Abstract

Background: In reverse-mode, cardiac sodium-calcium exchanger (NCX) can increase the cytoplasmic Ca2+ concentration in response to high intracellular Na+ levels, which may contribute to diastolic contractile dysfunction. Furthermore, increased spontaneous Ca2+ release from intracellular stores can activate forward mode NCX. The resulting transient inward current causes delayed ...
