Single-cell expression analysis of BMP15 and GDF9 in mature oocytes and BMPR2 in cumulus cells of women with polycystic ovary syndrome undergoing controlled ovarian hyperstimulation.

Journal of assisted reproduction and genetics ·doi:10.1007/s10815-012-9825-8

PurposeTo detect expression of bone morphogenetic protein 15 (BMP15) and growth differentiation factor 9 (GDF9) in oocytes, and their receptor type 2 receptor for BMPs (BMPR2) in cumulus cells in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) …

NFATc3-dependent loss of I(to) gradient across the left ventricular wall during chronic beta adrenergic stimulation.

Journal of molecular and cellular cardiology ·doi:10.1016/j.yjmcc.2008.10.016

In heart, pore-forming Kv4 alpha channel subunits underlie the K(+) transient outward current (I(to)). Expression of Kv4 is greater in left ventricular epicardial (EPI) than in endocardial (ENDO) cells, resulting in larger I(to) in EPI than…

Differential calcineurin/NFATc3 activity contributes to the Ito transmural gradient in the mouse heart.

Circulation research ·doi:10.1161/01.res.0000222028.92993.10

Kv4 channels are differentially expressed across the mouse left ventricular free wall. Accordingly, the transient outward K+ current (Ito), which is produced by Kv4 channels, is greater in left ventricular epicardial (EPI) than in endocardi…
