Ischemia Enhances the Acute Stretch-Induced Increase in Calcium Spark Rate in Ventricular Myocytes
Introduction: In ventricular myocytes, spontaneous release of calcium (Ca2+) from the sarcoplasmic reticulum via ryanodine receptors (“Ca2+ sparks”) is acutely increased by stretch, due to a stretch-induced increase of reactive oxygen species (ROS). In acute regional ischemia there is stretch of isc...
