ADENYLYL CYCLASE TYPE 9: REGULATION AND CARDIAC FUNCTION [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Abnormalities in cardiac stress signaling underlie a number of cardiovascular diseases (e.g. arrhythmias and heart failure). Cardiac stress signaling pathways normally integrate signals from the sympathetic nervous system to promote efficient contraction

The Evolution of Sinoatrial Node Function in Man [PDF]

open access: yes, 1973
The function of the sinoatrial node is complex. In nearly all hearts, this small bit of tissue is responsible for spontaneously generating the impulse which will be distributed to the remainder of the heart, maintaining coordinated electrical and ...

Cardiac‐specific Kv1.1 deficiency alters cardiomyocyte electrophysiology without modifying overall cardiac function or arrhythmia susceptibility

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract The leading cause of epilepsy‐related mortality is sudden unexpected death in epilepsy (SUDEP), resulting from seizure‐induced cardiorespiratory arrest by mechanisms that remain unresolved. Mutations in ion channel genes expressed in both brain and heart represent SUDEP risk factors because they can disrupt neural and cardiac rhythms ...

Altered microRNA and mRNA profiles during heart failure in the human sinoatrial node

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Heart failure (HF) is frequently accompanied with the sinoatrial node (SAN) dysfunction, which causes tachy-brady arrhythmias and increased mortality. MicroRNA (miR) alterations are associated with HF progression.

Diabetes increases mortality after myocardial infarction by oxidizing CaMKII [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Diabetes increases oxidant stress and doubles the risk of dying after myocardial infarction, but the mechanisms underlying increased mortality are unknown.

Abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis, atrial arrhythmogenesis, and sinus node dysfunction in murine hearts modeling RyR2 modification [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR2) mutations are implicated in catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) thought to result from altered myocyte Ca(2+) homeostasis reflecting inappropriate “leakiness” of RyR2-Ca(2+) release channels ...

Glial cells in the heart: Implications for their roles in health and disease

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend Schematic representation of cardiac autonomic ganglia within epicardial fat pads (posterior heart surface shown), containing vagal postganglionic neuron cell bodies, associated fibres, and glia. These ganglia receive cholinergic input from vagal preganglionic neurons and adrenergic input from sympathetic postganglionic neurons ...

Controlling parasympathetic regulation of heart rate: a gatekeeperrole for RGS proteins in the sinoatrial node

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2012
Neurotransmitters released from sympathetic and parasympathetic nerve terminals in the SAN exert their effects via G-protein-coupled receptors. Integration of these different G-protein signals within pacemaker cells of the sinoatrial node (SAN) is ...
