Relevance: We are at the dawn of a new era of effective pharmacotherapies for HoFH patients, with new agents providing an LDL-receptor independent cholesterol reduction. In this context, the present review provides a summary of the currently available therapies and emerging therapeutic agents for the management of patients with HoFH, in light...

Empagliflozin attenuates arrhythmogenesis in diabetic cardiomyopathy by normalizing intracellular Ca2+ handling in ventricular cardiomyocytes | American Journal of Physiology-Heart and Circulatory Physiology

Source : https://journals.physiology.org/doi/abs/10.1152/ajpheart.00391.2022

Diabetic cardiomyopathy has been reported to increase the risk of fatal ventricular arrhythmia. The beneficial effects of the selective sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitor have not been fully examined in the...



Conclusion: EMPA attenuated ventricular arrhythmia inducibility by normalizing the intracellular Ca2 handling, and we speculated that this effect was, at least partly, due to the inhibition of O-GlcNAcylation via the suppression of glucose uptake into cardiomyocytes.
