Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the failing heart, the Ca2+ pumping activity of the intracellular Ca2+ storage site, the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR), is significantly reduced, resulting in dysfunction of cardiomyocytes due to intracellular Ca2+ overload. The Ca2+ pumping activity of SR is regulated by phospholamban, which is a potential target to the treatment of heart failure. Here we studied a phospholamban inhibitor which augments the Ca2+ pumping activity of SR, including a phospholamban aptamer. Our results including optimization of a phospholamban aptamer provide a basis for the development of new therapeutic agents for heart failure.
