Hepatic uptake of indocyanine green and perfusion rate in rats: effect of age and albumin concentration.

abstract：:We found when L-type calcium current (ICa-L) was recorded with the perforated patch-clamp method in rat ventricular myocytes that bath application of phenylephrine (with propranolol) evoked a biphasic response characterized by an initial transient suppression followed by a sustained potentiation. The transient suppres...
