Impaired Activity of Ryanodine Receptors Contributes to Calcium Mishandling in Cardiomyocytes of Metabolic Syndrome Rats
Conclusion
Principal findings of this work are that abnormal Ca2+ transient amplitude, contractile dysfunction; and impaired relaxation of MetS cardiomyocytes underlies intrinsic dysfunctional RyR2 and SERCA pump. Abnormal activity of RyRs was evidenced by its decreased ability to bind [3H]-ryanodine. Although the MetS condition does not modify RyR2 protein expression, its phosphorylation at Ser2814 is decreased, which impairs its capacity for activation during ECC. The dysfunctional RyRs, together with a decreased activity of SERCA pump due to decreased Thr17-PLN phosphorylation suggest a downregulation of CaMKII in MetS...

South Carolina Is FED UP
When asked to speak for a group of third and fourth graders about making "healthy choices," I picked the topic that most children have in common ... sugar! I began our discussion with one simple question.
"If your parents came into the room and saw you eating out of the sugar bowl, what would they say?"
One young man stated it best. "Are you crazy? Put that spoon down!"
"Why would your parents say that?" I asked.
Another little girl could barely contain herself. Waving her hand furiously she blurted out, "Because all that sugar is bad for you!"
Out of the mouths of babes. When I talk to children, teens or adults,...

Any defence of sugar is pure confection | Aseem Malhotra
More and more people are challenging the food industry's PR machine. The evidence shows that sugar, not fat, is the enemyThe public health minister, Anna Soubry, has commented that the poor are more likely to be obese. It is well known that social status is linked to health, but her comments were also motivated by a mentality that victimises the most vulnerable. She should really be directing her criticism at the food industry. There is no doubt that an oversupply of cheap junk food fuelled by unregulated and irresponsible marketing limits our ability to make healthy choices. But there is an equally important question that...
