Ryanodine receptor-2: a necessity for gating store-operated Ca2+channels [PDF]
This editorial refers to ‘Conformation of ryanodine receptor-2 gates store-operated calcium entry in rat pulmonary arterial myocytes’ by A.H.Y. Lin et al ., pp. 94–104. Store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) is an important regulator of vascular tone as it is linked to a variety of functions including contraction, proliferation, and migration.1,2 It is ...

Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Dysplasia in Neuromuscular Disorders
Objectives Arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia (ARVD) is a rare, genetic disorder predominantly affecting the right ventricle. There is increasing evidence that in some cases, ARVD is due to mutations in genes, which have also been implicated in ...

True Molecular Scale Visualization of Variable Clustering Properties of Ryanodine Receptors
Summary: Signaling nanodomains rely on spatial organization of proteins to allow controlled intracellular signaling. Examples include calcium release sites of cardiomyocytes where ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are clustered with their molecular partners ...

The disease mutation A77V in Ryanodine receptor RyR2 induces changes in energy conduction pathways in the protein [PDF]
Energetically responsive residues of the 217 amino acid N-terminal domain of the cardiac Ryanodine receptor RyR2 are identified by a simple elastic net model. These residues lie along a hydrogen bonded path through the protein.

Structural and functional conservation of key domains in InsP3 and ryanodine receptors. [PDF]
Inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (InsP(3)Rs) and ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are tetrameric intracellular Ca(2+) channels. In each of these receptor families, the pore, which is formed by carboxy-terminal transmembrane domains, is regulated by ...

Altered Stoichiometry of FKBP12.6 Versus Ryanodine Receptor as a Cause of Abnormal Ca 2+ Leak Through Ryanodine Receptor in Heart Failure [PDF]
Background —In the pathogenesis of cardiac dysfunction in heart failure, a decrease in the activity of the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca 2+ -ATPase is believed to be a major determinant. Here, we report a novel mechanism of cardiac dysfunction revealed by assessing the functional interaction of FK506 ...

Sequeira et al. reveal how the glucagon‐like peptide‐1 receptor agonist (GLP‐1‐RA) semaglutide restores cardiomyocyte function in rats subjected to a high‐fat/high‐fructose diet (HFD). Employing fluorescence‐ and patch‐clamp technology in isolated cardiac myocytes, they demonstrate that semaglutide reverses HFD‐induced activation of L‐type calcium ...

Mitochondrial ryanodine receptors and other mitochondrial Ca2+ permeable channels [PDF]
Ca2+ channels that underlie mitochondrial Ca2+ transport first reported decades ago have now just recently been precisely characterized electrophysiologically. Numerous data indicate that mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake via these channels regulates multiple intracellular processes by shaping cytosolic and mitochondrial Ca2+ transients, as well as altering ...
