Abstract The pharmaceutical industry has increasingly adopted model‐informed drug discovery and development (MID3) to enhance productivity in drug discovery and development. Quantitative systems pharmacology (QSP), which integrates drug action mechanisms and disease complexities to predict clinical endpoints and biomarkers is central to MID3.

Neuronal reprograming of protein homeostasis by calcium-dependent regulation of the heat shock response. [PDF]
Protein quality control requires constant surveillance to prevent misfolding, aggregation, and loss of cellular function. There is increasing evidence in metazoans that communication between cells has an important role to ensure organismal health and to ...

Malignant hyperthermia (MH) is a potentially fatal genetic disorder triggered by certain anesthetics, leading to excessive calcium release in skeletal muscle. While most MH-associated mutations affect the type 1 ryanodine receptor, a Ca2+ release channel

Mechanical ventilation (MV) is often a life-saving intervention for patients in respiratory failure. Unfortunately, a common and undesired consequence of prolonged MV is the development of diaphragmatic atrophy and contractile dysfunction.

The Ryanodine Receptor/Calcium Release Channel and its Interaction Partners
Abstract Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) function as the major intracellular calcium release channels in striated muscle, where they also play a central role in excitation-contraction (e-c) coupling, the signal transduction process by which neuron-induced depolarization of the muscle plasma membrane leads to release of Ca from the ...

Compartmentalisation in cAMP signalling: A phase separation perspective
Cells rely on precise spatiotemporal control of signalling pathways to ensure functional specificity. The compartmentalisation of cyclic AMP (cAMP) and protein kinase A (PKA) signalling enables distinct cellular responses within a crowded cytoplasmic space.

Mice null for calsequestrin 1 exhibit deficits in functional performance and sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium handling. [PDF]
In skeletal muscle, the release of calcium (Ca(2+)) by ryanodine sensitive sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) release channels (i.e., ryanodine receptors; RyR1s) is the primary determinant of contractile filament activation.

Abstract Background and Purpose Doxorubicin (DOX) is a highly effective anthracycline, whose clinical application for cancer is limited by cardiotoxicity. The mechanisms underlying doxorubicin‐induced toxic cardiomyopathy (DICM) involve electrophysiological remodelling with intracellular Na+ overload because of increased late INa and hyperactivation of
