J Gen Physiol . 2024 Dec; 157(1). PMID: 39661086
Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a highly prevalent and genetically heterogeneous condition that results in decreased contractility and impaired cardiac function. The FK506-binding protein FKBP12 has been implicated in regulating the...

Spielmann N, Miller G, Oprea T, Hsu C, Fobo G, Frishman G, et al.
Nat Cardiovasc Res . 2024 Aug; 1(2):157-173. PMID: 39195995
Clinical presentation of congenital heart disease is heterogeneous, making identification of the disease-causing genes and their genetic pathways and mechanisms of action challenging. By using in vivo electrocardiography, transthoracic echocardiography...

Rana S, Canfield J, Ward C, Sprague J
Sci Rep . 2024 Jun; 14(1):14485. PMID: 38914648
Hyperthermia induced by phenethylamines, such as 3,4-methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), can lead to life-threatening complications and death. Activation of the sympathetic nervous system and subsequent release of norepinephrine and activation of uncoupling...

Commun Biol . 2023 Sep; 6(1):942. PMID: 37709832
Here we show that striated muscle preferentially expressed protein kinase α (Spegα) maintains cardiac function in hearts with Spegβ deficiency. Speg is required for stability of excitation-contraction coupling (ECC) complexes...
