Abstract
The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RyR2) is an intracellular Ca2+ release channel vital for the function of the heart. Physiologically, RyR2 is triggered to release Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) which enables cardiac contraction; however, spontaneous Ca2+ leak from RyR2 has been implicated in the pathophysiology of heart failure (HF). RyR2 channels have been well documented to assemble into clusters within the SR membrane, with the organisation of RyR2 clusters recently gaining interest as a mechanism by which the occurrence of pathological Ca2+ leak is regulated, including in HF. In this review, we explain the terminology relating to key nanoscale RyR2 clustering properties as both single clusters and functionally grouped Ca2+ release units, with a focus on the advancements in super-resolution imaging approaches which have enabled the detailed study of cluster organisation. Further, we discuss proposed mechanisms for modulating RyR2 channel organisation and the debate regarding the potential impact of cluster organisation on Ca2+ leak activity. Finally, recent experimental evidence investigating the nanoscale remodelling and functional alterations of RyR2 clusters in HF is discussed with consideration of the clinical implications.

Abstract
The ryanodine receptor type 2 (RyR) is a key player in Ca2+ handling during excitation-contraction coupling. During each heartbeat, RyR channels are responsible for linking the action potential with the contractile machinery of the cardiomyocyte by releasing Ca2+ from the sarcoplasmic reticulum. RyR function is fine-tuned by associated signalling molecules, arrangement in clusters and subcellular localization. These parameters together define RyR function within microdomains and are subject to disease remodelling. This review describes the latest findings on RyR microdomain organization, the alterations with disease which result in increased subcellular heterogeneity and emergence of microdomains with enhanced arrhythmogenic potential, and presents novel technologies that guide future research to study and target RyR channels within specific microdomains.

Abstract
Heart failure is a complex medical syndrome that is attributed to a number of risk factors; nevertheless, its clinical presentation is quite similar among the different etiologies. Heart failure displays a rapidly increasing prevalence due to the aging of the population and the success of medical treatment and devices. The pathophysiology of heart failure comprises several mechanisms, such as activation of neurohormonal systems, oxidative stress, dysfunctional calcium handling, impaired energy utilization, mitochondrial dysfunction, and inflammation, which are also implicated in the development of endothelial dysfunction. Heart failure with reduced ejection fraction is usually the result of myocardial loss, which progressively ends in myocardial remodeling. On the other hand, heart failure with preserved ejection fraction is common in patients with comorbidities such as diabetes mellitus, obesity, and hypertension, which trigger the creation of a micro-environment of chronic, ongoing inflammation. Interestingly, endothelial dysfunction of both peripheral vessels and coronary epicardial vessels and microcirculation is a common characteristic of both categories of heart failure and has been associated with worse cardiovascular outcomes. Indeed, exercise training and several heart failure drug categories display favorable effects against endothelial dysfunction apart from their established direct myocardial benefit.

The function and regulation of calsequestrin-2: implications in calcium-mediated arrhythmias. Biophys Rev 2022; 14:329-352.

Abstract
Cardiac arrhythmias are life-threatening events in which the heart develops an irregular rhythm. Mishandling of Ca2+ within the myocytes of the heart has been widely demonstrated to be an underlying mechanism of arrhythmogenesis. This includes altered function of the ryanodine receptor (RyR2)-the primary Ca2+ release channel located to the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR). The spontaneous leak of SR Ca2+ via RyR2 is a well-established contributor in the development of arrhythmic contractions. This leak is associated with increased channel activity in response to changes in SR Ca2+ load. RyR2 activity can be regulated through several avenues, including interactions with numerous accessory proteins. One such protein is calsequestrin-2 (CSQ2), which is the primary Ca2+-buffering protein within the SR. The capacity of CSQ2 to buffer Ca2+ is tightly associated with the ability of the protein to polymerise in response to changing Ca2+ levels. CSQ2 can itself be regulated through phosphorylation and glycosylation modifications, which impact protein polymerisation and trafficking. Changes in CSQ2 modifications are implicated in cardiac pathologies, while mutations in CSQ2 have been identified in arrhythmic patients. Here, we review the role of CSQ2 in arrhythmogenesis including evidence for the indirect and direct regulation of RyR2 by CSQ2, and the consequences of a loss of functional CSQ2 in Ca2+ homeostasis and Ca2+-mediated arrhythmias.

Abstract
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT), a rare autosomal dominant or recessive disease, usually results in syncope or sudden cardiac death. Most CPVT patients do not show abnormal cardiac structure and electrocardiogram features and symptoms, usually onset during adrenergically mediated physiological conditions. CPVT tends to occur at a younger age and is not easy to be diagnosed and managed. The main cause of CPVT is associated with mishandling Ca2+ in cardiomyocytes. Intracellular Ca2+ is strictly controlled by a protein located in the sarcoplasm reticulum (SR), such as ryanodine receptor, histidine-rich Ca2+-binding protein, triadin, and junctin. Mutation in these proteins results in misfolding or malfunction of these proteins, thereby affecting their Ca2+-binding affinity, and subsequently disturbs Ca2+ homeostasis during excitation–contraction coupling (E-C coupling). Furthermore, transient disturbance of Ca2+ homeostasis increases membrane potential and causes Ca2+ store overload-induced Ca2+ release, which in turn leads to delayed after depolarization and arrhythmia. Previous studies have focused on the interaction between ryanodine receptors and protein kinase or phosphatase in the cytosol. However, recent studies showed the regulation signaling for ryanodine receptor not only from the cytosol but also within the SR. The changing of Ca2+ concentration is critical for protein interaction inside the SR which changes protein conformation to regulate the open probability of ryanodine receptors. Thus, it influences the threshold of Ca2+ released from the SR, making it easier to release Ca2+ during E-C coupling. In this review, we briefly discuss how Ca2+ handling protein variations affect the Ca2+ handling in CPVT.

Abstract
Diabetes mellitus (DM) and heart failure (HF) are comorbid conditions associated with significant morbidity and mortality worldwide. Despite the availability of novel and effective therapeutic options and intensive glycaemic control strategies, mortality and hospitalisation rates continue to remain high and the incidence of HF persists. In this review, we described the impact of currently available glucose-lowering therapies in DM with a focus on HF clinical outcomes. Non-conventional modes of management and alternative pathophysiological mechanisms with the potential for therapeutic targeting are also discussed.
