We read with interest the report of Kontos et al. ([1][1]), which showed that any detectable troponin I in the serum of patients admitted with chest pain was associated with worse outcomes. We recently reported the results of a similar study involving troponin T levels ([2][2]), and we found ...

Are troponins confusing? [PDF]
The cardiospecificity and sensitivity of cardiac troponin measurement has proved to be a two edged sword for the laboratory and the clinician The ability to measure the cardiac specific markers, cardiac troponin T (cTnT) and cardiac troponin I (cTnI) (the cardiac troponins), has produced a paradigm shift in the assessment of patients with suspected ...

Thrombin-Mediated Degradation of Human Cardiac Troponin T.
BACKGROUND Cardiac troponin T (cTnT) is an acknowledged biomarker of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) that is known to be prone to proteolytic degradation in serum.

Abstract Background Injury response is key to successful regeneration. Yet, transcriptome analyses of injury response were performed only on a handful of regenerative organisms. Here, we studied the injury response of the solitary ascidian Polycarpa mytiligera, an emerging model system, capable of regenerating any body part.

The cardiac Ca-sensitive regulatory switch, a system in dynamic equilibrium [PDF]
The Ca-sensitive regulatory switch of cardiac muscle is a paradigmatic example of protein assemblies that communicate ligand binding through allosteric change. The switch is a dimeric complex of troponin C (TnC), an allosteric sensor for Ca, and troponin I (TnI), an allosteric reporter.

Diagnostic utility of cardiac troponin T level in patients with cardiac amyloidosis
The aim of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic utility of high‐sensitivity cardiac troponin T (hs‐cTnT) levels in discriminating cardiac amyloidosis from patients with cardiac hypertrophy caused by aetiologies other than cardiac amyloidosis.

Remote Ischemic Preconditioning Neither Improves Survival nor Reduces Myocardial or Kidney Injury in Patients Undergoing Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI) [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Peri-interventional myocardial injury occurs frequently during transcatheter aortic valve implantation (TAVI). We assessed the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (RIPC) on myocardial injury, acute kidney injury (AKIN) and 6-month ...
