Lysosomal signaling pathways influence heart rhythm, and regulate atrial function

AIMS: In the heart, endogenous nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NAADP) triggers lysosomal calcium (Ca2+) release to augment sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca2+ sequestration, producing larger Ca2+ transients. However, the role of lysosomal Ca2+ signals in pacemaker act...

Parallelised detection of bacteria viability using an electrode array and the Exeter Multiscope

Abstract Antimicrobial resistance remains a global existential threat. Given that antimicrobial therapy commonly starts before pathogen identification, rapid and scalable methods capable of determining effective antimicrobial compounds are needed. In this paper, we demonstrate a...
