Altered cardiac myocyte Ca regulation in heart failure.
نویسنده
چکیده
Ca is critical in both the electrical and mechanical properties of cardiac myocytes, and much is known about ionic currents and the normal excitation-contraction coupling process. In heart failure, there are significant alterations in how myocyte Ca is regulated, and these alterations are critical in dictating both contractile dysfunction and certain cardiac arrhythmias that are characteristic of heart failure.

Role of RyR2 phosphorylation in heart failure and arrhythmias: protein kinase A-mediated hyperphosphorylation of the ryanodine receptor at serine 2808 does not alter cardiac contractility or cause heart failure and arrhythmias.
This Controversies in Research article discusses the hypothesis that protein kinase A (PKA)-mediated phosphorylation of the Ryanodine Receptor (RyR) at a single serine (RyRS2808) is essential for normal sympathetic regulation of cardiac myocyte contractility and is responsible for the disturbed Ca(2+) regulation that underlies depressed contractility in heart failure. Studies supporting this hy...
متن کاملIn vivo adenoviral transfer of sorcin reverses cardiac contractile abnormalities of diabetic cardiomyopathy.
In many types of heart failure cardiac myocyte Ca(2+) handling is abnormal because of downregulation of key Ca(2+) - handling proteins like sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca(2+) - ATPase (SERCA)2a and ryanodine receptor (RyR)2. The alteration in SERCA2a and RyR2 expression results in altered cytosolic Ca(2+) transients, leading to abnormal contraction. Sorcin is an EF-hand protein that confers th...

It has been nearly 130 years since Sydney Ringer’s astute observations on the indispensability of extracellular Ca to eart muscle contraction (1). At the cellular level, we now now that fluctuations of cytosolic Ca are coordinated by everal myocyte proteins in order to functionally couple the ardiac action potential to sarcomeric shortening and mitohondrial energy production. This elegant myoca...

BACKGROUND Alterations in Ca(2+)-handling proteins are thought to underlie the deranged Ca(2+) transients that contribute to deterioration of cardiac function in congestive heart failure (CHF). Clinical trials in CHF patients have shown that treatment with beta-adrenergic receptor antagonists (betaB) improves cardiac performance. The present study determined whether the abundance of Ca(2+)-hand...

Proper contractile function of the heart depends on intact excitation–contraction processes and ion homeostasis of the myocytes. The 21 21 1 Ca ion activates contraction through its binding to troponin C. However, Ca homeostasis is tightly linked to Na regulation because 21 1 21 21 the primary mechanism for Ca efflux in cardiac myocytes is via electrogenic Na /Ca -exchange. While altered Ca -ho...
