Coupling to Gq Signaling Is Required for Cardioprotection by an Alpha-1A-Adrenergic Receptor Agonist.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Myocyte contractile dysfunction occurs in pathological remodeling in association with abnormalities in calcium regulation. Mice with cardiac myocyte-specific overexpression of Galphaq develop progressive left ventricular failure associated with myocyte contractile dysfunction and calcium dysregulation. OBJE...
