Postnatal development of atrial repolarization in the mouse.
OBJECTIVES AND METHODS This study examines postnatal development of action potential duration (APD) and voltage-dependent K(+) currents in mouse atrial myocytes and compares the expression levels of corresponding K(+) channels between adult and neonatal mouse atrial tissues. APD and K(+) currents were compared between atrial myocytes isolated from postnatal Day-1, Day-7, Day-20, and adult mice....
متن کاملMechanisms of abnormal cardiac repolarization during insulin-induced hypoglycemia.
Prolonged cardiac repolarization causes fatal cardiac arrhythmias. There is evidence that these contribute to sudden death associated with nocturnal hypoglycemia in young people with diabetes. We measured cardiac repolarization (QT interval [QTc] and QT dispersion [QTd]) during experimental hypoglycemia with and without beta-blockade and potassium infusion to establish possible mechanisms. Two ...
متن کاملGene Expression Profile of CatSper3 and CatSper4 during Postnatal Development of Mouse Testis
Channel activities, particularly those of calcium channels, have vital roles in the process of sperm maturation, motility and sperm-egg interaction. A group of the recently discovered ion channels associated with these processes is four novel channel-like proteins known as CatSper (cation channel sperm) gene family. CatSper1 and CatSper2 show sperm specific expression patterns. However, neither...
متن کاملRegulation of protein metabolism during postnatal development.
The foetal and neonatal periods of mammalian development are associated with a profound anabolic state leading to an unprecedented rate of growth. Although both energy and protein intake are important in determining the postnatal growth rate of the rat, studies using artificial diets have shown that it is protein intake which is the most significant factor (Miller, 1970). The weight gain during...
متن کاملchHDAC11 mRNA Expression During Prenatal and Postnatal Chicken (Gallus gallus) Brain Development
Background: Histone deacetylation plays an essential role in transcriptional regulation of cell cycle progression and other evolutionary processes. Several results confirm the importance of the latest found HDAC11 gene to deacetylate histone core in neurons and their supportive cells in developing the vertebrate Central Nervous System (CNS). Objectives: This study investigates the HDAC11 pote...
