Circ Genom Precis Med . 2025 Jan; 18(1):e004412. PMID: 39851047
Background: Protein-truncating mutations in the titin gene are associated with increased risk of atrial fibrillation. However, little is known about the underlying pathophysiology. Methods: We identified a heterozygous titin truncating...

Mitochondrial creatine kinase (mtCK) regulates the "fast" export of phosphocreatine to support cytoplasmic phosphorylation of ADP to ATP which is more rapid than direct ATP export. Such "creatine-dependent" phosphate shuttling...

J Physiol . 2024 Feb; 602(4):569-596. PMID: 38319954
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a supraventricular tachyarrhythmia that is strongly associated with cardiovascular (CV) disease and sedentary lifestyles. Despite the benefits of exercise on overall health, AF incidence in high-level...

A comprehensive view of the role of NLRP3/caspase-1/GSDMD-mediated pyroptosis in pressure overload cardiac hypertrophy is presented in this study. Furthermore, mitigation of NLRP3 deficiency-induced pyroptosis confers cardioprotection against pressure overload...

Cardiovasc Res . 2023 Sep; 119(16):2607-2622. PMID: 37713664
Aims: Endurance exercise is associated with an increased risk of atrial fibrillation (AF). We previously established that adverse atrial remodelling and AF susceptibility induced by intense exercise in mice require...
