time that occurs with increasing rates of right atrial pacing has been used to study the effect of ouabain and of ouabain plus atropine on A-V nodal conduction in 14 patients with normal A-V nodes. Drugs were injected into the superior vena cava or pulmonary artery over a 1- to 2-min period.

The cardiotonic steroids (CTS), such as ouabain and marinobufagenin, are thought to be adrenocortical hormones secreted during exercise and the stress response. The catalytic α-subunit of Na,K-ATPase (NKA) is a CTS receptor, whose largest pool is located

Ouabain suppresses the migratory behavior of lung cancer cells. [PDF]
The migratory capability of cancer cells is one of the most important hallmarks reflecting metastatic potential. Ouabain, an endogenous cardiac glycoside produced by the adrenal gland, has been previously reported to have anti-tumor activities; however ...

The role of Na+/K+-ATPase during chick skeletal myogenesis. [PDF]
The formation of a vertebrate skeletal muscle fiber involves a series of sequential and interdependent events that occurs during embryogenesis. One of these events is myoblast fusion which has been widely studied, yet not completely understood.

Ouabain - the insulin of the heart
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.

Ouabain Modulates Zymosan-Induced Peritonitis in Mice
Ouabain, a potent inhibitor of the Na+, K+-ATPase, was identified as an endogenous substance. Recently, ouabain was shown to affect various immunological processes.

Visualization of the Spiral Ganglion Neuron in Vivo Using a Novel 177Lu Nuclear Molecule Label
The study developed and validated a radionuclide‐labeled anti‐VGLUT1 antibody probe for the first nuclear imaging of cochlear spiral ganglion neurons (SGNs) in vivo. This approach may provide aid in screening candidates suitable for CI surgery by quantifying the number of surviving SGNs, and predicting the potential for postoperative hearing ...
