A peptide mimetic of the connexin43 carboxyl terminus reduces gap junction remodeling and induced arrhythmia following ventricular injury.
MouseOtherFemaleLocal (adherent methylcellulose patch releasing peptide over <48 h)At time of cryoinjury
Model: Left ventricular cryoinjury
alphaCT1 preserved Cx43 at intercalated disks, reduced gap junction remodeling and lowered inducible arrhythmia after ventricular injury.
