In congestive heart failure (CHF), coronary vascular relaxation is associated with endothelial dysfunction and nitric oxide (NO) deficiency. This study explored the reversibility of this process in hearts recovering from CHF and its related mechanism

Left ventricular (LV) diastolic dysfunction is a fundamental impairment in congestive heart failure (CHF). This study examined LV diastolic function in the canine model of CHF induced by chronic coronary embolization (CCE). Dogs were implanted with c

Background— Phospholamban (PLN) is an inhibitor of the Ca 2+ affinity of sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca 2+ -ATPase (SERCA2). The amino acid sequence of PLN is highly conserved, and although all species contain asparagine (Asn), human PLN is unique

The protein kinase C (PKC) family of serine/threonine kinases functions downstream of nearly all membrane-associated signal transduction pathways. Here we identify PKC-alpha as a fundamental regulator of cardiac contractility and Ca(2+) handling in m

Recent studies identify conventional protein kinase C (PKC) isoform phosphorylations at conserved residues in the activation loop and C terminus as maturational events that influence enzyme activity and targeting but are not dynamically regulated by

A calcineurin-nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT) regulatory pathway has been implicated in the control of cardiac hypertrophy, suggesting one mechanism whereby alterations in intracellular calcium handling are linked to the expression of hype

Members of the protein kinase C (PKC) isozyme family are important signal transducers in virtually every mammalian cell type. Within the heart, PKC isozymes are thought to participate in a signaling network that programs developmental and pathologica

The Ca 2+ -calmodulin-activated Ser/Thr protein phosphatase calcineurin and the downstream transcriptional effectors of calcineurin, nuclear factor of activated T cells, have been implicated in the hypertrophic response of the myocardium. Recently, t

Aims Activation of phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI3K) is essential for cell growth, relating to adaptive and maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy. This longitudinal canine study was designed to investigate the role of PI3Kα and PI3Kγ in cardiac remodellin

Structural proteins such as elastin and collagen can be readily imaged by using two-photon excitation and second-harmonic generation microscopic techniques, respectively, without physical or biochemical processing of the tissues. This time- and effor
