Soluble guanylyl cyclase activation improves progressive cardiac remodeling and failure after myocardial infarction. Cardioprotection over ACE inhibition.

abstract：:There is no doubt that major advances have been made in cardiac electrophysiology using single heart cells. Accurate analysis of rapid inward sodium current and the second inward current carried by calcium has resulted in a major re-examination of the steps involved in excitation-contraction coupling in the heart.
