Remodelling of potassium currents underlies arrhythmic action potential prolongation under beta-adrenergic stimulation in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
2022, Journal of Molecular and Cellular CardiologyCitation Excerpt :β-ARS models are largely based on data from other species, reparametrized to human cardiomyocytes. Therefore, differences on distinct ion channel conformations [52], different molecular processes involved in β-ARS [29,53], or distinct densities and locations of β-ARS receptors [54], require further investigations. Data availability regarding myosin binding protein-C and titin phosphorylation [55] would enable implementing these targets in the β-ARS model, qualifying it for quantitative investigations of β-ARS response in active tension.
Use of beta-blockers for the treatment of cardiac arrest due to ventricular fibrillation/pulseless ventricular tachycardia: A systematic review
2012, ResuscitationCitation Excerpt :There are several differences in β-receptors between species, as well as cardiac function and response to CPR procedures.50 There are marked differences, for example, among the proportion of β1 and β2-receptors,51,52 which could account for diverging results in some of the studies cited, namely in the reports from Strohmenger et al.30 and Hilwig et al.11 It is noteworthy that, even though these studies failed to show a benefit on the use of beta-blockers during CPR, both of them indicate that it is a safe strategy and seem not to change the outcome of CPR.11,30 Even so, many evidences have been accumulating over the years, with elucidation of many mechanisms behind the benefits of β-blockade during CPR.
The increase in rat ventricular automaticity induced by salbutamol is mediated through β<inf>1</inf>- but not β<inf>2</inf>-adrenoceptors: Role of phosphodiesterases
2011, Life SciencesCitation Excerpt :Differences in functions and density of β-AR among species have been reported. For example, β2-AR density is higher in primate than in rodent myocardium (Cui et al., 1996). Also, direct β2-AR activation enhances contractility in human myocardium (Schäfers et al., 1994), but in rodents β2-AR stimulation only increase cardiac inotropy after inhibition of PDEs (Gonzalez-Muñoz et al., 2009) or Gi protein (Xiao et al., 1995).
The potential beneficial effects of beta adrenergic blockade in the treatment of ventricular fibrillation
2009, European Journal of PharmacologyLate-stage alterations in myofibrillar contractile function in a transgenic mouse model of dilated cardiomyopathy (Tgαq*44)
2008, Journal of Molecular and Cellular CardiologyCitation Excerpt :Surprisingly, the observed increased Ca2+sensitivity of force production suggested a deficit of PKA-mediated intracellular phosphorylation rather than PKC activation during the development of DCM in this model. Differences in the expression and phosphorylation levels of contractile proteins and β-receptor coupling of rodent and human hearts [25–27] limit direct extrapolation of our model experiments to humans. Nevertheless, the decreased PKA-mediated contractile protein phosphorylation is in accordance with a number of independent investigations on DCM in humans, and thereby points to a possible role of decreased PKA activation in the pathogenesis of DCM.
