Structure and Function of Cardiac Troponin C (TNNC1): Implications for Heart Failure, Cardiomyopathies, and Troponin Modulating Drugs
Download2015-01-01
Li, Monica X., Hwang, Peter M.
In striated muscle, the protein troponin complex turns contraction on and off in a calcium-dependent manner. The calcium-sensing component of the complex is troponin C, which is expressed from the TNNC1 gene in both cardiac muscle and slow-twitch skeletal muscle (identical transcript in both...

Structure and proteolytic susceptibility of the inhibitory C-terminal tail of cardiac troponin I
Download2019-01-01
Mahmud, Zabed, Zahran, Somaya, Liu, Philip B., Reiz, Bela, Chan, Brandon Y.H., Roczkowsky, Andrej, McCartney, Christian-Scott E., Davies, Peter L., Li, Liang, Schulz, Richard, Hwang, Peter M.
Background Cardiac troponin I (cTnI) has two flexible tails that control the cardiac cycle. The C-terminal tail, cTnI135-209, binds actin to shut off cardiac muscle contraction, whereas the competing calcium-dependent binding of the switch region, cTnI146-158, by cardiac troponin C (cTnC)...

Cai, Fangze, Li, Monica X., Pineda-Sanbria, Sandra E., Gelozia, Shorena, Lindert, Steffen, West, Frederick, Sykes, Brian D., Hwang, Peter M.
In cardiac and skeletal muscle, the troponin complex turns muscle contraction on and off in a calcium-dependent manner. Many small molecules are known to bind to the troponin complex to modulate its calcium binding affinity, and this may be useful in a broad range of conditions in which striated...

Students’ perceptions of learning environment and theirleisure-time exercise in medical school: Does sportbackground matter?
Download2020-02-03
Babenko, Oksana, Mosewich, Amber, Sloychuk, Janelle
The effectiveness of medical school efforts in addressing suboptimal student wellbeing rests, in part, on how students perceive their learning environment. The study aim was to determine whether students’ sport background was a contributing factor in students’ perceptions of the medical program...

The Influence of Students’ Perceptions of Learning Environment on Coping with Academic Challenges: A Structural Equation Modeling Study
Download2019-09-20
Rashid, Marghalara, Guo, Qi, Babenko, Oksana
Theory: Self-compassion has been identified as a promising interventional target enabling medical learners to respond effectively to stressors and challenges of medical training. Determining factors in the learning environment that support self-compassion is critical for developing such...

The roles of basic psychological needs, self-compassion, and self-efficacy in the development of mastery goals among medical students
Download2019-04-01
Aim: Competency-based medical education aims to foster mastery goals in learners. We examined medical students’ mastery approach (beneficial) and mastery avoidance (maladaptive) goals and their associations with students’ basic psychological needs, self-compassion, and self-efficacy. Methods:...

TIMP1 and MMP9 are predictors of mortality in septic patients in the emergency department and intensive care unit unlike MMP9/TIMP1 ratio: Multivariate model
Download2017-01-01
Niño, Maria Eugenia, Serrano, Sergio Eduardo, Niño, Daniela Camila, McCosham, Diana Margarita, Cardenas, Maria Eugenia, Villareal, Vivian Poleth, Schulz, Richard
Matrix metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases could be promising biomarkers for establishing prognosis during the development of sepsis. It is necessary to clarify the relationship between matrix metalloproteinases and their tissue inhibitors. We conducted a cohort study...
