Cardiac L-type calcium channel (Cav1.2) associates with subunits
The cardiac voltage-gated Ca channel, Cav1.2, mediates excitation-contraction coupling in the heart. The molecular composition of the channel includes the pore-forming 1 subunit and auxiliary 2/ -1 and subunits. Ca channel subunits, of which there are 8 isoforms, consist of 4 transmembrane domains with intracellular Nand C-terminal ends. The 1 subunit was initially detected in the skeletal musc...
متن کاملThe cardiac IKs channel, complex indeed.
T he cardiac IKs channel is a major repolarization current in the heart that responds rapidly and robustly to sympathetic nervous system stimulation to ensure adequate diastolic filling time in the face of accompanying accelerated heart rate. In cardiac myocytes, the IKs channel is a macromolecular complex composed of a poreforming α (KCNQ1) subunit and modulatory β (KCNE1) subunit, as well as ...
متن کاملThe potassium channel Kir4.1 associates with the dystrophin-glycoprotein complex via alpha-syntrophin in glia.
One of the major physiological roles of potassium channels in glial cells is to promote "potassium spatial buffering" in the central nervous system, a process necessary to maintain an optimal potassium concentration in the extracellular environment. This process requires the precise distribution of potassium channels accumulated at high density in discrete subdomains of glial cell membranes. To...
متن کاملCardiac Rapidly Activating Delayed Rectifier K' Channel
Class III antiarrhythmic drugs show promise as effective treatments for the suppression of potentially lethal cardiac arrhythmias. Dofetilide (UK-68,798), is a potent class III antiarrhythmic agent that is presently under clinical investigation. The objective of this study was to determine whether [3H]dofetilide could be used as a specific radioligand for the rapidly activating delayed rectifie...

Objective: Acute chest pain is an important and frequently occurring symptom in patients. Chest pain is often a sign of ischemic heart disease. Chest pain due to suspected Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) is responsible for a large and ijncreasing number of hospital attendances and admissions. Current practice for suspected ACS involves troponin testing 10–12 hours after symptom o...
