Recent studies suggested that transmitters released from the sympathetic nerve terminals can modulate various inflammatory responses by occupation of receptors on immune cells. These neurotransmitters act via alteration of intracellular concentration of second messengers. For instance, intracellular calcium as a

Diabetic cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a serious complication of diabetes that can lead to heart failure and death, for which there is no effective treatment. Rhynchophylline (Rhy) is the main effective component of the Chinese herbal medicine Uncaria rhynchophylla, which mainly
Doxorubicin (Dox) is a potent chemotherapeutic agent, but its usage is limited by dose-dependent cardiotoxicity. Intracellular calcium dysregulation has been reported to be involved in doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy (DICM). The cardioprotective role of RyR stabilizer dantrolene (Dan) on the calcium dynamics

1. Intracellular calcium has been suggested to be an important mediator of the cellular response in endotoxaemia and shock. Dantrolene is an agent that interferes with intracellular calcium fluxes resulting in a decreased availability of calcium in the cytoplasm. Here
