Enhanced store-operated Ca2+ influx and ORAI1 expression in ventricular fibroblasts from human failing heart
Excessive cardiac fibrosis, characterized by increased collagen-rich extracellular matrix (ECM) deposition, is a major predisposing factor for mechanical and electrical dysfunction in heart failure (HF). The human ventricular fibroblast (hVF) remodeling mechanisms that cause excessive collagen depos...
