TNFα Modulates Cardiac Conduction by Altering Electrical Coupling between Myocytes

Background: Tumor Necrosis Factor α (TNFα) upregulation during acute inflammatory response has been associated with numerous cardiac effects including modulating Connexin43 and vascular permeability. This may in turn alter cardiac gap junctional (GJ) coupling and extracellular volume (ephaptic coupling) respectively. We hypothesized that acute exposure to pathophysiological TNFα levels can modu...

Epigenetic regulation of canonical TNFα pathway by HDAC1 determines survival of cardiac myocytes.

Gene transcription is regulated by post-translation modifications. Histone deacetylases (HDACs) remove acetyl groups from histone and non-histone factors inhibiting transcription. Proinflammatory cytokines such as TNFα activate the canonical nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway. Earlier we established a cytoprotective role for NF-κB in the heart. Though a causal relationship for HDAC1 and NF-κB ha...

Inhibition of L-type calcium current by tramadol and enantiomers in cardiac myocytes from rats.

BACKGROUND Tramadol is a centrally acting analgesic, whose mechanism of action involves opioid-receptor activation. Previously, we have shown that tramadol and its enantiomers had a negative inotropic effect on the papillary muscle in which the (+)-enantiomer is more potent than (-)- and (±)-tramadol. OBJECTIVE In this study, we investigated the effects of tramadol and its enantiomers on L-ty...

Suppression of endothelial cell activity by inhibition of TNFα

INTRODUCTION TNFα is a proinflammatory cytokine that plays a central role in the pathogenesis of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). We investigated the effects of certolizumab pegol, a TNFα blocker, on endothelial cell function and angiogenesis. METHODS Human dermal microvascular endothelial cells (HMVECs) were stimulated with TNFα with or without certolizumab pegol. TNFα-induced adhesion molecule ex...

Enhanced inhibition of L-type calcium currents by troglitazone in streptozotocin-induced diabetic rat cardiac ventricular myocytes.

1. Troglitazone, an insulin-sensitizing agent shown to improve cardiac function in both experimental animals and patients with diabetes, inhibits voltage-dependent L-type Ca(2+) currents (I(Ca,L)) in cardiac myocytes, which may underlie its cardioprotective effects. However, inhibition by troglitazone of I(Ca,L) in diabetic cardiac myocytes has not been characterized. 2. Using whole-cell voltag...
