Abstract —Collateral effects of exogenous sarcoendoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ ATPase (SERCA) expression were characterized in neonatal rat and chicken embryo cardiac myocytes, and the conditions required to produce acceleration of Ca 2+ transients with minimal toxicity were established. Cultured myocytes were infected with adenovirus vector carrying the cDNA of wild-type SERCA1, an inactive SERCA1 mutant, or enhanced green fluorescence protein under control of the cytomegalovirus promoter. Controls were ...

1 Sarco-endoplasmic reticulum Ca2+-ATPase from fast skeletal (SERCA1) or cardiac muscle (SERCA2a) was expressed in embryonic chicken and neonatal rat cardiac myocytes by adenovirus vectors, with c-myc tags on both constructs to compare expression and distinguish exogenous from endogenous SERCA2a in myocytes. 2 Expression of the two isoforms was similar (approximately 3-fold higher than endogenous SERCA). However, SERCA1 activity was 2-fold greater than SERCA2a activity, due to intrinsic differences ...

Cultured COS-1 cells, as well as chicken embryonic and neonatal rat cardiac myocytes, were infected with recombinant adenovirus vectors to define limiting factors in the expression and Ca 2+ transport function of recombinant sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ (SERCA) isoforms. Titration experiments showed that all COS-1 cells and myocytes in culture could be infected by an adenovirus titer of 10 plaque-forming units (pfu) per seeded cell. Raising the adenovirus titer further yielded higher protein ...

Antisynthetase syndrome (ASSD) is a rare autoimmune disease characterized by serologic positivity for antisynthetase antibodies. Anti-Jo1 is the most frequent, followed by anti PL-7, anti PL-12, anti EJ, and anti OJ antibodies. The lung is the most frequently affected organ, usually manifesting with an interstitial lung disease (ILD), which is considered the main determinant of prognosis. Some evidences suggest that non-anti-Jo-1 antibodies may be associated with more severe lung involvement and possibly ...

The four homochiral 4-deoxy-4,4-difluoromuscarine stereoisomers (difluoromuscarines) were prepared in very high enantiomeric excess. A convenient sequence based on the use of natural as well as "unnatural" ethyl lactate allowed the synthesis of target compounds, whose absolute configuration is dictated by that of the starting synthon. Quaternary ammonium salts (+)-5, (−)-5, (−)-6, and (+)-6 were tested in vitro on guinea pig tissues, and their muscarinic potency was evaluated at M2 (heart) and M3 (ileum and bladder) ...

Polyarteritis nodosa (PAN) is a systemic vasculitis affecting the small- and medium-sized arteries that may present with hearing impairment. In rare cases, PAN may be associated with progressive labyrinthitis ossificans (LO), an otologic emergency requiring early cochlear implantation (CI) to restore hearing before the complete, irreversible cochlear ossification. We report the first case in the literature of a patient affected by PAN with bilateral sudden sensorineural hearing loss and rapid LO who ...

Wind-turbines represent an important means to extract energy from the environment in a 'green' manner. The concept of extracting energy from the wind dates back thousands of years, including not only power generation (e.g. mills, water pumps) but also direct locomotion (e.g. sailing). Modern wind-energy technology relies on efficient aerodynamic design and durable mechanical systems.
