Journal ArticleDOI

Dynamic changes in conduction velocity and gap junction properties during development of pacing-induced heart failure.

TL;DR: High-resolution optical mapping in arterially perfused myocardial preparations from dogs subjected to 0, 3, 7, 14, and 21 days of rapid pacing reveals a novel paradigm of remodeling based on the timing of conduction abnormalities relative to changes in Cx43 isoforms and mechanical dysfunction.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrophysiological Consequences of Dyssynchronous Heart Failure and Its Restoration by Resynchronization Therapy

TL;DR: CRT partially restores DHF-induced ion channel remodeling and abnormal Ca2+ homeostasis and attenuates the regional heterogeneity of action potential duration.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cyclic GMP/PKG-Dependent Inhibition of TRPC6 Channel Activity and Expression Negatively Regulates Cardiomyocyte NFAT Activation: Novel Mechanism of Cardiac Stress Modulation by PDE5 Inhibition

TL;DR: The hypothesis that PKG blocks Cn/NFAT activation by modifying and thus inhibiting TRPC6 current to break the positive feedback loop involving NFAT and NFAT-dependent TRPC 6 upregulation is tested.
