Long-Term Cardiac-Targeted RNA Interference for the Treatment of Heart Failure Restores Cardiac Function and Reduces Pathological Hypertrophy

TL;DR: Targeted RNAi for the treatment of heart failure is demonstrated in a rat model of transaortic banding by RNAi targeting of phospholamban, a key regulator of cardiac Ca2+ homeostasis and shows for the first time the high efficacy of an RNAi therapeutic strategy in a cardiac disease.
Journal ArticleDOI

Emerging roles of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate signaling in cardiac myocytes

TL;DR: Intriguingly, expression of both IP(3)Rs and membrane receptors that couple to PLC/IP(2) signaling is altered in cardiac disease such as atrial fibrillation or heart failure, suggesting the involvement of IP( 3) signaling in the pathology of these diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

Na+-dependent SR Ca2+ overload induces arrhythmogenic events in mouse cardiomyocytes with a human CPVT mutation

TL;DR: In this article, a human RyR2-mediated sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release in response to SR Ca 2+ overload during β-adrenergic stimulation was investigated in the absence and presence of 1 µmol/L JTV-519 (RyR2 stabilizer) followed by 100 µmol /L ouabain intervention to increase cytosolic [Na+] and SR Ca2 + load.
