Intracellular pH regulation in heart.
Intracellular pH (pHi) is an important modulator of cardiac excitation and contraction, and a potent trigger of electrical arrhythmia. This review outlines the intracellular and membrane mechanisms that control pHi in the cardiac myocyte. We consider the kinetic regulation of sarcolemmal H+, OH- and...
