CLIC-2 modulates cardiac ryanodine receptor Ca2+ release channels
We have examined the biochemical and functional properties of the recently identified, uncharacterised CLIC-2 protein. Sequence alignments showed that CLIC-2 has a high degree of sequence similarity with CLIC-1 and some similarity to the omega class of glutathione transferases (GSTO).

17β-estradiol (E2) induces axonal growth through extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1 and 2 (ERK1/2)-MAPK cascade in hypothalamic neurons of male rat embryos in vitro, but the mechanism that initiates these events is poorly understood.

Age-Dependent Changes in Calcium Regulation after Myocardial Ischemia–Reperfusion Injury
During aging, heart structure and function gradually deteriorate, which subsequently increases susceptibility to ischemia–reperfusion (IR). Maintenance of Ca2+ homeostasis is critical for cardiac contractility.

The Mitochondrial Ca(2+) Uniporter: Structure, Function, and Pharmacology. [PDF]
Mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake is crucial for an array of cellular functions while an imbalance can elicit cell death. In this chapter, we briefly reviewed the various modes of mitochondrial Ca(2+) uptake and our current understanding of mitochondrial Ca(2+)

Clinical and molecular characterization of a cardiac ryanodine receptor founder mutation causing catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Background Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is a difficult-to-diagnose cause of sudden cardiac death (SCD). We identified a family of 1400 individuals with multiple cases of CPVT, including 36 SCDs during youth.

Ryanodine receptors are targeted by anti-apoptotic Bcl-X-L involving its BH4 domain and Lys87 from its BH3 domain [PDF]
Anti-apoptotic B-cell lymphoma 2 (Bcl-2) family members target several intracellular Ca2+-transport systems. Bcl-2, via its N-terminal Bcl-2 homology (BH) 4 domain, inhibits both inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP(3)Rs) and ryanodine receptors ...

Ethyl 3-bromo-1-(3-chloropyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylate
The title compound, C11H9BrClN3O2, is an intermediate in the synthesis of Rynaxypyre, a new insecticidal anthranilic diamide used as a potent and selective ryanodine receptor activator. The dihedral angle between the aromatic ring planes is 78.7 (2)
