Neprilysin mediated cleavage of phospholamban dysregulates SERCA in heart failure
2026-06-29
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Neprilysin (NEP) is a zinc-dependent metalloprotease targeted in heart failure therapy to prevent it degrading circulating cardioprotective vasoactive peptides. NEP can also cleave sarcolipin (SLN), the skeletal- and atrial muscle-specific micropeptide regulator of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca 2+ -ATPase (SERCA). A direct pathophysiological role of NEP in ventricular muscle has not been esta...
