Journal ArticleDOI

Age and gender affect ventricular-vascular coupling during aerobic exercise.

TL;DR: Sub-optimal ventricular-vascular coupling helps to explain the age-associated blunting of maximal exercise EF, and its underlying mechanisms appear to differ between men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI

Termination of Ca2+ release by a local inactivation of ryanodine receptors in cardiac myocytes

TL;DR: The results indicate that Ca2+ release is terminated primarily by a highly localized, use-dependent inactivation of RyRs but not by the stochastic closing or adaptation ofRyRs in intact ventricular myocytes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Arterial aging and subclinical arterial disease are fundamentally intertwined at macroscopic and molecular levels.

TL;DR: This review provides a landscape of central arterial aging and age-disease interactions, integrating perspectives that range from humans to molecules, with the goal that future therapies for cardiovascular diseases also will target the prevention or amelioration of unsuccessful arterial Aging.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cellular calcium fluctuations in mammalian heart: direct evidence from noise analysis of aequorin signals in Purkinje fibers

TL;DR: Noise analysis of the aequorin luminescence reveals prominent peaks of power density at frequencies of 1-4 Hz; these peaks become larger and shift to higher frequencies as the [Ca2+]i increases, suggesting that Ca2+ release and uptake by the sarcoplasmic reticulum generate these events.
