Troponin T3 regulates nuclear localization of the calcium channel Cavβ1a subunit in skeletal muscle [PDF]
, 2015 The voltage-gated calcium channel (Cav) β1a subunit (Cavβ1a) plays an important role in excitation-contraction coupling (ECC), a process in the myoplasm that leads to muscle-force generation. Recently, we discovered that the Cavβ1a subunit travels to the

Dynamics and calcium association to the N-terminal regulatory domain of human cardiac troponin C: a multiscale computational study. [PDF]
, 2012 Troponin C (TnC) is an important regulatory molecule in cardiomyocytes. Calcium binding to site II in TnC initiates a series of molecular events that result in muscle contraction.

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2020 Background Use of snus, a smokeless tobacco product, is increasing in Scandinavia. Strenuous physical activity is associated with an acute increase in high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin (swhs‐cTn) concentrations.

Cardiac troponin I but not cardiac troponin T adheres to polysulfone dialyser membranes in an in vitro haemodialysis model: explanation for lower serum cTnI concentrations following dialysis. [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Elevated serum cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and I (cTnI) can occur in patients with chronic kidney disease. Differences in cTn concentrations between cTnT and cTnI have been reported but the mechanism of such discrepancy has not been ...

Financial impact of a targeted reduction in cardiac enzyme testing at a community hospital [PDF]
Journal of Community Hospital Internal Medicine Perspectives, 2016 Objectives: Nearly one-third of healthcare costs are potentially avoidable and would not compromise medical care if eliminated. Therefore, we sought to evaluate the financial impact of reduction in use of creatinine kinase (CK)-MB and myoglobin tests ...

Prognostic Value of Elevated Cardiac Troponin I After Aneurysmal Subarachnoid Hemorrhage
Frontiers in Neurology, 2021 Object: Patients with aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) have an increased incidence of cardiac events and short-term unfavorable neurological outcomes during the acute phase of bleeding.

High-sensitivity cardiac troponin T and copeptin assays to improve diagnostic accuracy of exercise stress test in patients with suspected coronary artery disease [PDF]
, 2014 Background: The average diagnostic sensitivity of exercise stress tests (ESTs) is lower than that of other non-invasive cardiac stress tests. The aim of the study was to examine whether high-sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs-cTnT) or copeptin ...
