Involvement of the Na+/Ca2+ Exchanger in the Automaticity of Guinea-Pig Pulmonary Vein Myocardium as Revealed by SEA0400

Abstract.: We examined the involvement of the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger in the automaticity of the pulmonary vein myocardium with a specific inhibitor, SEA0400. Action potentials were recorded from the myocardial layer of isolated guinea-pig pulmonary vein preparations, and Ca2+ transients were recorded fr...
