Investigating the role of uncoupling of troponin I phosphorylation from changes in myofibrillar Ca(2+)-sensitivity in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy. [PDF]
Contraction in the mammalian heart is controlled by the intracellular Ca2+ concentration as it is in all striated muscle, but the heart has an additional signalling system that comes into play to increase heart rate and cardiac output during exercise or ...

The Prognostic Significance of Troponin I and Troponin T [PDF]
Abstract. Objectives: To determine and compare the prognostic abilities of early, single‐sample measurements of cardiac troponin I (cTn‐I), cardiac troponin T (cTn‐T), creatine kinase‐MB (CK‐MB) among ED patients with possible myocardial ischemia. Methods: Prospective collection of clinical and serologic data using an identity‐unlinked technique from

Background: Stroke is the second leading cause of death worldwide, comprising approximately 10% of all deaths. A substantial number of stroke patients have elevated cardiac troponin levels and are associated with poorer prognosis.

The α‐helix in troponin I (TnI) at the interface with troponin T (TnT) is a highly conserved structure. A point mutation in this region, A116G, was found in human cardiac TnI in a case of cardiomyopathy.

Troponin-I is not falsely elevated in asymptomatic dialysis patients
Dialysis patients with troponin-I levels above the cut-off value diagnostic for acute myocardial event (AME) are sometimes labeled as having "renal cause" of elevated troponin-I.

High incidence of macrotroponin I with a high-sensitivity troponin I assay [PDF]
Cardiac troponin is the preferred biomarker of myocardial injury. High-sensitivity troponin assays allow measurement of very low levels of troponin with excellent precision.

The Solution Structure of a Cardiac Troponin C−Troponin I−Troponin T Complex Shows a Somewhat Compact Troponin C Interacting with an Extended Troponin I−Troponin T Component [PDF]
We have investigated the structure of the cTnC-cTnI-cTnT(198-298) calcium-saturated, ternary cardiac troponin complex by small-angle scattering with contrast variation. Shape restoration was also applied to the scattering information resulting from the deuterated cTnC subunit, the unlabeled cTnI-cTnT(198-298) subunits, and the entire complex.
