Abstract
Exercise training is generally beneficial for cardiovascular health, improving stroke volume, cardiac output, and aerobic capacity. Despite these benefits, some evidence indicates that endurance training may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation (AF), particularly in highly trained individuals. Among multiple mechanisms, autonomic tone changes and atrial remodeling have been proposed as main contributors for exercise-induced AF. However, the contribution of local and systemic immunity is poorly understood in the development of atrial arrhythmogenic substrates. Here we aim to update the field of immunomodulation in the context of exercise and AF by compiling and reconciling the most recent evidence from preclinical and human studies and rationalize the applicability of "lone" AF terminology in athletes.

Multisite phosphorylation of the cardiac ryanodine receptor: a random or coordinated event? Pflugers Arch 2020; 472:1793-1807.

Abstract
Many proteins are phosphorylated at more than one phosphorylation site to achieve precise tuning of protein function and/or integrate a multitude of signals into the activity of one protein. Increasing the number of phosphorylation sites significantly broadens the complexity of molecular mechanisms involved in processing multiple phosphorylation sites by one or more distinct kinases. The cardiac ryanodine receptor (RYR2) is a well-established multiple phospho-target of kinases activated in response to β-adrenergic stimulation because this Ca2+ channel is a critical component of Ca2+ handling machinery which is responsible for β-adrenergic enhancement of cardiac contractility. Our review presents a selective overview of the extensive, often conflicting, literature which focuses on identifying reliable lines of evidence to establish if multiple RYR2 phosphorylation is achieved randomly or in a specific sequence, and whether phosphorylation at individual sites is functionally specific and additive or similar and can therefore be substituted.

Abstract
AIMS Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited arrhythmia syndrome characterized by exercise-induced ventricular arrhythmias, sudden death, and sinus bradycardia. Elevating supraventricular rates with pacing or atropine protects against catecholaminergic ventricular arrhythmias in a CPVT mouse model. We tested the hypothesis that increasing sinus heart rate (HR) with atropine prevents exercise-induced ventricular arrhythmias in CPVT patients. METHODS AND RESULTS We performed a prospective open-label trial of atropine prior to exercise in CPVT patients (clinicaltrials.gov NCT02927223). Subjects performed a baseline standard Bruce treadmill test on their usual medical regimen. After a 2-h recovery period, subjects performed a second exercise test after parasympathetic block with atropine (0.04 mg/kg intravenous). The primary outcome measure was the total number of ventricular ectopic beats during exercise. All six subjects (5 men, 22-57 years old) completed the study with no adverse events. Atropine increased resting sinus rate from median 52 b.p.m. (range 52-64) to 98 b.p.m. (84-119), P = 0.02. Peak HRs (149 b.p.m., range 136-181 vs. 149 b.p.m., range 127-182, P = 0.46) and exercise duration (612 s, range 544-733 vs. 584 s, range 543-742, P = 0.22) were not statistically different. All subjects had ventricular ectopy during the baseline exercise test. Atropine pre-treatment significantly decreased the median number of ventricular ectopic beats from 46 (6-192) to 0 (0-29), P = 0.026; ventricular ectopy was completely eliminated in 4/6 subjects. CONCLUSION Elevating sinus rates with atropine reduces or eliminates exercise-induced ventricular ectopy in patients with CPVT. Increasing supraventricular rates may represent a novel therapeutic strategy in CPVT.

The Hyperpolarization-Activated Cyclic-Nucleotide-Gated Channel Blocker Ivabradine Does Not Prevent Arrhythmias in Catecholaminergic Polymorphic Ventricular Tachycardia.

Abstract
Catecholaminergic polymorphic ventricular tachycardia (CPVT) is an inherited, stressed-provoked ventricular arrhythmia. CPVT is treated by β-adrenergic receptor blockers, Na+ channel inhibitors, sympathetic denervation, or by implanting a defibrillator. We showed recently that blockers of SK4 Ca2+-activated K+ channels depolarize the maximal diastolic potential, reduce the heart rate, and attenuate ventricular arrhythmias in CPVT. The aim of the present study was to examine whether the pacemaker channel inhibitor, ivabradine could demonstrate anti-arrhythmic properties in CPVT like other bradycardic agents used in this disease and to compare them with those of the SK4 channel blocker, TRAM-34. The effects of ivabradine were examined on the arrhythmic beating of human induced pluripotent stem cells derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) from CPVT patients, on sinoatrial node (SAN) calcium transients, and on ECG measurements obtained from transgenic mice model of CPVT. Ivabradine did neither prevent the arrhythmic pacing of hiPSC-CMs derived from CPVT patients, nor preclude the aberrant SAN calcium transients. In contrast to TRAM-34, ivabradine was unable to reduce in vivo the ventricular premature complexes and ventricular tachyarrhythmias in transgenic CPVT mice. In conclusion, ivabradine does not exhibit anti-arrhythmic properties in CPVT, which indicates that this blocker cannot be used as a plausible treatment for CPVT ventricular arrhythmias.
