Phosphoinositide signalling and cardiac arrhythmias.
Arrhythmias arise from a complex interaction between structural changes in the myocardium and changes in cellular electrophysiology. Electrophysiological balance requires precise control of sarcolemmal ion channels and exchangers, many of which are regulated by phospholipid, phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate. Phosphatidylinositol(4,5)bisphosphate is the immediate precursor of inositol(1,4,5...
متن کاملPhosphoinositide 3-kinase signalling pathways.
Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) phosphorylate the 3'-OH position of the inositol ring of inositol phospholipids, producing three lipid products: PtdIns(3)P, PtdIns(3,4)P(2) and PtdIns(3,4,5)P(3). These lipids bind to the pleckstrin homology (PH) domains of proteins and control the activity and subcellular localisation of a diverse array of signal transduction molecules. Three major classes o...

node as the region responsible for activation of the heart.1 Laslett first suggested sinus node dysfunction as a cause of bradycardia in 1909, and during the 1950s and 1960s Short, Ferrer, Lown, and others described the clinical spectrum of sinus node dysfunction that is commonly called the “sick sinus syndrome resting sinus bradycardia.”2-5 Sinus node dysfunction can have multiple electrocardi...
متن کاملStress and Cardiac Arrhythmias
Stress can exert adverse effect on cardiovascular health. Psychosocial stress adversely affects the autonomic homeostasis. This in turn can result in metabolic abnormalities, inflammation and dysfunction of endothelium [1]. Changes in the autonomic homeostasis can be a major trigger for ventricular tachyarrhythmias [2]. Increased sympathetic nervous activity can cause increased proarrhythmic re...
متن کاملCardiac arrhythmias and pacing.
Clinical trials. In the last two years, a number of landmark clinical trials have been published which further our understanding and clinical management of patients with atrial fibrillation (AF). Two of the major goals in the treatment of this condition include reducing progression or recurrence of the arrhythmia and decreasing the risk of cardiovascular events, thereby improving quality of lif...
