Pharmacological Modulation of the Ca2+/cAMP/Adenosine Signaling in Cardiac Cells as a New Cardioprotective Strategy to Reduce Severe Arrhythmias in Myocardial Infarction

45 views | Dec 18 2023

The study demonstrates that blocking L-type Ca2+ channels attenuates cardiac arrhythmias induced by acute myocardial infarction, implicating the Ca2+/cAMP/adenosine signaling pathway as a promising therapeutic target to reduce severe and fatal arrhythmias in humans. [Read the Full Post]

Simulated microgravity-induced oxidative stress and loss of osteogenic potential of osteoblasts can be prevented by protection of primary cilia

33 views | Dec 09 2023

Microgravity-induced shortening of primary cilia triggers overexpression and hyperactivity of TRPV4 channels, leading to intracellular Ca2+ overload, oxidative stress, and loss of osteogenic potential in osteoblasts, a process preventable by protecting primary cilia. [Read the Full Post]
