A drug dose (and con-centration) that produces minimal QT prolongation in onepatient may, in an apparently indistinguishable subject, pro-duce marked QT prolongation and torsade de pointes. Thisvariability in response to an exogenous stressor is paralleledby variability in the extent to which a given mutation in thecongenital long-QT syndrome prolongs ...

Arrhythmogenic Mechanisms in Hypokalaemia: Insights From Pre-clinical Models
Potassium is the predominant intracellular cation, with its extracellular concentrations maintained between 3. 5 and 5 mM. Among the different potassium disorders, hypokalaemia is a common clinical condition that increases the risk of life-threatening ...

Translation of non‐clinical markers of delayed ventricular repolarization to clinical prolongation of the QT interval corrected for heart rate (QTc) (a biomarker for torsades de pointes proarrhythmia) remains an issue in drug discovery and regulatory ...

TRPV4 Contributes to Resting Membrane Potential in Retinal Müller Cells: Implications in Cell Volume Regulation [PDF]
Neural activity alters osmotic gradients favoring cell swelling in retinal Müller cells. This swelling is followed by a regulatory volume decrease (RVD), partially mediated by an efflux of KCl and water. The transient receptor potential channel 4 (TRPV4),

Tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) are pivotal for tumor development and progression. Reprogramming the M2-like pro-tumoral behavior of TAMs towards the M1-like anti-tumor phenotype to unleash their potential against tumors has become one of the most ...

Electrophysiology Models for End-Stage Renal Disease Maladaptations That Promote Asystole
Many patients with chronic renal impairment experience cardiac comorbidities throughout their lives, and the incidence of electrophysiological demise for patients with terminal renal impairment requiring renal replacement therapy is higher than in ...

Ventricular repolarization abnormality plays a crucial role in cardiac arrhythmia. Polymorphisms in renin—angiotensin system genes are associated with occurrence of ventricular arrhythmia. We previously demonstrated that subjects carrying the angiotensin

Background The current study aimed to evaluate changes in electrical depolarization and repolarization parameters after His‐bundle pacing (HBP) compared with right ventricular pacing (RVP) and its association with ventricular arrhythmia (VA).

Altered excitation-contraction coupling in human chronic atrial fibrillation [PDF]
This review focuses on the (mal)adaptive processes in atrial excitation-contraction coupling occurring in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation. Cellular remodeling includes shortening of the atrial action potential duration and effective refractory ...

Background The possible relationship between temporal variability of electrocardiographic spatial heterogeneity of repolarization and the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) is not completely understood ...
