Resveratrol attenuates the Na(+)-dependent intracellular Ca(2+) overload by inhibiting H(2)O(2)-induced increase in late sodium current in ventricular myocytes.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Resveratrol has been demonstrated to be protective in the cardiovascular system. The aim of this study was to assess the effects of resveratrol on hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2))-induced increase in late sodium current (I(Na.L)) which augmented the reverse Na(+)-Ca(2+) exchanger curren...
