Heart rate reduction after genetic ablation of L-type Cav1.3 channels induces cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury

BackgroundAcute myocardial infarction (AMI) is the major cause of cardiovascular mortality worldwide. Most ischemic episodes are triggered by an increase in heart rate, which induces an imbalance between myocardial oxygen delivery and consumption. Developing drugs that selectively reduce heart rate...
