Modulating Activity of Calcium Release Channels
Using a new assay for drug development (see Abrj-01), PSU researchers have developed new compounds that may prove useful in the treatment of heart arrhythmia. Ventricular arrhythmias appear to be caused by a calcium leak from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in cardiac muscle, and arrhythmias often lead to heart failure. Drugs that prevent and treat arrhythmias...

Screen for Redox Activity of Compounds
The design of new and effective drugs is a multi-billion dollar business, requiring great expense and extensive testing of drug candidate compounds. Obtaining a better understanding of the pharmacodynamics and mechanisms of action of drug candidates is an important and necessary step in optimizing any lead compound. A property of increasing...
