1 Heart failure

What is heart failure?

The main function of the heart is to pump blood, providing power to promote blood circulation to meet the metabolic needs of tissue cells throughout the body.

Heart failure is when the heart's systolic or diastolic function declines, resulting in a failure of cardiac output to meet the body's metabolic needs. Heart failure is the severe and terminal stage of various heart diseases. According to the patients at all stages, patients including hypertension, coronary heart disease and diabetes are at risk of heart failure.

What is RyR2? What is it made up of?

To identify the epitopes recognized by AR185, phage clones were isolated by panning the PhD.-7 phage display peptide library with AR185. Three rounds of selection were performed, and, at each round, the library was pre-cleared with a control AR177 nanobody. After the third round of panning, the binding of the isolated phage clones to AR185 was determined by ELISA. Sequence analysis of AR185-positive phage clones identified five and six distinct amino acid sequences, respectively (fig. S2). Alignment of these sequences revealed the consensus motifs DKLAC, which could be aligned with the (2725) DKLAN (2729) sequence located at P2 Domain of RyR2.
