Failing Human Hearts
Background A variety of previous studies have demonstrated reduced diastolic potential and electrical activity in atrial specimens from patients with heart disease. Although K' channels play a major role in determining resting membrane potential and repolarization of the action potential, little is known about the effects of preexisting heart disease on human atrial K' channel activity. Methods...
متن کاملGender Differences in Electrophysiological Gene Expression in Failing and Non-Failing Human Hearts
The increasing availability of human cardiac tissues for study are critically important in increasing our understanding of the impact of gender, age, and other parameters, such as medications and cardiac disease, on arrhythmia susceptibility. In this study, we aimed to compare the mRNA expression of 89 ion channel subunits, calcium handling proteins, and transcription factors important in cardi...
متن کاملTranscriptomal analysis of failing and nonfailing human hearts.
Heart failure is a multifactorial disease that may result from different initiating events. To contribute to an improved comprehension of normal cardiac function and the molecular events leading to heart failure, we performed large-scale gene expression analysis of failing and nonfailing human ventricle. Our aim was to define and compare expression profiles of 4 specific pathophysiological card...
متن کاملFailing ageing hearts.
Chronic heart failure is a major and increasing cause of morbidity and mortality. Although it is widely recognized that chronic heart failure affects the elderly, little attention has been given to its study specifically in this patient group. For example, patients with chronic heart failure in clinical trials frequently have an average age of around 60 years, in comparison to one of nearer 80 ...
متن کاملOxidative capacity in failing hearts.
Although high-energy phosphate metabolism is abnormal in failing hearts [congestive heart failure (CHF)], it is unclear whether oxidative capacity is impaired. This study used the mitochondrial uncoupling agent 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) to determine whether reserve oxidative capacity exists during the high workload produced by catecholamine infusion in hypertrophied and failing hearts. Left ventr...
