Ryanodine receptor expression in trophoblasts
… is essential in fetal skeleton formation. Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are high conductance cation channels that mediate Ca2+ release from intracellular stores to the cytoplasm. To date, the roles of RyRs in trophoblasts have not been reported. By use of reverse transcription PCR and western …

Modulation of neuronal ryanodine receptor-mediated calcium signaling by calsenilin
… show that calsenilin directly interacts with the ryanodine receptor (RyR) modulating Ca2+ release from this intracellular Ca2+-activated Ca2+ release channel. Co-expression, co-localization, and protein-protein interaction of calsenilin and RyR in primary neurons and in central nervous system …

Expression and functional analysis of murine ryanodine receptor type 3
Ryanodine receptors (RyRs) are intracellular homotetrameric Ca<sup>2+</sup>-release channels constituting a family of three different isoforms, named RyRl, RyR2 and RyR3. RyRl and RyR2 are highly expressed in skeletal and cardiac muscles respectively, where they localize in the terminal cisternae …

In vitro exploration of interactions between junctin and the Ryanodine receptor from skeletal and cardiac muscle
… store, the Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR), through Ryanodine receptor Ca2+ release channels (RyRs). In the resting state, striated muscle requires a tight control of Ca2+ release through RyRs. Another SR bound protein, junctin, is thought to facilitate this. Located in both skeletal and cardiac …

Functional Importance of Oxidative Post-Translational Modifications of Ryanodine Receptor in Cardiac Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Ca2+ Handling During Oxidative Stress
… that initiates muscle contraction in the heart. Ryanodine receptor (RyR2) acts as the primary Sarcoplasmic Reticulum (SR) Ca2+ release channel in the heart. In the event that intracellular SR Ca2+ handling is compromised, both the contractility and electrical excitability of the heart can be …

Cholinergic Regulation of Circadian Rhythms in the SCN: Characterization of Signaling Mechanisms and the Role of Intracellular Calcium in the Directionality of Clock Resetting
… cholinergic phase advance, while InsP3 , but not ryanodine, receptor antagonists block it. In contrast, selective activation of CICR with ryanodine results in glutamate-like delay. Ca 2+ imaging using multiphoton microscopy revealed signal-specific differences in Ca2+ transients. …

Neuronal Calcium Regulation and Cellular Stress in a Malignant Hyperthermia Disease Model
… One indispensible Ca2+ signaling protein is the ryanodine receptor (RyR) calcium release channel. RyR1 is essential for muscle contraction, and RyR1mutations can lead to severe muscle disorders such as malignant hyperthermia (MH). Recently, a mouse model of human MH (Y522S-RyR1) has been …

Quercetin and chloroquine synergistically induces cell death in glioma cells via the increase of Ca2+ and ROS levels
… CQ was effectively inhibited by dantrolene (a ryanodine receptor antagonist) and RU-360 (an inhibitor of mitochondrial uniporter), suggesting that the release of Ca2+ from the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria Ca2+ influx may be critically involved in this cell death. In addition, combined …

The effects of Tumour necrosis factor-alpha and Interleukin-1-beta on intracellular calcium handling and contractility in sheep ventricular myocytes
… model then investigated their effects on the ryanodine receptor (RyR) and myofilament sensitivity to calcium.Sheep ventricular myocytes were used for all experiments. All procedures used accord with the Animals (Scientific Procedures) Act, UK, 1986 and Directive 2010/63/EU of the European …

Yeast two-hybrid analysis of skeletal muscle triad junction proteins
… was detected between the dihydropyridine receptor (DHPR) II-III loop and the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor (RyR); however, a possible weak interaction between physiologically important parts of the two receptors was investigated. In screens of a skeletal muscle cDNA library, no …

Spring Forward or Fall Back? Redox State as a Determinant in Glutamate Signaling Pathways Adjusting Our Brain Clock
… downstream of glutamate have been identified as ryanodine receptor (RyR) and soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC), in the early night and late night, respectively. However, the determinant of this signaling-pathway bifurcation remains unknown. I tested the hypothesis that cellular redox state …

Up-regulation of junctophilin-2 prevents ER stress and apoptosis in hypoxia/reoxygenation-stimulated H9c2 cells
… we reveal that up-regulation of JPH2 reduces ryanodine receptor-2 (RyR2)-mediated SR Ca2+ leak and inhibits calcium-dependent calpain activation in H/R-stimulated cardiomyocytes. Lastly, up-regulation of JPH2 prevents endoplasmic reticulum stress in response to H/R. In summary, we demonstrate …

Modulation of calcium signalling in human sperm by nitric oxide
… in human sperm, by a mechanism involving ryanodine receptor (RyR) activation. Pre-treatment with NO reduced the amplitude of the Ca\(^{2+}\) response to ryanodine (a RyR agonist), suggesting convergence of the actions of NO and ryanodine. Sperm pre-treatment with NO greatly enhanced the …

Non-genomic control of neuronal calcium signaling by the steroid hormone estrogen leads to neuroprotective effects
… the correction of calcium imbalance caused by ryanodine receptor malfunction. The estrogen receptor is thought to elicit this estrogenic protection by acting as a nuclear transcription factor and increasing the expression of anti-apoptotic proteins. However, the estrogen receptor also has …
