Mechanisms underlying local Ca2+ signalling differences between right and left atrial myocytes at normal and increased frequencies

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Left atrial myocytes have TAT‐associated faster Ca2+ release but are more prone to maladaptation at higher frequencies due to weaker peripheral SR Ca2+ uptake and smaller trigger Ca2+ current. Abstract Changes in heart rate affect Ca2+ signalling and contractility in ventricular muscle, but the effects on atrial Ca2+ signalling ...

Homer and the ryanodine receptor

open access: yesEuropean Biophysics Journal, 2009
Homer proteins have recently been identified as novel high-affinity ligands that modulate ryanodine receptor (RyR) Ca(2+) release channels in heart and skeletal muscle, through an EVH1 domain which binds to proline-rich regions in target proteins. Many Homer proteins can also self-associate through a coiled-coil domain that allows their multimerisation.

In Silico Analysis of Limonoid-Based Antifeedants from Melia volkensii Targeting the Ryanodine Receptor in Spodoptera frugiperda

open access: yesSciences of Phytochemistry
Spodoptera frugiperda is an invasive pest causing significant crop losses worldwide. Resistance development and health and environmental concerns associated with synthetic insecticides have prompted a search for eco-friendly biopesticides. Limonoids such

RyR2 QQ2958 Genotype and Risk of Malignant Ventricular Arrhythmias

open access: yesCardiology Research and Practice, 2016
Ventricular arrhythmias are one of the most common causes of death in developed countries. The use of implantable cardiac defibrillators is the most effective treatment to prevent sudden cardiac death.

14‐3‐3 proteins: Regulators of cardiac excitation–contraction coupling and stress responses

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend 14‐3‐3 protein interactions in cardiac regulation. Schematic representation of 14‐3‐3 binding partners in excitation–contraction coupling, transcriptional regulation/development and stress response pathways. Asterisks indicate targets where the exact 14‐3‐3 binding site is unknown.

Contribution of PGE2 EP1 receptor in hemin-induced neurotoxicity

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2013
Although hemin-mediated neurotoxicity has been linked to the production of free radicals and glutamate excitotoxicity, the role of the prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-EP1 receptor remains unclear.

Antioxidant supplementation blunts the proteome response to 3 weeks of sprint interval training preferentially in human type 2 muscle fibres

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Sprint interval training (SIT) is a popular time‐efficient type of endurance training. Healthy young men performed nine SIT sessions (4–6 × 30 s all‐out cycling sprints) over 3 weeks while being supplemented with antioxidants (high doses of vitamins C and E) or placebo. Muscle biopsies taken before and after the first SIT session

Computational modelling of the pro‐ and antiarrhythmic effects of atrial high rate‐dependent trafficking of small‐conductance calcium‐activated potassium channels

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Small‐conductance calcium‐activated potassium (SK) channels are important for atrial repolarization and can be targeted for atrial‐specific antiarrhythmic treatments. We developed a computational model with a calcium sensor to study the effects of increased pacing rate (5 Hz), which enhances SK‐channel gating and forward ...
