Defective intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis contributes to myocyte dysfunction during ventricular remodelling induced by chronic volume overload in rats.

abstract：:1. The aim of this study was to compare the effect of acute versus chronic ADH administration on the handling of sodium, potassium and water by the nephron. Simultaneous clearance and free-flow micropuncture experiments were performed on rats, infused with hypotonic Ringer solution, following either 1-3 h ('acute') or...
