The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Sex‐specific models of the human atrial myocyte in normal sinus rhythm (nSR) and chronic atrial fibrillation (cAF) revealed increased alternans susceptibility in cAF males and DADs in females, driven primarily by ICaL and ryanodine receptor remodelling.

Caenorhabditis elegans as an in vivo model system for human inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes
The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Most genes involved in inherited primary arrhythmia syndromes (IPAS) are conserved in Caenorhabditis elegans, where genetic manipulation enables functional characterization of variants, identification of regulatory proteins, and in vivo drug testing.

The distribution and function of the ATP-sensitive potassium channel subunit Kir6.1 in cardiac and skeletal muscle cell lines. [PDF]
, 2007 ATP-sensitive potassium channels (KAtp) are present in the plasma membrane of a number of tissues but are also present on endomembranes such as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria.

Coupling Gβγ-Dependent Activation to Channel Opening via Pore Elements in Inwardly Rectifying Potassium Channels [PDF]
, 2001 G protein–coupled inwardly rectifying potassium channels, GIRK/Kir3.x, are gated by the Gβγ subunits of the G protein. The molecular mechanism of gating was investigated by employing a novel yeast-based random mutagenesis approach that selected for ...

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend A, three‐dimensional representation of cardiac intercalated disk, reduced to a 100‐partition, computationally efficient network representation. B, ion dynamics within intercalated disk extracellular cleft space. C, rapid pacing leads to localized conduction block in tissue with regions of perturbed intercalated disk (ID ...

Identification of putative potassium channel homologues in pathogenic protozoa [PDF]
, 2012 K(+) channels play a vital homeostatic role in cells and abnormal activity of these channels can dramatically alter cell function and survival, suggesting that they might be attractive drug targets in pathogenic organisms.

Frontiers in Cellular Neuroscience, 2018 Inwardly rectifying potassium channels (Kir) have been historically associated to several cardiovascular disorders. In particular, loss-of-function mutations in the Kir2.1 channel have been reported in cases affected by Andersen-Tawil syndrome while gain-

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Cardiac cellular electrophysiology is modulated by multiple factors, including temperature, extracellular K+, heart rate/pacing frequency, and drugs. These modulators can have distinct effects on ion‐channel gating and transcription/trafficking over time.

The Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.Abstract figure legend Schematic illustrating the in silico study pipeline. A total of 50,000 virtual myocytes were generated, which were then filtered to 7093 myocytes that fit experimentally constrained biomarkers for physiological electrical and calcium behaviour under wild‐type conditions.
