Nitric oxide does not modulate the hyperpolarization-activated current, I(f), in ventricular myocytes from spontaneously hypertensive rats.

OBJECTIVE: : In sinoatrial (SA) node cells, nitric oxide (NO) exerts a dual effect on the hyperpolarization-activated current, I(f), i.e. in basal conditions NO enhances I(f) whereas in the presence of beta-adrenergic stimulation it decreases it. Recent studies have shown that I(f) is present in ven...
