Urocortin Role in Ischemia Cardioprotection and the Adverse Cardiac Remodeling
(MDPI, 2021-11-09)
Despite the considerable progress in strategies of myocardial protection, ischemic heart diseases (IHD) and consequent heart failure (HF) remain the main cause of mortality worldwide. Several procedures are used routinely ...

Orai1 and TRPC1 Proteins Co-localize with CaV1.2 Channels to Form a Signal Complex in Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells
(American Society for Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, 2016)
Voltage-dependent CaV1.2 L-type Ca2 channels (LTCC) are the main route for calcium entry in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). Several studies have also determined the relevant role of store-operated Ca2 channels ...

Urocortin-1 Mediated Cardioprotection Involves XIAP and CD40-Ligand Recovery Role of EPAC2 and ERK12
(Public Library of Science, 2016)
Urocortin-1 (Ucn-1) is an endogenous peptide that protects heart from ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) injuries. Ucn-1 is known to prevent cardiac cell death, but its role in the transcription of specific genes related to ...

Urocortin-2 Prevents Dysregulation of Ca2+ Homeostasis and Improves Early Cardiac Remodeling After Ischemia and Reperfusion
(Frontiers Research Foundation, 2018-07-03)
Aims: Urocortin-2 (Ucn-2) is a potent cardioprotector against Ischemia and Reperfusion (I/R) injuries. However, little is known about its role in the regulation of intracellular Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]i) under I/R. Here, ...
