Drs. Xander Wehrens and Andrew Marks have gathered the collected wisdom of scientists that have devoted their working lives to the study of ryanodine receptors. In this series of brief, but informative, chapters, the contributions progress from the basic gene family and primary structure, through its 3D structure so far, to its regulation and physiology. The book ends with several chapters on mutations in the receptor that causes disease and their role in adaptation to disease. There are interesting new developments in the control of ryanodine receptors by accessory proteins, the latest of which is the proposed role of leaky RyR channels in causing delayed afterdepolarizations, a cause of lethal ventricular arrhythmias. The series of reviews in Ryanodine Receptors: Structure, Function and Dysfunction in Clinical Disease will bring anyone rapidly up to speed in current progress in the field, as well as highlight remaining questions. David E. Clapham, MD, PhDProfessor of Neurobiology and PediatricsHarvard Medical School TOC:Evolution of the ryanodine receptor gene family.- Topology and transmembrane organization of ryanodine receptors.- Three-dimensional reconstruction of ryanodine receptors.- RyR-DHPR relationships in skeletal and cardiac muscles.- The pore of the ryanodine receptor channel.- Inter-molecular domain-domain interaction: A key mechanism for calcium channel regulation of ryanodine receptors.- Regulation of sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium release by luminal calcium.- Cytosolic calcium regulation of single ryanodine receptor channels.- Elementary calcium release events: ryanodine receptor Ca2+ sparks.- Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum in intact cardiomyocytes.- Stability and instability of Ca2+ release from the SR.- Ryanodine receptors in smooth muscle.- Functions of RyR3 homologues.- Knockout mice lacking RyR and junctophilin subtypes.- Regulation of ryanodine receptor Ca22+ release by macromolecular complexes.- RyR1 modulation by calmodulin.- Ryanodine receptor function in inflammation.- Ryanoids, receptor affinity and RyR channel subconductance: Why the discordance?- Scorpion peptides as high-affinity probes of ryanodine receptor function.- Redox sensing by the ryanodine receptors.- Ryanodine receptor dysfunctin in the diabetic heart.- Molecular and clinical genetics of RyR1 disorders.- Pathophysiology of muscle disorders linked to mutations in the skeletal muscle ryanodine receptor.- The dantrolene binding site on RyR1: Implications for clinical therapy.- Ryanodine receptor dysfunction in heart failure and arrhythmias.- Stabilization of ryanodine receptor as a novel therapeutic strategy against heart failure.- Ryanodine receptor antibodies and myasthenia gravis. eBook Springer PDF, Springer, 16.01.2006, Springer, 2006<
