In failing feline ventricular myocytes, reductions in Ca2+ influx due to altered early AP repolarization cause dyssynchronous SR Ca2+ release, suggesting that restoring normal early repolarization could improve contractility.
No takes yet. Share an insight, caveat, or question.
May support restoring early repolarization to improve Ca2+ release in HF; leaves open translation from feline models to patients.
Harris et al. (2005) studied this question.
