Distinct Effects of Mitochondrial Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger Inhibition and Ca2+ Uniporter Activation on Ca2+ Sparks and Arrhythmogenesis in Diabetic Rats

Background Mitochondrial dysfunction contributes to the cardiac remodeling triggered by type 2 diabetes (T2D). Mitochondrial Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]m) modulates the oxidative state and cytosolic Ca2+ regulation. Thus, we investigated how T2D affects mitochondrial Ca2+ fluxes, the downstream conse...
