Abstract:
Cerebral ischaemia is a leading cause of disability and death world-wide. The only effective treatments are thrombolytic therapy (plasminogen activator; tPA) and hypothermia (33?C). However, tPA has limited clinical application due to its short therapeutic time window and its specific application in thrombo-embolic stroke. Moderate hypothermia (33?C) is only being used following cardiac arrest in comatose survivors. Hence more treatments are urgently required. The first step in developing new treatments is the identification and characterisation of a potential therapeutic target. Since brain d

Abstract:
Abstract Cytosolic Ca2+, [Ca2+]I , has a key role in intracellular signalling during excitation-contraction coupling (E-C coupling) in cardiac myocytes. The sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is a main intracellular Ca2+ store and the Na+-Ca2+ exchanger (NaCaX) is a major mechanism to extrude Ca2+ for balancing the Ca2+ influx via L-type Ca2+ channels during excitation. Furthermore, [Ca2+]I also affects the configuration of the action potential (AP). The present study, by combination of animal experiments and computer simulations, investigated the roles of [Ca2+]I, SR and NaCaX in car

Abstract:
In adult cardiomyocytes, the established mechanism of excitation-contraction coupling is calcium-induced calcium release (CICR) mediated by L-type Ca2+ channels (Cav1.2). Briefly, membrane depolarization opens voltage-gated Cav1.2 to allow for the influx of extracellular Ca2+ into the cytosol. This small sarcolemmal (SL) Ca2+ influx is necessary for triggering a larger release of Ca2+ from the intracellular Ca2+ storage site, the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), through the SR Ca2+ release channel also known as the ryanodine receptor (RyR). RyR-mediated release of SR Ca2+ effectively raises the

However, it has been long recognized that rodent myoyctes die during long-term primary culture, which limits the use of genetically altered myocytes for signaling studies.

NCX contains a large intracellular loop (NCXIL) that is responsible for regulating NCX activity. Recent evidence has shown that proteins, including kinases and phosphatases, associate with NCX1IL to form a NCX1 macromolecular complex.

There are two major hypothetical mechanisms for DCD: the continuous activation of N-methyl-D-aspartate-subtype of the ionotropic glutamate receptors (NMDAR) and the reversal of the plasmalemmal Na+/Ca2+ exchanger. However, the contribution of each of these mechanisms in DCD is not completely established. Major re

HD is linked to a mutation in the huntingtin gene, which results in an elongation of the poly-glutamine stretch in the huntingtin protein (Htt). A major hypothesis is that mutant Htt (mHtt) leads to aberrant Ca2+ homeostasis in affected neurons. This may be caused by increased Ca2+ influx into the cell via the N-me

Previous studies have shown that caffeine, however, can also inhibit K + currents. We therefore investigated whether the inhibitory effects of caffeine on these currents could contaminate measurements of I Na/Ca. Caffeine caused partial inhibition of the inward rectifier K

The cardiac sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX) is an important membrane protein which regulates cellular calcium necessary for the optimal contractile function of the heart. NCX has become a focal point in ischemic heart disease (IHD) research as evidence suggests that reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced during IHD can cause NCX to malfunction resulting in an intracellular calcium overload leading to cardiac contractile abnormalities. Therefore, I hypothesized that NCX function is mediated by ROS increasing NCX1 activity during cardiac ischemia-reperfusion. To research this hypothesis, I invest
