Disease relevance of Sln

 

High impact information on Sln

  • Cardiac-specific overexpression of sarcolipin in phospholamban null mice impairs myocyte function that is restored by phosphorylation [2].
  • Cardiac-specific overexpression of sarcolipin inhibits sarco(endo)plasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA2a) activity and impairs cardiac function in mice [3].
  • Sarcolipin retention in the endoplasmic reticulum depends on its C-terminal RSYQY sequence and its interaction with sarco(endo)plasmic Ca(2+)-ATPases [4].
  • The role of sarcolipin (SLN) in cardiac physiology was critically evaluated by generating a transgenic (TG) mouse model in which the SLN to sarco(endoplasmic)reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) ATPase (SERCA) ratio was increased in the ventricle [5].
  • Targeted overexpression of sarcolipin in the mouse heart decreases sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium transport and cardiac contractility [5].
 

Biological context of Sln

 

Anatomical context of Sln

  • In humans, sarcolipin mRNA was also expressed in the atria but not detected in the ventricles, although sarcolipin expression was most abundant in skeletal muscle [6].
  • TAC significantly decreased the expression of sarcolipin, SERCA2a, and phospholamban mRNAs in the left atrium (LA) than those in the right atrium (RA) [7].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Sln

  • Northern blot analysis revealed that the expression of mouse sarcolipin mRNA was most abundant in the atria and was undetectable in the ventricles, indicating an atrial chamber-specific expression pattern [6].
