Intracellular proton mobility and buffering power in cardiac ventricular myocytes from rat, rabbit, and guinea pig.

Intracellular pH (pHi) is an important modulator of cardiac function. The spatial regulation of pH within the cytoplasm depends, in part, on intracellular H+ (Hi+) mobility. The apparent diffusion coefficient for Hi+, DHapp, was estimated in single ventricular myocytes isolated from the rat, guinea...
