Biphasic restitution of action potential duration and complex dynamics in ventricular myocardium.

abstract：:Voltage-gated L-type Ca(2+) channels (LCCs) provide Ca(2+) ingress into cardiac myocytes and play a key role in intracellular Ca(2+) homeostasis and excitation-contraction coupling. We investigated the effects of a constitutive increase of LCC density on Ca(2+) signaling in ventricular myocytes from 4-month-old transg...
