Monocyte-endothelial cell interaction induces expression of adhesion molecules on human umbilical cord endothelial cells.

abstract：:Intracellular acidosis exerts substantial effects on the contractile performance of the heart. Soon after the onset of acidosis, contractility diminishes, largely due to a decrease in myofilament Ca(2+) responsiveness. This decrease in contractility is followed by a progressive recovery that occurs despite the persist...
