Does exercise training improve the control of spontaneous diastolic Ca(2+) waves in failing cardiomyocytes from rats with post-myocardial infarction heart failure?
Exercise training improves cardiomyocyte control of diastolic Ca(2+) by reducing wave frequency and improving the ability to abort spontaneous waves in a rat model of post-MI heart failure.
