The calcium sensitizer drug MCI-154 binds the structural C-terminal domain of cardiac troponin C [PDF]
The compound MCI-154 was previously shown to increase the calcium sensitivity of cardiac muscle contraction. Using solution NMR spectroscopy, we demonstrate that MCI-154 interacts with the calcium-sensing subunit of the cardiac troponin complex, cardiac ...

Measurement of Calcium Dissociation Rates from Troponin C in Rigor Skeletal Myofibrils [PDF]
Ca2+ dissociation from the regulatory domain of troponin C may influence the rate of striated muscle relaxation. However, Ca2+ dissociation from troponin C has not been measured within the geometric and stoichiometric constraints of the muscle fiber ...

Aim: Parameters used to determine prognosis in community-acquired pneumonia (CAP) patients often have limited clinical value. This study aims to examine the efficacy of CRP, albumin, CRP/albumin ratio and troponin elevation in predicting 30-day mortality

Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy Mutations of Troponin Reveal Details of Striated Muscle Regulation
Striated muscle contraction is inhibited by the actin associated proteins tropomyosin, troponin T, troponin I and troponin C. Binding of Ca2+ to troponin C relieves this inhibition by changing contacts among the regulatory components and ultimately ...

X-ROS Signaling Depends on Length-Dependent Calcium Buffering by Troponin
The stretching of a cardiomyocyte leads to the increased production of reactive oxygen species that increases ryanodine receptor open probability through a process termed X-ROS signaling.

An in silico analysis of troponin I mutations in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy of Indian origin. [PDF]
Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM) is an autosomal dominant disorder of the myocardium which is hypertrophied resulting in arrhythmias and heart failure leading to sudden cardiac death (SCD).
